Prior to entering pinpoint tests, check the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) wiring harness for correct connections, bent or broken pins, corrosion, loose wires, correct routing, correct seals and their condition. Check the PCM, sensors and actuators for damage. Refer to SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - EEC-V - GASOLINE & NGV

NOTE:
If a concern still exists after electrical diagnosis has been carried out, refer to DIAGNOSIS BY SYMPTOM .
If DTCs appear while carrying out the on-board diagnostics, refer to the DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART for the appropriate repair procedure. Prior to entering pinpoint tests, refer to SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - EEC-V - GASOLINE & NGV and any TSBs and OASIS messages for transmission concerns.
