Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 GMC Sierra, 2004 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2004 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 4:  A short to voltage on the 5-volt reference circuit will cause DTC P0651 to set.
  2. 7:  This step tests the signal circuit of the BARO sensor for a short to voltage. The short may backfeed through the sensor to the 5- volt reference circuit causing DTC P0651 to set.
  3. 8:  This step tests the signal circuit of the boost sensor for a short to voltage. The short may backfeed through the sensor to the 5-volt reference circuit causing DTC P0651 to set.
  4. 9:  This step tests the signal circuit of the EGR vacuum sensor for a short to voltage. The short may backfeed through the sensor to the 5-volt reference circuit causing DTC P0651 to set.
