Temperature Sensitivity• An intermittent condition may occur when a component/ connection reaches normal
operating temperature. The condition may occur only when the component/
connection is cold, or only when the component/ connection is hot.
• Freeze Frame, Failure Records or Snapshot Data may help with this type of intermittent conditions, where applicable.
• If the intermittent is related to heat, review the data for a relationship with the following:
- High ambient temperatures.
- Underhood/ engine generated heat.
- Circuit generated heat due to a poor connection, or high electrical load.
- Higher than normal load conditions, towing, etc..
• If the intermittent is related to cold, review the data for the following: - Low ambient temperatures-In extremely low temperatures, ice may form in aconnection or component. Test for water intrusion.
- The condition only occurs on a cold start.
- The condition goes away when the vehicle warms up.
• Information from the customer may help to determine if the trouble follows a pattern that is temperature related.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
and Electrical Noise Some electrical components/ circuits are sensitive to EMI or other types of electrical
noise. Inspect the following conditions:
• A misrouted harness that is too close to high voltage/ high current devices such as injection components, motors, generator etc. These components may induce
electrical noise on a circuit that could interfere with normal circuit operation.
• Electrical system interference caused by a malfunctioning relay, or the ECM driven solenoid or switch. These conditions can cause a sharp electrical surge. Normally,
the problem will occur when the malfunctioning component is operating.
• Improper installation of non-factory or aftermarket add on accessories such as lights, 2-way radios, amplifiers, electric motors, remote starters, alarm systems, cell
phones, etc. These accessories may lead to an emission related failure while in
use, but do not fail when the accessories are not in use.
• Test for any open diodes. Some relays may contain a clamping diode.
• Test the generator for a bad rectifier bridge that may be allowing AC noise into the electrical system.
Incorrect ECM Programming • There are only a few situations where reprogramming a ECM is appropriate:
- An ECM from another vehicle is installed.
- Revised software/ calibration files have been released for this vehicle.
Important: DO NOT reprogram the ECM with the SAME software/ calibration files that
are already present in the ECM. This is not an effective repair for any type of driveability
problem.
• Verify that the ECM contains the correct software/ calibration. If incorrect programming is found, reprogram the ECM with the most current software/
calibration.
Duplicating Failure Conditions • If none of the previous tests are successful, attempt to duplicate and/ or capture the failure conditions.
• Freeze Frame/ Failure Records data, where applicable, contains the conditions that were present when the DTC set.
- Review and record Freeze Frame/ Failure Records data.
- Operate the vehicle under the same conditions that were noted in Freeze Frame/ Failure Records data, as closely as possible. The vehicle must also be
operating within the Conditions for Running the DTC. Refer to Conditions for
Running the DTC in the supporting text of the DTC being diagnosed.
• An alternate method is to drive the vehicle with the DMM connected to a suspected circuit. An abnormal reading on the DMM when the problem occurs, may help you
locate the problem.

speed. A sudden increase in speed with little change in actual engine speed change
indicates that EMI is present. If a problem exists, check routing of high voltage
components, such as fuel injector solenoid valve wiring, near the sensor circuits.

Replacement
Description
The following A - G steps provide an overview
procedure to replace and reprogram an ECM. Each A -
G steps is explained further in this section.
A. Recoding Fuel Injector ID Code
Each fuel injector is designated with 24 hexadecimal
characters (0 - 9 or A - F) that MUST be programmed
into the ECM for correct engine fueling for each specific
cylinder. These characters can be retrieved in one of
following places:
Retrieving the Fuel Injector ID Code Data from the
ECM
The current fuel injector ID code data can be retrieved
with a scan tool. If the old ECM cannot be
communicated with a scan tool, go to the next
procedure.
1. Install a scan tool.
2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
3. Select Diagnostics > appropriate vehicle identification > 4JK1 or 4JJ1 > Programming >
Injector ID Code.
4. Record 24 digits of each fuel injector ID code.
5. After complete the recording, turn OFF the scan tool.
6. Turn OFF the ignition.
Retrieving the Fuel Injector ID Code Data with a
Non-communicating ECM
If a scan tool does not communicate, the fuel injector ID
codes must be recorded from the factory affixed label
on the cylinder head cover or each fuel injector harness
connector housing. Recording from the label on cylinder head cover
Notice: Only perform this procedure if the fuel injectors
are not being replaced in the past.
1. Record all numbers of each cylinder on the label.
Legend 1. Cylinder #1 fuel injector ID code
2. Cylinder #2 fuel injector ID code
3. Cylinder #3 fuel injector ID code
4. Cylinder #4 fuel injector ID code
5. Injector ID code label
Recording from each fuel injector
1. Disconnect each fuel injector harness connector.
A. Record the fuel injector ID codes manually from the old ECM.
B. Reset the immobilizer security information in the old ECM. (If so equipped)
C. Replace the old ECM with the new ECM.
D. Program the immoblizer security information into the new ECM. (If so equipped)
E. Program the latest software and calibrations into the new ECM using the Service Programming System
(SPS).
F. Program the recorded fuel injector ID codes and the vehicle identification number (VIN) into the ECM using
a scan tool programming function.
G. Perform the fuel supply pump relearn procedure by allowing the engine to idle in Park or Neutral until
normal operating temperature is achieved.
