The wiring schematic is the cornerstone of electrical diagnosis. Schematics break the entire electrical system into individual circuits, showing theelectrical current paths when a circuit is operating properly. Wiring which is not part of the circuit of interest is referenced to where the circuit is showncomplete. Schematics use a top (power) to bottom (ground) sequence to present electrical information.

When diagnosing a horn problem use the service information located in the Horns service category. The following schematic is a typical example of aschematic with its supporting text.

Micro-Pack 100 Terminal Repair

NOTE:

Use the Connector Test Adapter kit J 35616-/ for any test that requires probing the following items:^

The PCM harness connectors
^ The electrical center fuse/relay cavities
^ The component terminals
^ The component harness connector

Using this kit will prevent damage caused by the improper probing of connector terminals.

Use care when probing connectors and replacing terminals. A short between opposite terminals may damage components. Use jumper wiresbetween connectors when testing circuits. DO NOT probe through WeatherpackTM seals. The J 35616 connector test adapter kit is the onlyrecommended method of probing the following components:^

Connectors
^ Terminals
^ Fuse blocks
^

Relay blocksThe J 35616 connector test adapter kit contains an assortment of flexible connectors used in order to probe the components listed above.

Open circuits may be difficult to locate visually because oxidation or terminal misalignment are hidden by the connectors. Wiggling a connectoron a sensor or in the wiring harness may temporarily correct the open circuit. Intermittent problems may be caused by oxidized or looseconnections. Verify the type of connector/terminal before performing any connector repair or terminal repair.

Terminal Position Assurance Locks

(TPA)

The Terminal Position Assurance insert resembles the plastic combs used in the control module connectors. The TPA keeps the terminal securelyseated in the connector body. Do not remove the TPA from the connector body unless you remove a terminal for replacement.

Weather Pack Connectors

The following is the proper procedure for the repair of Weather Pack Connectors.

^ Separate the connector halves (1).
^ Open the secondary lock. A secondary lock aids in terminal retention and is usually molded to the connector (1).
^ Grasp the wire and push the terminal to the forward most position. Hold the wire in this position.

Basic Knowledge Required

(volts) (amps) (ohms)

Without a basic knowledge of electricity, it will be difficult to use the diagnostic procedures contained in this section. You should understand the basictheory of electricity and know the meaning of voltage , current and resistance . You should understand what happens in a circuitwith an open or a shorted wire. You should be able to read and understand a wiring diagram.
The following four-step troubleshooting procedure is recommended:

Read the Electrical Schematic

Study the schematic and read the Circuit Description text to gain an understanding of how the circuit should work. Check circuits that share wiringwith the problem circuit. (Shared circuits are shown on Power Distribution and Ground Distribution.) Try to operate the shared circuits. If theshared circuits work, then the shared wiring is OK. The cause must be within the wiring used only by the problem circuit. If several circuits fail atthe same time, chances are the power (fuse) or ground circuit is faulty.

Find the fault and repair

Narrow down the possible causes.^

Check System Fuse(s).
^ Check System Ground(s)
^ For systems with bulb failures, check bulb(s) prior to beginning diagnostic tables.
^ Perform a visual inspection of system components, and accessible related wiring prior to beginning diagnostic tables.

Make the necessary measurements or checks as given in the System Diagnosis.

Before replacing a component, check power, signal and ground wires at the component harness connector. If the checks and connections are OK,the most probable cause is component failure.

Information and Instructions > Page 27

Envoy 2WD V6-4.3L VIN W (1998)

Check the Problem

Perform a System Check to determine a symptom. Don't waste time fixing part of the problem! Do not begin disassembly or testing until you havenarrowed down the possible causes.

Repeat the System Check to verify that the fault has been corrected and that no other faults were induced during the repair.Test the Repair

Checking Aftermarket Accessories

Do not connect aftermarket accessories into the following circuits:IMPORTANT:

^

SIR circuits, all such circuits are indicated on circuit diagrams with the SIR symbol. Refer to SIR Service Precautions Caution in Cautions andNotices.

^

OBD II Symbol Description Notice

OBDII circuits, all such circuits are indicated on circuit diagrams with the OBDII symbol. Refer to inCautions and Notices.

Always check for aftermarket accessories (non-OEM) as the first step in diagnosing electrical problems. If the vehicle is so equipped, disconnect thesystem to verify that these add-on accessories are not the cause of the problems.

Possible causes of vehicle problems related to aftermarket accessories include:

^ Power feeds connected to points other than the battery.
^ Antenna location.
^ Transceiver wiring located too close to vehicle electronic modules or wiring.
^ Poor shielding or poor connectors on antenna feed line.
^ Check for recent service bulletins detailing installation guidelines for aftermarket accessories.

Intermittent and Poor Connections

Most intermittents are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. Inspect for the following items:

^ Wiring broken inside the insulation.
^

Testing for Proper Terminal Contact

Poor connection between the male and female terminal at a connector. Refer to below for the specificprocedure.

^

Poor terminal to wire connection. Some conditions which fall under this description are poor crimps, poor solder joints, crimping over wire theinsulation rather than the wire itself and corrosion in the wire to terminal contact area, etc.

^ Wire insulation which is rubbed through. This causes an intermittent short as the bare area touches other wiring or parts of the vehicle.
^

Refer to Testing for Electrical Intermittents for test procedures to detect intermittent open, high resistance, short to ground, and short to voltageconditions.

Testing for Proper Terminal Contact

It is important to test terminal contact at the component and any in-line connectors before replacing a suspect component. Mating terminals mustbe inspected to ensure good terminal contact. A poor connection between the make and female terminal at a connector may be the result ofcontamination or deformation.

> Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Accessories and Optional Equipment > Accessory Delay Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram

Information and Instructions > Page 28

Envoy 2WD V6-4.3L VIN W (1998)

Contamination may be caused by the connector halves being improperly connected. A missing or damaged connector seal, damage to theconnector itself, or exposing the terminals to moisture and dirt can also cause contamination. Contamination, usually in the underhood orunderbody connectors, leads to terminal corrosion, causing an open circuit or intermittently open circuit.

Deformation is caused by probing the mating side of a connector terminal without the proper adapter, improperly joining the connector halves, orrepeatedly separating and joining the connector halves. Deformation, usually to the female terminal contact tang, can result in poor terminalcontact causing an open or intermittently open circuit.

Round Wire Connectors

Follow the procedure below to test terminal contact of Metri-Pack or 56 series terminals. Refer to the J38125-B Terminal Repair Kit or the J38125-4 Instruction Manual for terminal identification. Follow the procedure below in order to test terminal contact.1. Separate the connector halves.2. Visually inspect the connector halves for contamination.

Contamination may result in a white or green build-up within the connector body or between terminals. This causes high terminal resistance,

intermittent contact, or an open circuit. An underhood or underbody connector that shows signs of contamination should be replaced in itsentirety: terminals, seals, and connector body.

3. Using an equivalent male terminal from the J 38125-B, test that the retention force is significantly different between a good terminal and

suspect terminal. Replace the female terminal in question.

There are no serviceable parts for flat wire (dock and lock) connectors on the harness side or the component side.Flat Wire (Dock and Lock) Connectors

Follow the procedure below in order to test terminal contact.1. Remove the component in question.2. Visually inspect each side of the connector for signs of contamination. Avoid touching either side of the connector as oil from your skin may

be a source of contamination as well.

3. Visually inspect the terminal bearing surfaces of the flat wire circuits for splits, cracks, or other imperfections that could cause poor terminal

contact. Visually inspect the component side connector to ensure that all of the terminals are uniform and free of damage or deformation.

4. Insert the appropriate adapter from the J 42675 Flat Wire Probe Adapter Kit on the flat wire harness connector in order to test the circuit in

question.

Symptom Diagnostic Example

The following is an example of a symptom and the correct course of action taken by the technician.

IMPORTANT:

Research for possible bulletins, DTCs and the vehicle's service history. Also, thoroughly screen the customer regarding the problem inorder to complete the repair of the vehicle and completely satisfy the customer when a DTC or a symptom diagnosis is not available.

Verify the Customer Concern, Check the Problem

Customer complaint is the headlamps are inoperative. Verify the normal operating procedure of the circuit and the components that share thatcircuit. Refer to Strategy Based Diagnosis.

Review the Headlamps Electrical Schematic (Preliminary Checks)

Review the schematic, it is essential to understand how a circuit should work before trying to figure out why it doesn't. After understanding how acircuit should operate, read the schematic again, this time keeping in mind what has been learned by operating the circuit. Since both the low beamheadlamps are inoperative, ensure that the following components are operating properly.^

The headlamp Switch.
^ The YEL wire.
^ Low contacts of the Headlamp Dimmer Switch.
^ C100 terminal 1E.
^ The TAN wires.
^

Grounds G105 and G109.Refer to Strategy Based Diagnosis.

Perform the System Check

The system check indicates that the low beam headlamps operate when the highbeam switch is in high. Also, the high beam indicator illuminatesbut neither high beam headlamp operates. Refer to Strategy Based Diagnosis.

Utilizing a combination of Techline tools and the information accumulated from the Preliminary Checks, check for bulletins.Check for Bulletins

Isolate the Root Cause

At this point analyze and (diagnose the problem), and develop text. Since the high beam indicator illuminated when the headlamp dimmer switchwas in the high position, the high contacts of the headlamp dimmer switch and the LT GRN wire between the headlamp dimmer switch and C100are good.

At this point, it is extremely unlikely that the high beam filaments in the RH headlamp are both open or that both headlamp connections are bad.The cause must be a bad connection at C100 or an open in the LT GRN wire between C100 and the RH headlamp.

Envoy 2WD V6-4.3L VIN W (1998)

Repair and Verify Fix

From isolating the root cause, basically the problem has been diagnosed. Using the Component Location Table and the corresponding figure,quickly find C100 and the LT GRN wire, locate the exact trouble point and make the repair.

Check the thoroughness of the repair by performing a final system check on the headlamp circuit. This of course means making sure that both highbeams, both low beams, and the high beam indicator are working.

^ When the DMM displays voltage the short is in the wiring leading to the first connector or switch.
^ If the DMM does not display voltage refer to the next step.

4. Close each connector or switch until the DMM displays voltage in order to find which circuit is shorted.

Test Lamp

Refer to in Cautions and Notices.NOTE: Test Probe Notice

A test lamp can simply and quickly test a low impedance circuit for voltage.

The J 34142-B Test Lamp is Micro-Pack compatible and comprised of a light bulb with an attached pair of leads.12 volt

> Relays and Modules > Relays and Modules - Accessories and Optional Equipment > Accessory Delay Module > Component Information > Diagrams > Diagram

Information and Instructions > Page 31

Envoy 2WD V6-4.3L VIN W (1998)

To properly operate this tool use the following procedure.

1. Attach one lead to ground.2. Touch the other lead to various points along the circuit where voltage should be present.3. When the bulb illuminates, there is voltage at the point being tested.

Digital Multimeter

Refer to in Cautions and Notices.NOTE: Test Probe Notice

IMPORTANT: 10 megohm

Circuits which include any solid state control modules, such as the PCM, should only be tested with a or higher impedancedigital multimeter such as the J 39200.
The J 39200 Instruction Manual is a good source of information and should be read thoroughly upon receipt of the DMM as well as kept on hand for

future reference.

A DMM should be used instead of a test lamp in order to test for voltage in high impedance circuits. While a test lamp shows whether voltage is present,a DMM indicates how much voltage is present.

The ohmmeter function on a DMM shows how much resistance exists between two points along a circuit. Low resistance in a circuit means goodcontinuity.

IMPORTANT:

Disconnect the power feed from the suspect circuit when measuring resistance with a DMM. This prevents incorrect readings. DMMsapply such a small voltage to measure resistance that the presence of voltages can upset a resistance reading.

Diodes and solid state components in a circuit can cause a DMM to display a false reading. To find out if a component is affecting a measurement take areading once, then reverse the leads and take a second reading. If the readings differ the solid state component is affecting the measurement.
Following are examples of the various methods of connecting the DMM to the circuit to be tested:

^

Backprobe both ends of the connector and either hold the leads in place while manipulating the connector or tape the leads to the harness forcontinuous monitoring while you perform other operations or test driving. Refer to Probing Electrical Connectors.

^ Disconnect the harness at both ends of the suspected circuit where it connects either to a component or to other harnesses.
^

If the system that is being diagnosed has a specified pinout or breakout box, it may be used in order to simplify connecting the DMM to the circuitor for testing multiple circuits quickly.

Short Finder

The J 8681-A can locate hidden shorts to ground. The short finder creates a pulsing magnetic field in the shorted circuit and shows the location of theshort through the body trim or sheet metal.

Probing Electrical Connectors

IMPORTANT: (CPA) (TPA)

Always be sure to reinstall the Connector Position Assurance and Terminal Position Assurance when reconnectingconnectors or replacing terminals.

Disconnect the connector and probe the terminals from the mating side (front) of the connector.Frontprobe

Do not disconnect the connector and probe the terminals from the harness side (back) of the connector.Backprobe

^IMPORTANT:

Backprobe connector terminals only when specifically required in diagnostic procedures.

Do not backprobe a sealed (Weather Pack) connector, less than a 280 series Metri-Pack connector, a Micro-Pack connector, or a flat wire(dock and lock) connector.

^

Backprobing can be a source of damage to connector terminals. Use care in order to avoid deforming the terminal, either by forcing the testprobe too far into the cavity or by using too large of a test probe.

^ After backprobing any connector, inspect for terminal damage. If terminal damage is suspected, test for proper terminal contact.

Connector Test Adapters

NOTE:

Do not insert test equipment probes into any connector or fuse block terminal. The diameter of the test probes will deform most terminals. Adeformed terminal can cause a poor connection, which can result in system failures. Always use the J 35616-A Connector Test Adapter Kit or the J42675 Flat Wire Probe Adapter Kit in order to frontprobe terminals. Do not use paper clips or other substitutes as they can damage terminals and causeincorrect measurements.

Envoy 2WD V6-4.3L VIN W (1998)

NOTE:

Do not insert test equipment probes into any connector or fuse block terminal. The diameter of the test probes will deform mostterminals. A deformed terminal can cause a poor connection, which can result in system failures. Always use the J 35616-A Connector TestAdapter Kit or the J 42675 Flat Wire Probe Adapter Kit in order to frontprobe terminals. Do not use paper clips or other substitutes as they candamage terminals and cause incorrect measurements.

IMPORTANT:

A fused jumper may not protect solid state components from beingdamaged.

The J 36169-A fused jumper includes small clamp connectors that provide adaptation to most connectors without damage. This fused jumper wire issupplied with a 20 A fuse which may not be suitable for some circuits. Do not use a fuse with a higher rating than the fuse that protects the circuit beingtested.

Circuit Breakers

A circuit breaker is a protective device that is designed to open the circuit when a current load is in excess of the rated breaker capacity. If there is a shortor other type of overload condition in the circuit, the excessive current will open the circuit between the circuit breaker terminals. Two types of circuitbreakers are used.

Circuit Breaker:

This type opens when excessive current passes through it for a period of time. It closes again after a few seconds, and if thecause of the high current is still present, it will open again. The circuit breaker will continue to cycle open and closed until the condition causingthe high current is removed.

Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) Circuit Breaker:

This type greatly increases its resistance when excessive current passes through it.The excessive current heats the PTC device, as the device heats its resistance increases. Eventually the resistance gets so high that the circuit iseffectively open. Unlike the ordinary circuit breaker the PTC unit will not reset until the circuit is opened, by removing the voltage from itsterminals. Once the voltage is removed the circuit breaker will re-close within a second or two.

Fuses

The fuse is the most common method of an automotive wiring circuit protection. Whenever there is an excessive amount of current flowing through acircuit the fusible element will melt and create an open or incomplete circuit. Fuses are an one time protection device and must be replaced each time thecircuit is overloaded. To determine if a fuse is open, remove the suspected fuse and examine the element in the fuse for an open (break). If not broken,also check for continuity using a J 39200 DMM or a continuity tester. If the element is open or continuity is suspect, replace the fuse with one of equalcurrent rating.

Fusible Links

Fuse Types

Information and Instructions > Page 33

Envoy 2WD V6-4.3L VIN W (1998)

Fusible link is wire designed to melt and break continuity when excessive current is applied. It is often located between or near the battery and starter orelectrical center. Use a continuity tester or a J 39200 DMM at each end of the wire containing the fusible link in order to determine if it is broken. Ifbroken, it must be replaced with fusible link of the same gage size.

Repairing a Fusible Link

IMPORTANT: 225 mm (approx. 9 inches)

Fusible links cut longer than will not provide sufficient overload protection. Refer to SplicingCopper Wire Using Splice Clips.

Flat Wire Repairs

NOTE:

The flat wire within the flex wiring harness is not serviceable. If an open or short exists within the flex wiring harness the complete harnessmust be replaced.

H02S Wiring Repairs

Do not solder repairs under any circumstances as this could result in the air reference being obstructed.NOTE:

If the heated oxygen sensor pigtail wiring, connector, or terminal is damaged the entire oxygen sensor assembly must be replaced. Do not attempt torepair the wiring, connector, or terminals. In order for the sensor to function properly it must have a clean air reference. This clean air reference isobtained by way of the oxygen sensor signal and heater wires. Any attempt to repair the wires, connectors or terminals could result in the obstruction ofthe air reference and degrade oxygen sensor performance.
The following guidelines should be used when servicing the heated oxygen sensor:

^

Do not apply contact cleaner or other materials to the sensor or vehicle harness connectors. These materials may get into the sensor, causing poorperformance. Also, the sensor pigtail and harness wires must not be damaged in such a way that the wires inside are exposed. This could provide apath for foreign materials to enter the sensor and cause performance problems.

^

Neither the sensor nor vehicle lead wires should be bent sharply or kinked. Sharp bends, kinks, etc., could block the reference air path through thelead wire.

^

Do not remove or defeat the oxygen sensor ground wire (where applicable). Vehicles that utilize the ground wire sensor may rely on this ground asthe only ground contact to the sensor. Removal of the ground wire will also cause poor engine performance.

^ To prevent damage due to water intrusion, be sure that the peripheral seal remains intact on the vehicle harness connector.

The engine harness may be repaired using the J38 125-B.
