- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the EBCM.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1.0 ohm of resistance between the ground circuit and ground.
- If the greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open / high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the EBCM.
- Measure the voltage at the battery terminals.
- Ignition ON, observe the scan tool EBCM ignition voltage parameter. Verify that battery terminal voltage and ignition voltage readings do not differ more than 1-volt.
- If greater than the specified value, test the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open / high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the EBCM.
- Go to CHARGING SYSTEM TEST

- • 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.
