Powertrain Verification Test VER-5 (NGC)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: After completing this test, see TRANSMISSION VERIFICATION TEST (NGC) .

NOTE: If the PCM has been replaced and the correct VIN and mileage have not been programmed, a DTC will be set in the ABS Module, Air bag Module and the SKIM.

NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with a Sentry Key Immobilizer System, Secret Key data must be updated. See PROGRAMMING .

Inspect the vehicle to ensure that all engine components are properly installed and connected. Reassemble and reconnect components as necessary.
Connect the DRBIII® to the data link connector.
Ensure the fuel tank has at least a quarter tank of fuel. Turn off all accessories.
If the catalyst was replaced, with the DRBIII® go to the MISCELLANEOUS menu option "CATALYST REPLACED" and press enter.
If a comprehensive component DTC was repaired, perform steps 6- 9 . If a major OBDII Monitor DTC was repaired, skip those steps and continue verification.
After the ignition has been off for at least 10 seconds, restart the vehicle and run 2 minutes.
With the DRBIII®, monitor the appropriate pre-test enabling conditions until all conditions have been met. Once the conditions have been met, switch screen to the appropriate OBDII monitor, (Audible beeps when the monitor is running).
If the repaired OBDII trouble code has reset or was seen in the monitor while on the road test, the repair is not complete. Check for any related technical service bulletins or flash updates and return to the SCAN TOOL DTC MESSAGES table.
If the conditions cannot be duplicated, erase all DTC's with the DRBIII®.
If another DTC has set, return to the SCAN TOOL DTC MESSAGES table and follow the path specified for that DTC.
If the OBDII monitor ran successfully and the good trip counter changed to one or more, repair is complete. If not, check for any related TSB's and/or to the SCAN TOOL DTC MESSAGES table.
