Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
1. Ignition on, engine not running.
2. With the scan tool, erase DTCs in the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
3. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
4. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Is the DTC Active?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT DTC .
CHECK THE (K373) EXHAUST PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Exhaust Pressure Sensor harness connector.
3. Disconnect the PCM C2 harness connector.
4. Measure the resistance between ground and the (K373) Exhaust Pressure Sensor Signal circuit at the Exhaust Pressure Sensor harness connector.
  Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 3
  No
  - Repair the (K373) Exhaust Pressure Sensor Signal circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
CHECK THE EXHAUST PRESSURE SENSOR OPERATION
1. Install the Exhaust Pressure Sensor in accordance with the service information.
2. Connect the Exhaust Pressure Sensor harness connector.
3. Connect the PCM C2 harness connector.
4. Turn the ignition on.
5. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
6. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
7. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Is the DTC Active?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 4
  No
  - Replace the Exhaust Pressure Sensor in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to SENSOR, EXHAUST PRESSURE, REMOVAL .
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
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 .
