(A209) PCM FUSED B+ CIRCUIT
(F1), (F26) PCM FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT CIRCUITS
(Z130), (Z131) PCM GROUND CIRCUITS
CHECKING PCM POWERS AND GROUNDS
| TEST | ACTION | APPLICABILITY |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Turn the ignition off. Disconnect the C1 PCM harness connector.
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 MILLER SPECIAL TOOL #8815 TO PERFORM DIAGNOSIS. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, probe the (A209) PCM Fused B+ circuit in the appropriate terminals of special tool #8815. Does the test light illuminate brightly? Yes --> Go To 2 No --> Repair the open in the (A209) Fused B+ circuit. Inspect the related fuses and repair as necessary. Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 . |

INSTALL MILLER SPECIAL TOOL #8815 TO PERFORM DIAGNOSIS. Using a 12-volt test light connected to battery voltage, probe the (Z130) and (Z131) PCM Ground circuits in the appropriate terminals of special tool #8815. Does the test light illuminate brightly? Yes --> Test Complete. No --> Repair the open in the (Z130) and (Z131) PCM Ground circuit(s). Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 . |
