Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra and 2009 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, open the hood to disable the Auto-Stop function. Refer to Hybrid Modes of Operation Description .
- Ignition ON, verify the scan tool hood position parameter displays Open.
- If the hood position does not display Open, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle for DTC P254F.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the CMP actuator solenoid harness connector, X112.
- Test for less than 3 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal E and ground on the ECM side of the harness.
- If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the low reference circuit terminal E and the control circuit terminal D on the ECM side of the harness.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Remove the test lamp.
- Command the CMP actuator from 0-20 degrees. Verify the scan tool CMP actuator ckt short to volts test status parameter is OK.
- If not the specified value, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the control circuit terminal D and the low reference circuit terminal E on the ECM side of the harness. Command the CMP actuator to 20 degrees with a scan tool. Verify the scan tool CMP actuator ckt short to volts test status parameter is displaying Fault.
- If not the specified value, test the control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Remove the water pump from the engine. Refer to Water Pump Removal .
- Inspect and test the remaining CMP solenoid wire harness from X112 to the CMP solenoid for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the CMP actuator solenoid.
NOTE:
You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.
