Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. READ AND RECORD DTCS AND ENVIRONMENTAL DATA - ERASE DTCS AND CHECK FOR THE DTC TO RETURN 
    1. With the scan tool, read DTCs in all Electronic Control Units (ECUs) and record on the repair order.
    2. For future reference, run and save a vehicle Scan Report and all related recorded data.
    3. With the scan tool, erase all DTCs.
    4. Turn the ignition off for a minimum of 75.0 seconds.
    5. Turn the ignition on.
    6. Using the When Monitored and Set Conditions above and recorded data, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
    7. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Did the DTC return?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

      • Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT DTC .
  2. CHECK THE A/C PRESSURE SENSOR (C18) SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the A/C Pressure Sensor harness connector.
    3. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
      NOTE:

      Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

    4. Measure the resistance between ground and the A/C Pressure Sensor (C18) Signal circuit at the A/C Pressure Sensor harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 10k Ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go To  3
  3. CHECK FOR THE A/C PRESSURE SENSOR (C18) SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (C918) SENSOR RETURN 
    1. Measure the resistance between the A/C Pressure Sensor (C18) Signal circuit and the (C918) Sensor Return circuit at the A/C Pressure Sensor harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 10k Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Repair the short between the A/C Pressure Sensor (C18) Signal circuit and the (C918) Sensor Return circuit.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to 3.0L, POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  4
  4. CHECK THE A/C PRESSURE SENSOR (C18) SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE 
    1. Measure the resistance of the A/C Pressure Sensor (C18) Signal circuit between the A/C Pressure Sensor harness connector and the PCM C1 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5

      No 

      • Repair the A/C Pressure Sensor (C18) Signal circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to 3.0L, POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  5. CHECK THE ABILITY OF THE PCM TO READ THE A/C PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL 
    1. Connect the PCM C1 harness connector.
    2. Turn the ignition on.
    3. With the scan tool, record all Freeze frame data.
    4. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
    5. Turn the ignition off for 75 seconds.
    6. Turn the ignition on.
    7. While monitoring the scan tool, use a jumper wire to connect the (C818) 5-Volt Supply circuit to the A/C Pressure Sensor (C18) Signal circuit at the A/C Pressure Sensor harness connector.

      Did P0533 set?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go To  6
  6. 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.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to 3.0L, POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
