Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Chevrolet Spark. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Verify the integrity of the entire air induction system and verify that none of the following conditions exist:
    • Any damaged components
    • An air flow restriction
    • Any vacuum leak
    • Improperly routed vacuum hoses
    • A restriction in the MAP Sensor port or the BARO port
    • Proper operation of the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system
    • In cold climates, inspect for any snow or ice buildup at the BARO port on the ECM
    • Missing, restricted or leaking exhaust components. Refer to Symptoms - Engine Exhaust .
    • Engine mechanical condition; for example: low compression or incorrect timing chain installation. Refer to Symptoms - Engine Mechanical .
    • If a condition is found 

      If a condition is found, repair or replace the component as appropriate.

    • If no condition is found 
  2. Ignition OFF, and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down. Disconnect the harness connector at the B74 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor.
  3. Test for less than 2 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If less than 2 Ω 
  4. Ignition ON.
  5. Test for 4.8 - 5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than 4.8 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the 5 V reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
      NOTE:

      If the signal circuit is shorted to a voltage the ECM or the MAP Sensor may be damaged.

    • If greater than 5.2 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If between 4.8 - 5.2 V 
  6. Ignition ON.
  7. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is greater than 4.7 V.
    • If 4.7 V or less 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Ignition ON, test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If greater than 4.7 V 
  8. Ignition OFF, install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and the low reference circuit terminal 2.
  9. Ignition ON.
  10. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor voltage parameter is less than 0.2 V.
    • If 0.2 V or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, remove the jumper wire, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module, Ignition ON.
    2. test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V
    3. Ignition OFF.
    4. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open or high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If less than 0.2 V 
  11. Test or replace the B74 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor.
