Component Testing
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2008 GMC Yukon XL, 2008 GMC Yukon, 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2008 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
You must perform the Circuit/System Testing before proceeding with Component Testing.
- Inspect the CMP sensor for correct installation. Remove the CMP sensor from the engine and inspect the sensor O-ring for damage.
- If the sensor is loose, incorrectly installed, or damaged, replace the CMP sensor.
- Connect the CMP sensor harness connector to the CMP sensor.
- Ignition ON, engine OFF, observe the CMP Active Counter parameter on the scan tool.
- Pass a flat steel object across the tip of the sensor repeatedly. The CMP Active Counter parameter should increment with each pass of the steel object.
- If the parameter does not increment, replace the CMP sensor.
