Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).



Diagnostic Test

1.ACTIVE DTC


NOTE: Check for contaminants that may have damaged an O2 Sensor: contaminated fuel, unapproved silicone, oil and coolant.





NOTE: It may be necessary to drive the vehicle to meet the conditions to set this DTC, try to repeat the conditions in which the fault originally set by reviewing the Freeze Frame data.



Is the DTC Active or Pending at this time?

Yes
  • Go To 2


No

2.CHECKING FUEL PRESSURE

WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure (even with the engine off). Before testing or servicing any fuel system hose, fitting or line, the fuel system pressure must be released. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.





NOTE: Fuel pressure specification is 407 kPa +/- 34 kPa (59 psi +/- 5 psi).




Choose a conclusion that best matches your fuel pressure reading.

Within Specification
  • Go To 3


Above Specification


Below Specification
  • Go To 12

    CAUTION: Stop All Actuations.


3.O2 SENSOR OPERATION



NOTE: If one of the O2 Sensor's Signal or Return circuit is shorted to ground the scan tool will display all O2 Sensor voltage readings low. The O2 Sensor that is shorted to ground will display a voltage reading near or at 0 volts.


NOTE: If one of the O2 Sensor Signal or Return circuits are shorted to voltage, the scan tool will display all O2 Sensor voltage readings high.


NOTE: After the repairs have been made, verify proper O2 Sensor operation. If all the O2 Sensor voltage readings have not returned to normal, follow the diagnostic procedure for the remaining O2 Sensors.




Is the voltage switching between 2.5 and 3.4 volts?

Yes
  • Go To 4


No
  • Go To 8

4.2/1 O2 SENSOR HEATER OPERATION


NOTE: Wait a minimum of 10 minutes to allow the O2 Sensor to cool down before continuing the test. Allow the O2 Sensor voltage to stabilize at 5.0 volts.


NOTE: Perform the following test on all O2 Sensors.






Does the voltage stay above 4.5 volts?

Yes


No
  • Go To 5

5.MAP SENSOR OPERATION





NOTE: If engine will not idle, maintain a constant RPM above idle.




Is the scan tool reading within 1 inch of Hg of the Vacuum Gauge reading?

Yes
  • Go To 6


No

6.ECT SENSOR OPERATION

NOTE: For this test to be valid, the thermostat must be operating correctly.

NOTE: This test works best if performed on a cold engine (cold soak).




NOTE: If engine coolant temperature is above 82° C (180° F), allow the engine to cool until 65° C (150° F) is reached.





Did the ECT value increase smoothly and did it reach at least 82°C (180°F)?

Yes
  • Go To 7


No

7.ENGINE MECHANICAL PROBLEM














Are there any engine mechanical problems?

Yes


No

8.O2 SENSOR








NOTE: The voltage should drop from 5.0 volts to 2.5 volts with the jumper wire in place.



Did the O2 Sensor voltage change from 5.0 volts to 2.5 volts when the jumper wire was installed?

Yes


No
  • Go To 9

    NOTE: Remove the jumper wire before continuing.


9.O2 SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT


NOTE: The scan tool will display all O2 Sensor voltage readings approximately 5.0 volts when only one O2 Sensor's Signal circuit is shorted to voltage.


NOTE: The scan tool will display one O2 Sensor voltage close to zero and the others will read lower than normal when one O2 Sensor Signal circuit contains excessive resistance.



Is the voltage above 4.8 volts?

Yes


No
  • Check all the O2 Signal circuits for a short to ground, open, or short to voltage. Inspect the O2 Sensor connector and the PCM harness connector. If OK, replace and program the Powertrain Control Module per Service Information.
  • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)

10.(K902) O2 UPSTREAM RETURN CIRCUIT






Is the voltage at 2.5 volts?

Yes


No
  • Check the (K902) O2 Upstream Return circuit for a short to ground, open, or short to voltage. Inspect the O2 Sensor connector and the PCM harness connector. If OK, replace and program the Powertrain Control Module per Service Information.
  • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)

11.PCM

NOTE: Before continuing, check the PCM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.




Were there any problems found?

Yes


No

12.RESTRICTED FUEL SUPPLY LINE

WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure (even with the engine off). Before testing or servicing any fuel system hose, fitting or line, the fuel system pressure must be released. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.







NOTE: Fuel pressure specification is 407 kPa +/- 34 kPa (59 psi +/- 5 psi).



Is the fuel pressure within specification?

Yes


No
  • Go To 13

    CAUTION: Stop All Actuations.


13.FUEL PUMP INLET STRAINER

WARNING: The fuel system is under a constant pressure (even with the engine off). Before testing or servicing any fuel system hose, fitting or line, the fuel system pressure must be released.





Is the Fuel Inlet Strainer plugged?

Yes


No

14.FUEL PUMP MODULE


If there are no possible causes remaining, view repair.
