Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 GMC Sierra and 2007 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the water in fuel sensor.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1.0 ohm of resistance between the ground circuit and ground.
- If greater than 1.0 ohm, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit and ground. Verify the scan tool Water In Fuel Sensor parameter is Water.
- If not Water, test the signal circuit of the water in fuel sensor for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the water in fuel sensor
