Diagnostic Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 RAM 3500 HD and 2013 RAM 2500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- ACTIVE DTC NOTE:
If there are any 5-Volt supply DTCs present, repair those DTCs before proceeding.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, record all Freeze frame data.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Turn the ignition off for 75 seconds.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, read DTCs.
Did the DTC reset?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- CHECK THE (K616) INLET AIR PRESSURE SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Inlet Air Temperature/Pressure Sensor harness connector.NOTE:
Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Measure the voltage on the (K616) Inlet Air Pressure Signal circuit at the Inlet Temperature/Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Is the voltage above 5.1 Volts?
Yes
- Repair the (K616) Inlet Air Pressure Signal circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Go To 3
- CHECK FOR THE (K616) INLET AIR PRESSURE SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (F857) 5-VOLT SUPPLY
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance between the (K616) Inlet Air Pressure Signal circuit and the (F857) 5-Volt Supply circuit at the Inlet Air Temperature/Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Is the resistance below 10k Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the short between the (K616) Inlet Air Pressure Signal circuit and the (F857) 5-Volt Supply circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Go To 4
- CHECK THE (K916) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE
- Measure the resistance of the (K916) Sensor Ground circuit from the Inlet Temperature/Pressure Sensor harness connector to the PCM C1 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 5
No
- Repair the (K916) Sensor Ground circuit for an open or high resistance.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- Measure the resistance of the (K916) Sensor Ground circuit from the Inlet Temperature/Pressure Sensor harness connector to the PCM C1 harness connector.
- CHECK THE INLET TEMPERATURE/PRESSURE SENSOR
- Reconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
- Reconnect the Inlet Temperature/Pressure Sensor harness connector.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Turn the ignition off for 75 seconds.
- Turn the ignition on.
- While monitoring the scan tool, disconnect the Inlet Temperature/Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Does DTC P2228 Barometric Pressure Sensor Low become active.
Yes
- Replace the Inlet Temperature/Pressure Sensor in accordance with the service information.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the service information.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST - 6.7L. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
