Diagnostic Procedures

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mazda Tribute. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. If QUICK TEST was not performed, go to QUICK TEST  under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If QUICK TEST was performed and DTC P1400 is present, go to next step. If QUICK TEST was performed and DTC P1401 is present, go to step  6.

  2. DTC P1400: Verify Differential Pressure Feedback EGR (DPFEGR) Voltage

    Turn ignition on, engine off. Using scan tool, select DIAGNOSTIC DATA LINK. Select PCM. Select PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD. Access DPFEGR PID. Turn ignition off. If DPFEGR PID voltage reading was less than 0.2 volt, sensor voltage is less than minimum. Go to next step. If DPFEGR PID voltage reading was 0.2 volt or more, problem is intermittent. Go to step  14.

  3. Induce Opposite DPFEGR Sensor Voltage

    Disconnect DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector. See Fig 1. Turn ignition on, engine off. Using scan tool, select DIAGNOSTIC DATA LINK. Select PCM. Select PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD. Access DPFEGR PID. Turn ignition off. If DPFEGR PID value reading is not 4.0-6.0 volts, go to next step. If DPFEGR PID value reading is 4.0-6.0 volts, replace DPFEGR sensor. After repair, go to step  15.

  4. Measure VREF Voltage At DPFEGR Sensor Vehicle Harness Connector

    Turn ignition on, engine off. Measure voltage between VREF and SIG RTN at DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector. Turn ignition off. If VREF voltage reading is between 4.0-6.0 volts, go to next step. If VREF voltage reading is not 4.0-6.0 volts, VREF voltage is out of range. Refer to VEHICLE REFERENCE VOLTAGE  testing under SYSTEM TESTS .

  5. Check DPFE Circuit For Shorts To Ground & SIG RTN

    Disconnect scan tool from DLC. Disconnect PCM 104-pin harness connector. Connect Breakout Box (49-UN01-130) to PCM harness connector only. See Figure. Measure resistance between breakout box terminal No. 65 (DPFEGR SIG) and terminal No. 91 (SIG RTN). Measure resistance between breakout box terminal No. 65 (DPFEGR SIG) and terminal No. 103 (PWR GND). If each resistance reading is more than 10,000 ohms, replace PCM. After repair, go to step  15. If each resistance reading is not more than 10,000 ohms, repair short circuit. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. After repair, go to step  15.

  6. DTC P1401: Verify DPFEGR PID Voltage

    Turn ignition on, engine off. Access DPFEGR PID with scan tool. Turn ignition off. If DPFEGR PID voltage reading was more than 4.0 volts, sensor voltage is more than acceptable maximum. Go to next step. If sensor voltage reading was 4.0 volts or less, problem is intermittent. Go to step  14.

  7. Check DPFEGR SIG For Short To PWR

    Disconnect DPFEGR sensor harness connector. See Fig 1. Turn ignition on, engine off. Measure voltage between ground and DPFEGR SIG circuit at DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector. Turn ignition off. If voltage reading was more than 10.5 volts, go to next step. If voltage reading is 10.5 volts or less, go to step  9.

  8. Check DPFEGR SIG For Short To PWR In Harness

    Disconnect scan tool from DLC. Disconnect PCM 104-pin harness connector. Connect Breakout Box (49-UN01-130) to PCM harness connector only. See Figure. Turn ignition on, engine off. Measure voltage between breakout box terminal No. 65 (DPFEGR SIG) and terminal No. 103 (PWR GND). Turn ignition off. If voltage reading is more than 10.5 volts, repair short. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. After repair, go to step  15. If voltage reading is 10.5 volts or less, replace PCM. After repair, go to step  15.
    NOTE: If scan tool communication concern exists during next step, remove fused jumper wire immediately and go to step  14.

  9. Induce Opposite DPFEGR Sensor Voltage

    Connect fused jumper wire between sensor DPFEGR SIG (Brown/Light Green) and SIG RTN (Orange wire) circuits at DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector. See Fig 1. Using scan tool, select DIAGNOSTIC DATA LINK. Select PCM. Select PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD. Access DPFEGR PID. Turn ignition OFF. If DPFEGR PID voltage reading was less than 0.05 volt, remove fused jumper wire and go to next step. If DPFEGR PID voltage reading was 0.05 volt or more, go to step  12.

  10. Verify That VREF Is In Range

    Turn ignition on, engine off. Measure voltage between sensor VREF (Brown/White wire) and SIG RTN (Orange wire) at DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector. Turn ignition off. If VREF voltage reading is 4.0-6.0 volts, go to next step. If voltage reading is not as specified, VREF voltage reading is out-of-range. Refer to VEHICLE REFERENCE VOLTAGE  testing under SYSTEM TESTS .

  11. Check DPFEGR SIG For Short To VREF In Harness

    Disconnect scan tool from DLC. Disconnect PCM 104-pin harness connector. Connect Breakout Box (49-UN01-130) to PCM harness connector only. See Figure. Measure resistance between breakout box terminal No. 65 (DPFEGR SIG) and terminal No. 90 (VREF). If resistance reading is more than 10,000 ohms, replace DPFEGR sensor. After repair, go to step  15. If resistance reading is not as specified, repair short. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. After repair, go to step  15.

  12. Check DPFEGR SIG Circuit For Open In Harness

    Disconnect PCM 104-pin harness connector. Connect Breakout Box (49-UN01-130) to PCM harness connector only. See Figure. Measure resistance between breakout box terminal No. 65 (DPFEGR SIG) and DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector (Brown/Light Green wire). If resistance reading is less than 5.0 ohms, go to next step. If resistance reading is not as specified, repair open in Brown/Light Green wire between PCM 104-pin harness connector terminal No. 65 and DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector. After repair, go to step  15.

  13. Check SIG RTN For Open In Harness

    Measure resistance of DPFEGR SIG RTN circuit between breakout box terminal No. 91 and DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector (Orange wire). If resistance reading is less than 5.0 ohms, replace PCM. After repair, go to step  15. If resistance reading is more than 5.0 ohms, repair open in Orange wire between PCM 104-pin harness connector terminal No. 91 and DPFEGR sensor 3-pin harness connector. After repair, go to step  15.

  14. Wiggle Test DPFEGR Sensor & Harness

    Turn ignition on, engine off. Using scan tool, select DIAGNOSTIC DATA LINK. Select PCM. Select PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD. Access DPFEGR PID. Observe DPFEGR PID for an indication of fault while performing following:
    • Lightly tap on DPFEGR sensor.
    • Wiggle DPFEGR sensor connector and vehicle harness between sensor and PCM.

    A fault is indicated by a sudden change in DPFEGR PID voltage. If a fault is indicated, isolate fault and repair as necessary. After repair, go to next step. If a fault is not indicated, problem is intermittent. Refer to INTERMITTENT  testing under SYSTEM TESTS .

  15. Verify Trouble Shooting Of DTCs Completed

    Reconnect all disconnected connectors. Clear DTCs from PCM memory using scan tool. Perform QUICK TEST  under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If same DTC is present, replace faulty PCM. Repeat QUICK TEST  under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If same DTC is not present, go to applicable procedure for other DTCs. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS . If no DTCs are present, trouble shooting is complete.
