Diagnostic Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 RAM Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- WATER IN FUEL SENSOR
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Water in Fuel Sensor harness connector.
- Ignition on, engine not running.NOTE:
Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
- Measure the voltage between the (G123) Water in Fuel Signal circuit and the (K914) Sensor ground circuit of the WIF Sensor harness connector.
Is the voltage between 4.5 and 5.5 Volts?
Yes
- Replace the Water in Fuel Sensor in accordance with the service information.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L .
No
- Go To 2.
- CHECK FOR THE (G123) WIF SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO (K914) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT
- Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.NOTE:
Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
- Measure the resistance between the (G123) WIF Sensor Signal circuit and the (K914) Sensor Ground circuit of the WIF Sensor harness connector.
Is the resistance below 10k Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the short between the (G123) WIF Sensor Signal circuit and the (K914) Sensor Ground circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L .
No
- Go To 3.
- Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
- CHECK THE (G123) WIF SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (G123) WIF Sensor Signal circuit at the WIF Sensor harness connector.
Is the resistance below 10k Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the (G123) WIF Sensor Signal for a short to ground.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L .
No
- Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the service information.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L .
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (G123) WIF Sensor Signal circuit at the WIF Sensor harness connector.
