Testing with EL-38522-A

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. Perform the following test using a EL-38522-A  Variable Signal Generator or equivalent, if available.
    NOTE: In-correct diagnosis will result if Circuit/System Testing is not completed before performing the following test.
  2. Ignition Off, connect the leads of the EL-38522-A  Variable Signal Generator as follows:
    1. Red lead to the signal circuit terminal 8 at the harness connector
    2. Black leads to ground
    3. Battery voltage supply lead to B+
  3. Set the EL-38522-A  Variable Signal Generator to the following specifications.
    • Signal switch to 5 V
    • Duty Cycle switch to 50% (Normal)
    • Frequency switch to 250 Hz
  4. Ignition On.
  5. Verify the scan tool IAT Sensor 2 parameters listed below are within the ranges listed below:
    • IAT Sensor 2 is between 248 - 252 Hz
    • IAT Sensor 2 is between 70 - 76°C (160 - 166°F)
      NOTE: Changing the frequency should cause a warmer or colder IAT 2 temperature.
    • Intake Air Humidity Sensor is between 48 - 52%
      NOTE: Increasing or decreasing the duty cycle should have an inverse affect on humidity.
    • If a parameter is not within the specified range 

      Replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
