Diagnostic Test
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, read DTCs and record on the repair order.
Is the DTC active or pending?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
- CHECK FOR OTHER DTCS
- CHECK THE (K855) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Measure the voltage on the (K855) 5-Volt Supply circuit at the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 harness connector.
Does the voltage read approximately 5.0 volts?
Yes
- Go To 4
No
- Repair the (K855) 5-Volt Supply circuit for an open or short to ground.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST.
- CHECK THE (K383) BOOST PRESSURE 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the PCM-2 C2 harness connector.
- Check for continuity between ground and the (K383) Boost Pressure 2 Signal circuit at the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 harness connector.
Is there continuity between ground and the (K383) Boost Pressure 2 Signal circuit?
Yes
- Repair the (K383) Boost Pressure 2 Signal circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST.
No
- Go To 5
- CHECK THE (K383) BOOST PRESSURE 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE
- Measure the resistance of the (K383) Boost Pressure 2 Signal circuit between the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 harness connector and the PCM-2 C2 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 6
No
- Repair the (K383) Boost Pressure 2 Signal circuit for an open or high resistance.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST.
- Measure the resistance of the (K383) Boost Pressure 2 Signal circuit between the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 harness connector and the PCM-2 C2 harness connector.
- CHECK THE ABILITY OF THE PCM TO READ THE BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL
- Reconnect the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 harness connector.
- Reconnect the PCM-2 C2 harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 harness connector.
- Connect a jumper between the (K383) Boost Pressure 2 Signal circuit and the (K855) 5-Volt Supply circuit.NOTE:
Be careful not to spread the terminals.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, view PCM-2 DTCs.NOTE:
The scan tool should display the P0242-TURBOCHARGER-SUPERCHARGER BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR 2 CIRCUIT HIGH with the jumper connected.
Does the scan tool display as described above?
Yes
- Replace the Boost Pressure Sensor 2 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 7
- CHECK RELATED PCM-2 AND COMPONENT CONNECTIONS
- Perform any Service Bulletins that apply.
- Disconnect all PCM-2 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-2 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.
- Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Test drive or operate the vehicle in accordance with the when monitored and set conditions.
- With the scan tool, read DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module 2 (PCM-2) 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
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
- Test complete.
