Diagnostic Test

  1. AAT SENSOR VOLTAGE ABOVE 4.98 VOLTS 
    1. Ignition on, engine not running.
    2. With a scan tool, read the AAT voltage.

      Is the voltage above 4.98 volts?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  2

      No 

  2. AAT SENSOR 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the AAT harness connector.
    3. Connect a jumper wire between the (G31) AAT Signal circuit and the (G931) AAT Return circuit in the AAT harness connector.
    4. Ignition on, engine not running.
    5. With a scan tool, read AAT voltage.

      Is the voltage below 1.0 volt with the jumper wire installed?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  3
  3. (G31) AAT SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO BATTERY VOLTAGE 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
      NOTE: Remove the jumper wire before continuing.
    2. Disconnect the C2 TIPM harness connectors.
    3. Ignition on, engine not running.
    4. Measure the voltage on the (G31) AAT Signal circuit in the AAT Sensor harness connector.

      Is voltage present?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  4
  4. (G31) AAT SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Measure the resistance of the (G31) AAT Signal circuit between he AAT Sensor harness connector and C4 TIPM harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  5

      No 

  5. (G931) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN 
    1. Measure the resistance of the (G931) Sensor Ground circuit between the AAT Sensor harness connector and the C2 TIPM harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  6

      No 

  6. TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) 
    NOTE: Before continuing, check the TIPM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.
    1. Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors. Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.

      Were there any problems found?

      Yes 

      No
