* Transmission relay control circuit short to ground.
* Transmission control relay wiring harness defective.
* PCM defective.
* Transmission control relay defective.
Diagnostic Procedures
1) Using scan tool, read DTCs. On AN and DN bodies, go to
next step. On all except AN and DN bodies, if DTC SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS
counter is not displayed or displayed count is not "0", go to step 9).
If DTC SPECIFIC GOOD TRIPS counter is displayed and displayed count is

NOTE: A leaking fuel injector or high-pressure fuel line may cause
a rough idle, Black smoke, poor engine performance, poor fuel
economy and fuel knock. Since a leaking high-pressure fuel
line may cause the same symptoms, check for leaking high
-pressure fuel line before checking fuel injector.
1) To determine which injector or line is malfuntioning,
start engine and check each cylinder output using scan tool. If scan
tool is not available, start engine and engine allow to idle. Loosen
high-pressure fuel line nut at each fuel injector in turn and listen
for a decrease in engine speed. Tighten high-pressure fuel line nut to
30 ft. lbs. (40 N.m). Go to next step.
2) To check for a leaking high-pressure fuel line, start
engine and allow engine to idle. Inspect high-pressure fuel lines and
connections for signs of fuel leakage by placing cardboard over high-
pressure fuel line and connection. Note if leak is being detected by
fuel being sprayed onto the cardboard. If leak exists, repair leak by
tightening high-pressure fuel line nut to 30 ft. lbs. (40 N.m) or
replacing high-pressure fuel line as necessary. If high-pressure fuel
line is replaced, bleed air from fuel system. See FUEL LINE BLEEDING
under FUEL SYSTEM in REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION - TRUCKS -
DIESEL article. If no leaks are found, go to next step.
3) Remove suspect injector. See FUEL INJECTOR under FUEL
SYSTEM in REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION - TRUCKS - DIESEL article.
Test injector with a diesel fuel injector tester. Follow tester
instructions. Replace fuel injector if fuel injector opening (pop)
pressure is not 4250-4750 psi (299-334 kg/cm
). Replace injector if
any leaks are noted at 291 psi (20 kg/cm) less than opening (pop)
pressure. Inspect injector for burrs, cracks, wear and plugging. Check
spray pattern. If any problems are noted, replace injector.
FUEL INJECTION PUMP TIMING
Improper fuel injection pump timing may result in low power,
excessive smoke and poor fuel economy. To check fuel injection pump
timing, see FUEL INJECTION PUMP TIMING in ADJUSTMENTS - TRUCKS -
DIESEL article.
INTAKE MANIFOLD AIR HEATER
NOTE: Intake manifold air heater is used to heat incoming air
before entering each cylinder. Warming of incoming air aids
in engine starting and improved driveability during cold
ambient temperatures. Engine Control Module (ECM) uses input
signals from various sensors for controlling intake manifold
air heater relays.
SUMMARY
If no faults were found while performing basic diagnostic
procedures, proceed to SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - JEEP, TRUCKS & RWD VANS
article. If no diagnostic trouble codes are found in self-diagnostics,
proceed to TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES - DIESEL article for diagnosis
by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START, etc.) or intermittent
diagnostic procedures.

made.
* When using a jumper wire, ensure either jumper wire or
circuit is fuse-protected.
* Before disconnecting connector from any control module,
ensure ignition is off before removing connector.
* When checking voltage or continuity at any control module,
probe connector for control module from pin side. DO NOT
backprobe connector or probe wires through insulation.
* DO NOT cause short circuits when performing electrical tests.
This will set additional Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs),
making diagnosis of original problem more difficult.
* Use specified test equipment when performing electrical
tests.
RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
NOTE: Self-diagnostic tests are written specifically for Chrysler's
Diagnostic Readout Box (DRB). If using a generic scan tool,
ensure it is OBD-II certified. A generic scan tool may not be
capable of performing all necessary test functions.
Ensure battery is fully charged. Turn ignition off. Connect
scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located under left side\
of instrument panel. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool manufacturer's
instructions, record all DTCs displayed on scan tool. If ant DTCs are
retrieved, perform appropriate test under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. Once all
repairs are made, clear DTCs. See CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES.
If no DTCs are retrieved and fault still exists, go to CHECKING SPEED
CONTROL OPERATION under SYSTEM TESTS.
CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Ensure ignition is off. Connect scan tool to DLC. Turn
ignition on. Using screen prompts on scan tool, erase DTCs from PCM.
