Engine RPM— A live reading of engine RPM to aid the user in accessing the Similar Conditions Window.
Adaptive Memory Factor— The PCM utilizes both Short Term Compensation and Long Term Adaptive to
calculate the Adaptive Memory Factor for total fuel correction.
Upstream O2S Volts— A live reading of the Oxygen Sensor to indicate its performance. For example, stuck
lean, stuck rich, etc.
SCW Time in Window (Similar Conditions Window Time in Window)—Atimer used by the PCM that
indicates that, after all Similar Conditions have been met, if there has been enough good engine running time
in the SCW without failure detected. This timer is used to increment a Good Trip.
Fuel System Good Trip Counter—ATripCounterusedtoturnOFFtheMILforFuelSystemDTCs.To
increment a Fuel System Good Trip, the engine must be in the Similar Conditions Window, Adaptive Memory
Factor must be less than calibrated threshold and the Adaptive Memory Factor must stay below that threshold
for a calibrated amount of time.
Test Done This Trip— Indicates that the monitor has already been run and completed during the current trip.
MISFIRE
Same Misfire Warm-Up State— Indicates if the misfire occurred when the engine was warmed up above
160° F (71.1°C).
In Similar Misfire Window— An indicator that ’Absolute MAP When Misfire Occurred’ and ’RPM When Mis-
fire Occurred’ are all in the same range when the failure occurred. Indicated by switching from ’NO’ to ’YES’.
Absolute MAP When Misfire Occurred— The stored MAP reading at the time of failure. Informs the user at
what engine load the failure occurred.
Absolute MAP— A live reading of engine load to aid the user in accessing the Similar Conditions Window.
RPM When Misfire Occurred— The stored RPM reading at the time of failure. Informs the user at what
engine RPM the failure occurred.
Engine RPM— A live reading of engine RPM to aid the user in accessing the Similar Conditions Window.
Adaptive Memory Factor— The PCM utilizes both Short Term Compensation and Long Term Adaptive to
calculate the Adaptive Memory Factor for total fuel correction.
200 Rev Counter— Counts 0–100 720 degree cycles.
SCW Cat 200 Rev Counter— Counts when in similar conditions.
SCW FTP 1000 Rev Counter— Counts 0–4 when in similar conditions.
Misfire Good Trip Counter— Counts up to three to turn OFF the MIL.
Misfire Data— Data collected during test.
Test Done This Trip— Indicates YES when the test is done.
NON-MONITORED CIRCUITS
The PCM does not monitor the following circuits, systems and conditions that could have malfunctions causing
driveability problems. The PCM might not store diagnostic trouble codes for these conditions. However, problems
with these systems may cause the PCM to store diagnostic trouble codes for other systems or components.EXAM-
PLE:a fuel pressure problem will not register a fault directly, but could causea rich/lean condition or misfire. This
could cause the PCM to store an oxygen sensor or misfire diagnostic troublecode
FUEL PRESSURE
The fuel pressure regulator controls fuel system pressure. The PCM cannotdetect a clogged fuel pump inlet filter,
clogged in-line fuel filter, or a pinched fuel supply or return line. However, these could result in a rich or lean con-
dition causing the PCM to store an oxygen sensor or fuel system diagnostic trouble code.
SECONDARY IGNITION CIRCUIT
The PCM cannot detect an inoperative ignition coil, fouled or worn spark plugs, ignition cross firing, or open spark
plug cables.
CYLINDER COMPRESSION
The PCM cannot detect uneven, low, or high engine cylinder compression.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The PCM cannot detect a plugged, restricted or leaking exhaust system, although it may set a fuel system fault.
FUEL INJECTOR MECHANICAL MALFUNCTIONS
The PCM cannot determine if a fuel injector is clogged, the needle is sticking or if the wrong injector is installed.
However, these could result in a rich or lean condition causing the PCM to store a diagnostic trouble code for either
misfire, an oxygen sensor, or the fuel system.
EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION
Although the PCM monitors engine exhaust oxygen content when the system isin closed loop, it cannot determine
excessive oil consumption.
THROTTLE BODY AIR FLOW
The PCM cannot detect a clogged or restricted air cleaner inlet or filter element.
VACUUM ASSIST
The PCM cannot detect leaks or restrictions in the vacuum circuits of vacuum assisted engine control system
devices. However, these could cause the PCM to store a MAP sensor diagnostic trouble code and cause a high idle
condition.
PCM SYSTEM GROUND
The PCM cannot determine a poor system ground. However, one or more diagnostic trouble codes may be gener-
ated as a result of this condition. The module should be mounted to the body at all times, also during diagnostic.
PCM CONNECTOR ENGAGEMENT
The PCM may not be able to determine spread or damaged connector pins. However, it might store diagnostic
trouble codes as a result of spread connector pins.
