      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  6
  6. CHECK THE (F859) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE 
    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 the GPEC Diagnostic Adaptor to perform the diagnosis.

    1. Connect the

      (special tool #10436, Adapter, GPEC Diagnostic)

      to the appropriate PCM connector.

      NOTE:

      The GPEC Diagnostic Adaptor can add up to 1.5 Ohms of resistance to the circuit.

    2. Measure the resistance of the (F859) 5-Volt Supply circuit between the Boost Pressure Sensor harness connector and the GPEC Diagnostic Adaptor.

      Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  10

      No 

      • Repair the (F859) 5-Volt Supply circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  7. CHECK THE BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR (K37) PRESSURE SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
    3. Check for continuity between ground the Boost Pressure Sensor (K37) Pressure Signal circuit at the Boost Pressure Sensor harness connector.

      Is there continuity between ground the Boost Pressure Sensor (K37) Pressure Signal circuit?

      Yes 

      • Repair the Boost Pressure Sensor (K37) Pressure Signal circuit for a short to ground.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  8
  8. CHECK THE BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR (K37) PRESSURE SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO THE (K900) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT
