Diagnostic Aids

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Use the J 35616 Connector Test Adapter Kit for any test that requires probing the ECM harness connector or a component harness connector.
The lower connector of the ECM is connector C1 and the upper connector of the ECM is connector C2. Refer to Engine Controls Component Views .
An engine that soaks for about 8 hours will help diagnose the condition. After the cold soak, operate the vehicle at highway speeds for 20 minutes while monitoring the Calculated ECT - Thermostat parameter with a scan tool. If there is a condition, the calculated temperature will be 10°C (50°F) more then the actual engine coolant temperature.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Intermittent Conditions .
