Circuit/System Testing

2025 Chevrolet Tahoe Commercial, RWDSECTION Circuit/System Testing
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the connector at the appropriate B166 Parking Assist Sensor:
    • DTC B13AE = B166LF Parking Assist Sensor - Side Left Front
    • DTC B13AF = B166RF Parking Assist Sensor - Side Right Front
  2. Verify a test lamp illuminates between low reference terminal 3 and B+
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate 
    1. Test circuit 5214 for an open/high resistance.
      • If an open/high resistance is found, repair the fault on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If an open/high resistance is not found
    2. Replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module
    • Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminates 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Test for greater than 6 V between voltage reference terminal 1 and ground.
    • If 6 V or less 
    1. Test circuit 6581 for a short to ground.
      • If a short to ground is found, repair the fault on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If a short to ground is not found
    2. Test circuit 6581 for an open/high resistance
      • If an open/high resistance is found, repair the fault on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If an open/high resistance is not found
    3. Replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module
    • Go to next step: If greater than 6 V 
  5. Test for 4.0 - 12.0 V between terminal 2 and ground.
    • If less than 4.0 V 
    1. Test the appropriate circuit for a short to ground:
      • DTC B13AE = Circuit 3154
      • DTC B13AF = Circuit 3155
      • If a short to ground is found, repair the fault on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If a short to ground is not found
    2. Test the appropriate circuit for an open/high resistance:
      • DTC B13AE = Circuit 3154
      • DTC B13AF = Circuit 3155
      • If an open/high resistance is found, repair the fault on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If an open/high resistance is not found
    3. Replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module
    • If greater than 12.0 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 connector at the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    2. Test the appropriate circuit for a short to voltage:
      • DTC B13AE = Circuit 3154
      • DTC B13AF = Circuit 3155
      • If a short to voltage is found, repair the fault on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If a short to voltage is not found
    3. Replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module
    • Go to next step: If between 4.0 - 12.0 V 
  6. Replace the appropriate B166 Parking Assist Sensor.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
