Checking the Ground Terminal for the Steering Wheel Module
Checking the ground terminal for the steering wheel module
Checking the ground terminal
- Ignition off
- the control module disconnected
- Switch off all equipment that takes power from the battery (courtesy lighting, radio etc).
Connect an ohmmeter between terminal #16 on the breakout box and the battery negative terminal.
To connect the breakout box, see Connecting the breakout box Connecting the Breakout Box, Steering Wheel Module (SWM).
The ohmmeter should read approximately 0 ohms.
OK - Fault Found
Not OK - Contact Resistance And Oxidation
-------------------------------------------------
Checking for open-circuits, contact resistance and oxidation
For the control module,check ground terminal 31/84 and the wiring connected to it. Check for an open-circuit. Check for contact resistance and oxidation.
