1. Steering Wheel Controls Inoperative
|
|
|
Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) supplies voltage to the audio
steering wheel control switches and monitors the return signal.
Each switch state is associated to a set resistance value and when
pressed a specific voltage drop occurs across the resistor unique
to the switch. The BCM identifies the switch selection and
activates the feature.
Diagnostic Aids
• |
This diagnostic is for the
audio steering wheel controls. |
• |
Before diagnosis of the
steering wheel controls, ensure the primary controls of the
associated component are functioning properly. |

Circuit/System Testing
1. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the
S70R Steering Wheel Controls Switch - Right. |
2. |
Ignition ON, test for greater
than 11 V between the voltage reference circuit terminal 1 and
ground. |
⇒ |
If less than the specified value, test the voltage
reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 Body Control
Module. |
3. |
Test for greater than 11 V
between the voltage reference circuit terminal 1 and the signal
circuit terminal 2. |
⇒ |
If less than the specified value, test the signal
circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the
circuit tests normal, replace the K9 Body Control Module. |
4. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the
X3 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module. |
5. |
Test for infinite resistance
between the signal circuit terminal 2 at the S70R Steering Wheel
Controls Switch - Right and ground. |
⇒ |
If less than the specified value, test the signal
circuit for a short to ground. |
6. |
If all circuits test normal,
test or replace the S70R Steering Wheel Controls Switch -
Right. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the
Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic
procedure.
