- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE (K914) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE
- Measure the resistance of the (K914) Sensor Ground circuit between the Boost Pressure Sensor harness connector and the PCM-1 C1 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 7
No
- Repair the (K914) Sensor Ground circuit for an open or high resistance.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
- Measure the resistance of the (K914) Sensor Ground circuit between the Boost Pressure Sensor harness connector and the PCM-1 C1 harness connector.
- CHECK THE ABILITY OF THE PCM TO READ THE BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL
- Reconnect the Boost Pressure Sensor harness connector.
- Reconnect the PCM-1 C1 harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Boost Pressure Sensor harness connector.
- Connect a jumper between the (K37) Boost Pressure Signal 1 circuit and the (K914) Sensor Ground circuit at the Boost Pressure Sensor harness connector.NOTE:
Be careful not to spread the terminals.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, read DTCs.NOTE:
The scan tool should display the DTC P0237-00-TURBOCHARGER/SUPERCHARGER BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW with the jumper connected.
Does the scan tool display as described above?
Yes
- Replace the Boost Pressure Sensor 1 in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to SENSOR, TURBO BOOST PRESSURE, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 8
- CHECK RELATED PCM AND COMPONENT CONNECTIONS
- Perform any Service Bulletins that apply.
- Disconnect all PCM-1 harness connectors.
- Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
- Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
- 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.
- Reconnect all PCM-1 harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
