Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC 
    NOTE:

    If there are any SCB Valve Position Sensor 1 or 2 circuit faults present, diagnose and repair those faults before proceeding with this test procedure.

    NOTE:

    Make sure the SCB Valve plate is at the idle position and free from binding and carbon build up.

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. With the scan tool, read DTCs and record on the repair order.

      Is the DTC active or pending?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

  2. CHECK FOR HIGH RESISTANCE IN THE (K871) SCB VALVE SIGNAL 1 CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
      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.

    2. Disconnect the PCM C2 harness connector and connect the (special tool #10436, Adapter, GPEC Diagnostic) in-line with the PCM C2 harness connector.
    3. Using a voltmeter, perform a voltage drop test. Back probe connect the voltmeter between the (K871) SCB Valve Signal 1 circuit at the SCB Valve harness connector and the GPEC Adaptor. Make sure the voltmeter leads are connected so a positive polarity is displayed on the voltmeter.
      WARNING:

      When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts or fan. Do not wear loose clothing. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

    4. Start the engine and allow it to idle.
    5. Monitor the voltmeter.

      Is the voltage below 0.2 volts?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3

  3. CHECK FOR HIGH RESISTANCE IN THE (K915) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Move the voltmeter leads to the (K915) Sensor Ground circuit between the SCB Valve harness connector and the GPEC Adaptor. Make sure the voltmeter leads are connected so a positive polarity is displayed on the voltmeter.
      WARNING:

      When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts or fan. Do not wear loose clothing. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

    3. Start the engine and allow it to idle.
    4. Monitor the voltmeter.

      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  4. CHECK FOR HIGH RESISTANCE IN THE (K872) SCB VALVE SIGNAL 2 CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Move the voltmeter leads between the (K872) SCB Valve Signal 2 circuit at the SCB Valve harness connector and the GPEC Adaptor. Make sure the voltmeter leads are connected so a positive polarity is displayed on the voltmeter.
      WARNING:

      When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts or fan. Do not wear loose clothing. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

    3. Start the engine and allow it to idle.
    4. Monitor the voltmeter.

      Is the voltage below 0.2 volt?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5

      No 

      • Repair the excessive resistance in the (K872) SCB Valve Signal 2 circuit.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  5. CHECK FOR HIGH RESISTANCE IN THE (F855) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Move the voltmeter leads between the (F855) 5-Volt Supply circuit at the SCB Valve harness connector and the GPEC Adaptor. Make sure the voltmeter leads are connected so a positive polarity is displayed on the voltmeter.
    3. Start the engine and allow it to idle.
    4. Monitor the voltmeter.

      Is the voltage below 0.2 volt?
