Diagnostic Test
- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC NOTE:
If there are any 5-Volt Supply DTCs present, perform the diagnostics for those DTCs before continuing with this one.
- Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
- With the scan tool, read DTCs and record on the repair order.
Is the DTC active or pending?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
- CHECK THE (F856) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Measure the voltage on the (F856) 5-Volt Supply circuit at the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Is the voltage above 5.2 volts?
Yes
- Repair the (F856) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 3
- CHECK THE (K664) CRANKCASE PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Measure the voltage on the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit at the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Is the voltage above 5.2 volts?
Yes
- Repair the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 4
- Measure the voltage on the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit at the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector.
- CHECK THE (K664) CRANKCASE PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO THE (F856) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the PCM C2 harness connector.
- Check for continuity between the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit and the (F856) 5-Volt Supply circuit at the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Is there continuity between the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit and the (F856) 5-Volt Supply circuit?
Yes
- Repair the short between the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit and the (F856) 5-Volt Supply circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 5
- CHECK THE (K915) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/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 the GPEC Diagnostic Adaptor to perform the diagnosis.
- Connect the (special tool #10436, Adapter, GPEC Diagnostic).
- Measure the resistance of the (K915) Sensor Ground circuit between the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector and the GPEC Adaptor.
Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 6
No
- Repair the (K915) Sensor Ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE (K664) CRANKCASE PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE
- Measure the resistance of the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit between the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector and the GPEC Adaptor.
Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 7
No
- Repair the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
- Measure the resistance of the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit between the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector and the GPEC Adaptor.
- CRANKCASE PRESSURE SENSOR
- Reconnect the PCM C2 harness connector.
- Connect a jumper between the (K664) Crankcase Pressure Sensor Signal circuit and the (K915) Sensor Ground circuit at the Crankcase Pressure Sensor harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, read DTCs and record on the repair order.NOTE:
The scan tool should display the P051C-CRANKCASE PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW DTC as active or pending with the jumper in place.
Does the DTC display as described above?
Yes
- Replace the Crankcase Pressure Sensor in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 8
- POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
- Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Crankcase Pressure Sensor 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.
- Perform any Service Bulletins that may apply.
Were any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Replace the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
