Intermittent Conditions
ChecksAction
Definition:
The problem is not currently present but is indicated in DTC History.
OR
There is a customer complaint, but the symptom cannot currently be duplicated, if the problem is not DTC related.
Preliminary Checks • Refer to Symptoms - Engine Controls before starting.
Harness/ Connector Many intermittent open or shorted circuits are affected by harness/ connector
movement that is caused by vibration, engine torque, bumps/ rough pavement, etc.
Test for this type of condition by performing the applicable procedure from the following
list:
• Move related connectors and wiring while monitoring the appropriate scan tool data.
• Move related connectors and wiring with the component commanded ON, and OFF, with the scan tool. Observe the component operation.
• With the engine running, move related connectors and wiring while monitoring engine operation.
If harness or connector movement affects the data displayed, component/ system
operation, or engine operation, inspect and repair the harness/ connections as
necessary.
Electrical Connections or Wiring Poor electrical connections, terminal tension or wiring problems cause most intermittent. To perform the following inspections:
• Poor mating of the connector halves, or terminals improperly seated in the connector body.
• Improperly formed or damaged terminals. Test for poor terminal tension.
• Poor terminal to wire connections including terminals crimped over insulation. This requires removing the terminal from the connector body.
• Corrosion/ water intrusion. Pierced or damaged insulation can allow moisture to enter the wiring. The conductor can corrode inside the insulation, with little visible
evidence. Look for swollen and stiff sections of wire in the suspect circuits.
• Wires that are broken inside the insulation.
• Harness for pinched, cut or rubbed through wiring.
• Ensure that the wiring does not come in contact with hot exhaust components.
Control Module Power and Grounds
Component Power and Grounds Poor power or ground connections can cause widely varying symptoms.
• Test all control module power supply circuits. Many vehicles have multiple circuits supplying power to the control module. Other components in the system may have
separate power supply circuits that may also need to be tested. Inspect connections
at the module/ component connectors, fuses, and any intermediate connections
between the power source and the module/ component. A test lamp or a DMM may
indicate that voltage is present, but neither tests the ability of the circuit to carry
sufficient current. Ensure that the circuit can carry the current necessary to operate
the component.
• Test all control module ground and system ground circuits. The control module may have multiple ground circuits. Other components in the system may have separate
grounds that may also need to be tested. Inspect grounds for clean and tight
connections at the grounding point. Inspect the connections at the component and
in splice packs, where applicable. Ensure that the circuit can carry the current
necessary to operate the component.

parameter on the scan tool will repeatedly indicate
Learning and Learned.Service Programming System (SPS)
Description
The service programming system (SPS) allows a
technician to program a control module through the
data link connector (DLC). The information transfer
circuit that is used at the DLC is the same serial data
circuit used by the scan tool for retrieving DTCs,
displaying data, clearing DTCs etc. This procedure
offers the ability to install software/ calibrations
matched to a particular vehicle.
Most control modules have two types of memory. The
software/ calibrations reside in the flash memory. The
two types of memory are listed below:
• Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM)
This type of memory allows selected portions of
memory to be programmed while other portions
remain unchanged.
Certain learned values reside in the EEPROM,
such as:
- The vehicle identification number (VIN)
- The software/ calibrations identification numbers
- The control module security information
• Flash Read Only Memory-Flash Memory Flash memory has increased memory storage
capacity. During programming, all information
within this type of memory is erased, and then
replaced with entirely new information.
Service Programming Methods
The two methods of programming an ECM are listed
below:
• Remote Programming
• Pass Thru Programming
For information on programming an ECM using one of
the methods listed above, refer to Service
Programming System (SPS) (Remote Procedure) or
Service Programming System (SPS) (Pass-Thru
Procedure).
Before Programming a Control Module
Important: DO NOT program an existing ECM with the
identical software/ calibration package. This procedure is not
a short cut to correct the driveability condition. This is an
ineffective repair. An ECM should only be programmed when
the following occurs:
• When a service procedure instructs you to replace the ECM.
• An updated software/ calibrations is released.
Ensure that the following conditions are met before
programming an ECM:
• The scan tool PCMCIA card is programmed with the latest software.
• The TIS 2000 is installed with the latest software.

• The ignition switch is in the proper position. The scan tool prompts you to turn ON the ignition, with
the engine OFF. DO NOT change the position of
the ignition switch during the programming
procedure unless instructed to do so.
• All tool connections are secure: - The RS-232 cable
- The connection at the DLC
- The voltage supply circuits
• DO NOT disturb the tool harnesses while programming. If an interruption occurs during the
programming procedure, programming failure or
ECM damage may occur.
• If you are performing the Pass-Thru programming procedure using a notebook computer without the
power cord, ensure that the internal battery is fully
charged.

Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electronic components used in the ECM are often
designed to carry very low voltage. Electronic
components are susceptible to damage caused by
electrostatic discharge. By comparison, as much as
4,000 volts may be needed for a person to feel even
the zap of a static discharge. There are several ways
for a person to become statically charged. The most
common methods of charging are by friction and
induction.
• An example of charging by friction is a person sliding across a vehicle seat.
Important: To prevent possible electrostatic discharge
damage, follow these guidelines:
• Do not touch the ECM connector pins or soldered components on the ECM circuit board.
• Do not open the replacement part package until the part is ready to be installed.
• Before removing the part from the package, ground the package to a known good ground on
the vehicle.
• If the part has been handled while sliding across the seat, while sitting down from a standing
position, or while walking a distance, touch a
known good ground before installing the part.
• Charge by induction occurs when a person with well insulated shoes stands near a highly charged
object and momentarily touches ground. Charges
of the same polarity are drained off leaving the
person highly charged with opposite polarity.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Operation
The MIL is located in the instrument panel cluster. The
MIL will display the following symbols when
commanded ON: The MIL indicates that an emission related fault (Type
A or B) has occurred (Euro 4 specification) or engine
performance related fault has occurred (except Euro 4
specification) and vehicle service is required. The
following is a list of the modes of operation for the MIL:
• The MIL illuminates when the ignition switch is turned ON, with the engine OFF. This is a bulb test
to ensure the MIL is able to illuminate.
• The MIL turns OFF after the engine is started if a diagnostic fault is not present.
• The MIL remains illuminated after the engine is started if the ECM detects a fault. A DTC is stored
any time the ECM illuminates the MIL due to an
emission related fault (Euro 4 specification), and
engine performance related fault has occurred
(except Euro 4 specification).
Service Vehicle Soon (SVS) Lamp Operation (Euro
4 Specification)
The service vehicle soon (SVS) lamp is located in the
instrument panel cluster. The SVS lamp will display the
following symbol when commanded ON:
The SVS lamp indicates that a non-emission related
fault (Type C) has occurred and vehicle service
required. The following is a list of the modes of
operation for the SVS lamp:
• The SVS lamp illuminates when the ignition switch is turned ON, with the engine OFF. This is a bulb
test to ensure the SVS lamp is able to illuminate.
• The SVS lamp turns OFF after the engine is started if a diagnostic fault is not present.
• The SVS lamp remains illuminated after the engine is started if the ECM detects a fault. A DTC is
stored any time the ECM illuminates the SVS lamp
due to a non-emission related fault.

Fuel System Component Description
Injector
Legend
1. Fuel injector ID code
2. Leak off pipe
3. Two dimensional barcode
4. Port for mounting the injection pipe
5. O-ring

Electronic control type injectors controlled by the ECM
are used. Compared with conventional injection
nozzles, a command piston, solenoid valve, etc. are
added.
ID codes displaying various injector characteristic are
laser marked on the connector housing, and ID codes showing these in numeric form (24 alphanumeric
figures). This system uses fuel injector flow rate
information (ID codes) to optimize injection quantity
control. When an injector is newly installed in a vehicle,
it is necessary to input the ID codes in the ECM.
QR (Quick Response) codes or fuel injector flow rate
(ID codes) have been adopted to enhance the injection
quantity precision of the injectors. The adoption of
codes enables injection quantity dispersion control
throughout all pressure ranges, contributing to
improvement in combustion efficiency and reduction in
exhaust gas emissions.

6E–68 ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD)
On-Board Diagnostic Tests
A diagnostic test is a series of steps, the result of which
is a pass or fail reported to the diagnostic executive.
When a diagnostic test reports a pass result, the
diagnostic executive records the following data:
• The diagnostic test has been completed since the last ignition cycle.
• The diagnostic test has passed during the current ignition cycle.
• The fault identified by the diagnostic test is not currently active.
When a diagnostic test reports a fail result, the
diagnostic executive records the following data:
• The diagnostic test has been completed since the last ignition cycle.
• The fault identified by the diagnostic test is currently active.
• The fault has been active during this ignition cycle.
• The operating conditions at the time of the failure.
The Diagnostic Executive
The Diagnostic Executive is a unique segment of
software which is designed to coordinate and prioritize
the diagnostic procedures as well as define the protocol
for recording and displaying their results. The main
responsibilities of the Diagnostic Executive are listed as
follows:
• Commanding the check engine lamp on and off
• DTC logging and clearing
• Current status information on each diagnostic
Diagnostic Information
The diagnostic charts and functional checks are
designed to locate a faulty circuit or component through
a process of logical decisions. The charts are prepared
with the requirement that the vehicle functioned
correctly at the time of assembly and that there are not
multiple faults present.
There is a continuous self-diagnosis on certain control
functions. This diagnostic capability is complemented
by the diagnostic procedures contained in this manual.
The language of communicating the source of the
malfunction is a system of diagnostic trouble codes.
When a malfunction is detected by the control module, a
diagnostic trouble code is set and the check engine
lamp is illuminated.
Check Engine Lamp
The check engine lamp looks the same as the check
engine lamp you are already familiar with, the “Check
Engine” lamp.
Basically, the check engine lamp is turned on when the
ECM detects a DTC that will impact the vehicle
emissions.
• When the check engine lamp remains “ON” while the engine is running, or when a malfunction is suspected due to a driveability or emissions problem,
a Powertrain On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System
Check must be performed. The procedures for these
checks are given in On-Board Diagnostic (OBD)
System Check. These checks will expose faults
which may not be detected if other diagnostics are
performed first.
Data Link Connector (DLC)
The provision for communication with the contorl
module is the Data Link Connector (DLC). It is located
behind the lower front instrument panel. The DLC is
used to connect to a Tech 2. Some common uses of the
Tech 2 are listed below:
• Identifying stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
• Clearing DTCs.
• Reading serial data.
Verifying Vehicle Repair
Verification of vehicle repair will be more
comprehensive for vehicles with OBD system
diagnostic. Following a repair, the technician should
perform the following steps:
1. Review and record the Fail Records for the DTC which has been diagnosed.
2. Clear DTC(s).
3. Operate the vehicle within conditions noted in the Fail Records.
4. Monitor the DTC status information for the specific DTC which has been diagnosed until the diagnostic
test associated with that DTC runs.
Following these steps is very important in verifying
repairs on OBD systems. Failure to follow these steps
could result in unnecessary repairs.
