1.0 INTRODUCTION
The procedures contained in this manual include
all the specifications, instructions and graphics
needed to diagnose engine control module (ECM)
and sentry key immobilizer system (SKIS) prob-
lems; they are no start, diagnostic trouble code
(DTC), and no trouble code problems for the ECM.
The diagnostics in this manual are based on the
trouble condition or symptom being present at the
time of diagnosis.
When repairs are required, refer to the appropri-
ate service information for the proper removal and
repair procedure.
Diagnostic procedures change every year. New
diagnostic systems may be added; carryover sys-
tems may be enhanced. IT IS RECOMMENDED
THAT YOU REVIEW THE ENTIRE MANUAL TO
BECOME FAMILIAR WITH ALL NEW AND
CHANGED DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES.
This manual is designed to begin all diagnosis at
the DTC TEST, which is located at the beginning of
Section 7.0. This will cover all the necessary re-
quirements to begin a logical diagnostic path for
each problem. If there is a diagnostic trouble code
(DTC) detected, it will direct you to the trouble code
test. If there are no DTCs present, it will direct you
by symptom to a no trouble code test.
This book reflects many suggested changes from
readers of past issues. After using this book, if you
have any comments or recommendations, please fill
out the form at the back of the book and mail it back
to us.
1.1 SYSTEM COVERAGE
This diagnostic procedures manual covers all
2001 RG body vehicles equipped with the 2.5L VM
diesel engine.
1.2 SIX-STEP TROUBLESHOOTING
PROCEDURE
Diagnosis of the engine control module (ECM)
and sentry key immobilizer system (SKIS) is done
in six basic steps:
²verification of complaint
²verification of any related symptom
²symptom analysis
²problem isolation
²repair of isolated problem
²verification of proper operation
NOTE: All tests in this manual should be per-
formed with the engine at operating temperature,
unless specified within a particular test.
2.0 IDENTIFICATION OF
SYSTEM
The ECM is located in the left side of the engine
compartment between the left front headlamp and
the intelligent power module. The sentry key immo-
bilizer module (SKIM) is located below the steering
column behind the steering wheel.
3.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND
FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 2.5L VM diesel engine system is equipped
with the latest in technical advances. The on-board
diagnostics incorporated in the engine control mod-
ule and SKIM are intended to assist the field
technician in repairing vehicle problems by the
quickest means.
The engine system incorporates a common rail
fuel delivery design. This design utilizes electroni-
cally controlled solenoid valve type fuel injectors.
Each injector is controlled individually by the ECM.
Injector timing and fuel quantity are controlled by
the ECM based on inputs from the various sensors.
The precision control of the injectors by the ECM
helps to reduce the engine noise, odor and smoke.
3.2 FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
3.2.1 ECM ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
The ECM has been programmed to monitor many
different circuits of the diesel fuel injection system.
This monitoring is called on-board diagnostics.
Certain criteria must be met for a trouble code to
be entered into the ECM memory. The criteria may
be a range of: engine rpm, engine temperature, time
or other input signals to the ECM. If all of the
criteria for monitoring a system or circuit are met,
and a problem is sensed, then a DTC will be stored
in the ECM memory.
It is possible that a DTC for a monitored circuit
may not be entered into the ECM memory, even
though a malfunction has occurred. This may hap-
pen when the monitoring criteria has not been met.
The ECM compares input signal voltages from
each input device with specifications (the estab-
lished high and low limits of the input range) that
are programmed into it for that device. If the input
voltage is not within the specifications and other
trouble code criteria are met, a DTC will be stored
in the ECM memory.
