Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
1. With the scan tool, read Powertrain Control Module 1 (PCM-1) DTCs and Freeze Frame Data and record on the repair order.
2. Using the recorded Freeze Frame Data and the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
3. With the scan tool, read PCM-1 DTCs.
  Is the DTC active or pending?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
CHECK THE (K86) COIL COMMAND SIGNAL 2 CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO ANOTHER VOLTAGE SUPPLY
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Ignition Control Module (ICM) C1 harness connector.
3. Disconnect the PCM-1 C2 harness connector.
4. Check for continuity between the (K86) Coil Command Signal 2 circuit and all other circuits at the PCM-1 C2 harness connector.
  Is there continuity between the (K86) Coil Command Signal 2 circuit and any other circuit?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (K86) Coil Command Signal 2 circuit for a short to the circuit that showed continuity.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Go To 3
REPLACE THE IGNITION CONTROL MODULE AND RETEST FOR DTC
1. Replace the Ignition Control Module in accordance with the Service Information.
2. Connect the Ignition Control Module and PCM harness connectors.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
5. Using the Freeze Frame Data or When Monitored Conditions above, operate the vehicle within the conditions that set the DTC.
6. With the scan tool, read PCM-1 DTCs.
  Did the DTC return?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 4
  No
  - Replacing the Ignition Control Module repaired the fault.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
CHECK RELATED PCM-1 AND COMPONENT CONNECTIONS
1. Perform any Service Bulletins that apply.
2. Disconnect all PCM-1 harness connectors.
3. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
4. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
5. 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.
6. Reconnect all PCM-1 harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
7. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
8. Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
9. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
10. Test drive or operate the vehicle in accordance with the when monitored and set conditions.
11. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Did the DTC return?
  
  Yes
  - Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module-1 (PCM) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, POWERTRAIN CONTROL (PCM), REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - The wiring or poor connection problem has been repaired.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
