Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
Diagnostic Test
1.APP SENSOR BELOW 0.25 OF A VOLT
Ignition on, engine not running.
With a scan tool, read the APP Sensor No.1 voltage.
NOTE: Sensor No. 2 is pulled low by the PCM as part of its system testing. Thistest happens a couple of
times a second. So you can expect to see voltages close to zero occasionallywith a normal sensor.
Is the voltage consistently below 0.25 of a volt?
