3. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
4. Turn the ignition off for 75 seconds.
5. Start the engine. It may be necessary to test drive the vehicle.
6. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Did the DTC reset?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Perform to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT DTC .
CHECK FOR OTHER DTCS
1. Refer to the recorded DTCs.
  Are there any Charge Air Cooler Temperature or EGR Temperature Sensor-related DTCs active or pending?
  
  Yes
  - Perform the applicable diagnostic procedure(s). Refer to DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDEX .
  No
  - Go To 3
CHECK THE ABILITY OF THE PCM TO READ THE EGR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the EGR Temperature Sensor harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. While monitoring the scan tool, connect a jumper between the (K915) Sensor Return circuit and the (K935) EGR Temperature Signal circuit at the EGR Temperature Sensor harness connector.
  Did the P040C DTC set this the jumper wire connected?
  
  Yes
  - Replace the EGR Temperature Sensor in accordance with the service information. Refer to SENSOR, EXHAUST TEMPERATURE, REMOVAL .
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Go To 4
CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
1. Disconnect all PCM harness connectors.
2. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
3. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
4. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
  - Proper connector installation.
  - Damaged connector locks.
  - Corrosion.
  - Other signs of water intrusion.
  - Weather seal damage (if equipped).
  - Bent terminals.
  - Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
  - Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
  - Check for spread terminals and verify proper terminal tension.
  Repair any conditions that are found.
5. Connect all PCM harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
6. Connect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
7. Connect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
8. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
9. Test drive or operate the vehicle in accordance with the when monitored and set conditions.
10. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Did the DTC return?
  
  Yes
  - Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, POWERTRAIN CONTROL (PCM), REMOVAL .
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Repair the poor connections.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
