Circuit/System Testing

2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer RS, 4WDSECTION Circuit/System Testing
  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S30 Headlamp Switch, ignition ON.
  2. Test for B+ between the B+ circuit terminal 12 and ground.
    • If less than B+ 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the B+ circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the B+ circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If B+ 
  3. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 12 and the low reference circuit terminal 7.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the low reference circuit terminal 7 and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If less than 1 V
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminates 
  4. Verify a test lamp does not illuminate between the B+ circuit terminal 12 and the signal circuit terminal 11.
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If the test lamp does not illuminate 
  5. Test for B+ between the B+ circuit terminal 12 and the signal circuit terminal 11.
    • If less than B+ 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal 11 and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If less than 1 V
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If B+ 
  6. Test or replace the S30 Headlamp Switch.

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.
