- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 4
- (K235) SRV SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE
- Measure the voltage of the (K235) SRV Signal circuit in the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Repair the (K235) SRV Signal circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 5
- Measure the voltage of the (K235) SRV Signal circuit in the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector.
- (K235) SRV SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (F856) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT
- Measure the resistance between the (K235) SRV Signal circuit and the (F856) 5-Volt Supply in the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector.
Is the resistance below 100 ohms?
Yes
- Repair the (K235) SRV Signal circuit for a short to the (F856) 5-Volt Supply circuit.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 6
- Measure the resistance between the (K235) SRV Signal circuit and the (F856) 5-Volt Supply in the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector.
- (K235) SRV SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (K235) SRV Signal circuit in the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector.
Is the resistance above 100 ohms?
Yes
- Go to step 7
No
- Repair the (K235) SRV Signal circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (K235) SRV Signal circuit in the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector.
- (K235) SRV SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
- Turn the ignition off.CAUTION: Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals, resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install Miller Special Tool #8815 to perform diagnosis.
- Measure the resistance of the (K235) SRV Signal between the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector and the appropriate terminal of special tool #8815.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Yes
- Go to step 8
No
- Repair the (K235) SRV Signal for an open circuit or high resistance.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
- Turn the ignition off.
- (K900) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
CAUTION: Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals, resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install Miller Special Tool #8815 to perform diagnosis.
- Measure the resistance of the (K900) Sensor Ground circuit between the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector and the appropriate terminal of special tool #8815.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Yes
- Go to step 9
No
- Repair the (K900) Sensor Ground circuit for an open circuit or high resistance.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
- Measure the resistance of the (K900) Sensor Ground circuit between the Short Runner Valve Assembly harness connector and the appropriate terminal of special tool #8815.
- POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
- Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Short Runner Valve Assembly and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
- Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
- Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
- Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit and wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
- Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.
- Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.
