SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before using this section, perform the "On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) System Check" and verify all of the
following items:

The engine control module (ECM) and check engine
lamp (MIL=malfunction indicator lamp) are operating
correctly.

There are no Diagnostic Trouble Code(s) stored.

Tech 2 data is within normal operating range. Refer
to Typical Scan Data Values.

Verify the customer complaint and locate the correct
symptom in the table of contents. Perform the
procedure included in the symptom chart.

VISUAL/PHYSICAL CHECK
Several of the symptom procedures call for a careful
visual/physical check. This can lead to correcting a
problem without further checks and can save valuable
time. This check should include the following items:

ECM grounds for cleanliness, tightness and proper
location.

Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, and proper
connection. Check thoroughly for any type of leak or
restriction.

Air intake ducts for collapsed or damaged areas.

Air leaks at throttle body mounting area, manifold
absolute pressure (MAP) sensor and intake manifold
sealing surfaces.

Ignition wires for cracking, harness, and carbon
tracking.

Wiring for proper connections, pinches and cuts.

INTERMITTENT
Important: An intermittent problem may or may not turn
on the check engine lamp (MIL=malfunction indicato
r
lamp) or store a Diagnostic Trouble Code. Do NOT use
the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) charts fo
r
intermittent problems.
The fault must be present to locate the problem.
Most intermittent problems are cased by faulty electrical
connections or wiring. Perform a careful visual/physical
check for the following conditions.

Poor mating of the connector halves or a terminal
not fully seated in the connector (backed out).

Improperly formed or damaged terminal.


All connector terminals in the problem circuit should
be carefully checked for proper contact tension.

Poor terminal-to-wire connection. This requires
removing the terminal form the connector body to
check.

Ignition coils shorted to ground and arcing at ignition
wires or plugs.

Check engine lamp (MIL=malfunction indicator lamp)
wire to ECM shorted to ground.

Poor ECM grounds. Refer to the ECM wiring
diagrams.

Road test the vehicle with a Digital Multimete
r
connected to a suspected circuit. An abnormal voltage
when the malfunction occurs is a good indication tha
t
there is a fault in the circuit being monitored.
Using Tech 2 to help detect intermittent conditions. The
Tech 2 have several features that can be used to
located an intermittent condition. Use the following
features to find intermittent faults:
To check for loss of diagnostic code memory,
disconnect the mass air flow (MAF) sensor and idle the
engine until the check engine lamp (MIL=malfunction
indicator lamp) comes on. Diagnostic Trouble Code
P0102 should be stored and kept in memory when the
ignition is turned OFF.
If not, the ECM is faulty. When this test is completed,
make sure that you clear the Diagnostic Trouble Code
P0102 from memory.

An intermittent check engine lamp (MIL=malfunction
indicator lamp) with no stored Diagnostic Trouble Code
may be caused by the following:

Ignition coil shorted to ground and arcing at ignition
wires or plugs.

Check engine lamp (MIL=malfunction indicator lamp)
wire to ECM short to ground.

Poor ECM grounds. Refer to the ECM wiring
diagrams.

Check for improper installation of electrical options such
as light, cellular phones, etc. Check all wires from ECM
to the ignition control module for poor connections.
Check for an open diode across the A/C compresso
r
clutch and check for other open diodes (refer to wiring
diagrams in Electrical Diagnosis).
