IMPORTANT:
If a solar load sensor has an out of range condition caused by a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance, the scan tool will display the same value: 225 counts.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the sunload sensor.
- Test for less than 10 ohms between the ground circuit terminal C and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the ground circuit terminal C and the signal circuit terminal A.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the sunload 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.
