Test Description

The number below refers to the step number on the diagnostic table.

  1. 3:  Further circuit diagnosis may require instrument panel cluster (IPC) removal. Test the circuit from the PCM to the tachometer for being open, shorted to ground or, voltage. If you can not find any trouble, follow the appropriate IPC diagnostic procedure.
DTC P0654 - PCM Detects That The Commanded State Of The Driver And The Actual State Of The Control Circuit Do Not Match

Step Action Values Yes No
Schematic Reference:  Instrument Cluster Schematics  
1 Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? - Go to Step 2  Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle
2 With the engine running, does the vehicles tachometer indicate engine RPM? - Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems Go to Step 3 
  1. Turn the ignition OFF.
  2. Disconnect the powertrain control module (PCM) connector located on the same side as the manufacturer's logo. Refer to Engine Control Module (ECM) Replacement in Engine Controls.
  3. Install the J 33431-C  Signal Generator Tester between the engine speed signal circuit and a good ground.
  4. Turn the ignition ON.
  5. Set the J 33431-C  Signal Generator Tester to generate a tachometer signal.
Does the tachometer indicate a RPM?
- Go to Step 5  Go to Step 4 
4 Test the engine speed signal circuit for an open, high resistance, or a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 9  Go to Step 7 
5 Inspect for poor connections at the PCM connector. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 9  Go to Step 6 
6 Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the Instrument panel cluster (IPC). Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 9  Go to Step 8
