Electronic Vehicle Information Center Switch

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - EVIC CONTROL SWITCH






NOTE: The following test confirms only correct Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) switch functions. It does not test or confirm any of the Local Interface Network (LIN) slave node inputs, outputs or functions. LIN slave node testing requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

1. Remove the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) switch pod from the steering wheel. Electronic Vehicle Information Center Switch - Removal.
2. Disconnect the steering wheel wire harness connector from the back of the EVIC switch pod.
3. Using an ohmmeter, test the resistance between the terminals of the switch as shown in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center Switch Tests table.





4. If the switch fails any of the tests, replace the ineffective EVIC switch pod as required.
