Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 GMC Sierra and 2004 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.

| 12 | Visually inspect the CKP reluctor wheel for the following conditions:
Refer to Crankshaft Position (CKP) Reluctor Ring Replacement in Engine Mechanical. Did you find and correct the condition? |
- | Go to Step 16 | Go to Step 14 |
| 13 | Test for an intermittent and for a poor connection at the PCM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections
and Repairing Connector Terminals
in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? |
- | Go to Step 16 | Go to Step 15 |
| 14 | Replace the CKP sensor. Refer to Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Replacement
. Did you complete the replacement? |
- | Go to Step 16 | - |
| 15 | Replace the PCM. Refer to Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Replacement
. Did you complete the replacement? |
