Diagnostic Test
1.NO START PRE-TEST
NOTE: The following list of items must be checked before continuing with any no start tests.
The battery must be fully charged and in good condition. A low charged battery may produce invalid test results. If
the battery is low, charge the battery and then attempt to start the vehicleby cranking the engine for 15 seconds,
3 consecutive times.
This will allow any DTCs to set that may have been erased due to a dead battery.
Try to communicate with PCM if not able to communicate check fuses.
Make sure the Powers and Ground to the PCM are OK.
Make sure the PCM communicates with the scan tool and that there are no DTCs stored in the PCM memory. If the
PCM reports a No Response condition, refer to section 8 Electrical Electronic Control Module Electrical Diagnostics
for the proper tests.
Read the PCM DTCs with the scan tool. If any DTCs are present, they must be repaired before continuing with any
other No Start diagnostic tests. Refer to the Table of Contents for the related P-code that is reported by the PCM.
Make sure that the Bus is functional. Attempt to communicate with the Instrument Cluster and VTSS, If you are
unable to establish communications refer to 8 Electrical Electronic Control Module Electrical Diagnostics for the
proper Diagnostic procedures.
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System mustbe operating properly. Check for proper communication with the scan tool
and check for DTCs that may be stored in the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM). Repair the DTC(s) before
continuing.
If no DTCs are found, using the scan tool, select Clear PCM (BATT Disconnect).
Crank the engine several times. Using the scan tool, read DTCs. If a DTC is present perform the DTC diagnostics
before continuing.
Were any problems found?
Ye s>>
Repair as necessary.
Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
No>>

2.OPEN FUSE
Check for any open fuses in the IPM or Junction Block that may be related to theNoStartcondition.
Are any of the fuses open?
Ye s>>
Replace the open fuse and check the related circuit(s) for a short to ground.
Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCEDURE)

The NO RESPONSE condition must be properly diagnosed before continuing.
Refer to the appropriate BUS Communication test in Section 8 ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES -
ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS.
No>>
Go To 2
2.NO START
Is the customer complaint a NO START condition?
Ye s>>
Check the vehicle for any NO START related PCM DTC(s) or Vehicle Theft Security related DTC(s).
If no Theft related DTC(s) are present, refer to the Non DTC Diagnostic Procedures that relate to Fuel
and Starting.
No>>
Go To 3
3.VEHICLE HISTORY AND TSB(s)
Continue by reading PCM DTC(s) and record the related Freeze Frame data if any DTC(s) are present.
Whether or not any DTC(s) are present you will want to check the following items which may assist in repairing the
customers complaint successfully.
Check the vehicles repair history.
If the vehicle has a repair history that pertains to the customer’s currentcomplaint, review the repair.
Inspect the vehicle for any aftermarket accessories that may have been installed incorrectly.
Check for any TSB(s) related to the customer’s complaint or DTC(s).
If a TSB applies, follow the instructions per the TSB.
Choose the following scenario that best applies.
The TSB repaired the customers complaint.
Testing complete.
A DTC is present, no TSB applies, or the TSB didn’t repair the customers complaint.
