Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 RAM 3500 HD and 2019 RAM 2500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK FOR OTHER DTCS 
    1. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Are any DTCs present for Inlet Air Pressure or Intake Manifold Pressure Sensors?

      Yes 

      • Troubleshoot other DTCs first.

      No 

      • Go To  2
  2. INTERMITTENT CONDITION 
    1. With vehicle in park/neutral, use the accelerator pedal to accelerate the engine speed to 3100-3200 RPM and hold the engine speed for at least 60 seconds.
    2. Return to idle for 60 seconds and then repeat.

      Does P2580 become active?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3

      No 

  3. CHECK THE TURBOCHARGER SPEED SENSOR 
    1. Turn Ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Turbocharger Speed Sensor harness connector.
      NOTE:

      Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

      NOTE:

      Check harness for cuts and tears - Replace/repair as necessary.

    3. Measure the resistance of the Turbo Speed Sensor by probing Turbo Speed (K540) Signal circuit and the Turbo Speed Sensor (K541) Ground circuit at the Turbocharger Speed Sensor.

      Is the resistance between 600 and 1600 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  4

      No 

  4. CHECK THE TURBO SPEED SENSOR (K540) SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE 
    1. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
      NOTE:

      Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

    2. Measure the resistance of the Turbo Speed Sensor (K540) Signal circuit between the Turbocharger Speed Sensor harness connector and the PCM C1 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5

      No 

      • Repair the Turbo Speed Sensor (K540) Signal circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  5. CHECK THE TURBO SPEED SENSOR (K541) RETURN CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE 
    1. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
      NOTE:

      Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

    2. Measure the resistance of the Turbo Speed Sensor (K541) Return circuit between the Turbocharger Speed Sensor harness connector and the PCM C1 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  6

      No 

      • Repair the Turbo Speed Sensor (K541) Ground circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  6. CHECK THE TURBO SPEED SENSOR (K540) SIGNAL FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    1. Measure the resistance between ground and the Turbo Speed (K540) Signal circuit at the Turbocharger Speed Sensor harness connector.

      Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  7

      No 

      • Repair the short to ground in the Turbo Speed (K540) Signal circuit.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  7. CHECK FOR THE TURBO SPEED (K540) SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE TURBO SPEED SENSOR (K541) RETURN CIRCUIT 
    1. Measure the resistance between the Turbo Speed (K540) Signal circuit and the Turbo Speed Sensor (K541) Return circuit at the Turbocharger Speed Sensor harness connector.

      Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  8

      No 

      • Repair the short between the Turbo Speed (K540) Signal circuit and the Turbo Speed Sensor (K541) Return circuit.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  8. CHECK RELATED PCM AND COMPONENT CONNECTIONS 
    1. Perform any Service Bulletins that apply.
    2. Disconnect all PCM harness connectors.
    3. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
    4. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
    5. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
      • Proper connector installation.
      • Damaged connector locks.
      • Corrosion.
      • Other signs of water intrusion.
      • Weather seal damage (if equipped).
      • Bent terminals.
      • Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
      • Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
      • Check for spread terminals and verify proper terminal tension.

      Repair any conditions that are found.

    6. Reconnect all PCM harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    7. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    8. Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    9. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
    10. Test drive or operate the vehicle in accordance with the when monitored and set conditions.
    11. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Did the DTC return?

      Yes 

      No 

      • The wiring or poor connection problem has been repaired.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
