Battery Sensor Input Test

NOTE: Before testing, make sure the battery ground cable is installed correctly, and make sure there is continuity between the battery negative terminal and ground terminal G1.
  1. Disconnect the 2P connector (A) from the battery sensor (B).

  2. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to step 3.
  3. With the 2P connector still disconnected, do the following input tests:
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, replace the battery sensor.
Cavity Wire Test Condition Test: Desired result Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
2 GRN Under all conditions Measure the voltage to ground:
There should be battery voltage.
  • Blown No. 9 (7.5 A) fuse in the main under-hood fuse box
  • Faulty main under-hood fuse box
  • An open or high resistance in the wire
1 PNK Under all conditions Check for continuity between terminal No. 1 and gauge control module connector B (24P) terminal No. 7:
There should be continuity.
An open or high resistance in the wire
