Test Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Pontiac Vibe. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
- 1: The Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prompts the technician to complete some basic checks and store the Freeze Frame data on the scan tool if applicable. This creates an electronic copy of the data taken when the fault occurred. The information is then stored in the scan tool for later reference.
- 2: This step checks for a low voltage on the input circuit. If the scan tool reads 140° C (284° F), the input circuit is shorted to ground.
- 3: This step determines if DTC P0112 is the result of a hard failure or an intermittent condition.
