WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2007 GMC Yukon XL, 2007 GMC Yukon, 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2007 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Multifunction Switch
- With the ignition OFF, disconnect the C1 harness connector at the turn signal/multifunction switch.
- Test the resistance between terminals H and L. Rotate the wiper switch and compare the resistance readings to the values in the Windshield Wiper Switch Values table below for MIST, each DELAY and LOW speed.
- If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the turn signal/multifunction switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between terminals H and K while rotating the wiper switch to MIST, each DELAY and LOW speed positions.
- If the less than infinite, replace the turn signal/multifunction switch.
- Test for less than 5 ohms of resistance with the wiper switch in the High speed position.
- If greater than 5 ohm, replace the turn signal/multifunction switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between terminals H and J while rotating the wiper switch to MIST, each DELAY and LOW speed positions.
- If less than infinite, replace the turn signal/multifunction switch.
- Test for less than 5 ohm of resistance while pressing the WASHER switch.
- If greater than 5 ohm, replace the turn signal/multifunction switch.
IMPORTANT:
If the switch tests open in any switch position other than Off, test the wiper/washer switch signal circuits for a short to voltage before replacing the switch.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
