Circuit/System Testing
- Inspect the throttle body for the following conditions:
- A throttle blade that is not in the rest position
- A throttle valve that is binding open or closed
- A throttle valve that opens or closes without spring pressure
- If any condition is found, replace the throttle body.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the throttle body.
- Ignition ON, test for less than 0.5 volt on the motor control 1 circuit terminal 5 and motor control 2 circuit terminal 8.
- If greater than the specified range, test the appropriate motor control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Ignition OFF, probe the motor control 1 circuit terminal 5 and motor control 2 circuit terminal 8 with a test lamp connected to B+. Verify the test lamp does not illuminate.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the appropriate motor control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Connect the test lamp between the motor control 1 circuit terminal 5 and motor control 2 circuit terminal 8. Observe the test lamp while turning the ignition ON for 5 seconds and then OFF. Verify the test lamp illuminates.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test each motor control circuit for an open or for a short between the motor control 1 and motor control 2 circuits. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the throttle body.
IMPORTANT:
Disconnecting the throttle body harness connector causes additional DTCs to set.
