Diagnostic Chart (Part 2 Of 2):

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The 3X reference signal is produced by the Ignition Control (IC) module. The IC module calculates the 3X reference signal by dividing the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor 7X pulses by 2 when the engine is running and the CKP synchronizing pulses are being received. The PCM uses the 3X reference signal to calculate the engine RPM and the crankshaft position at engine speeds above 1600 RPM. The PCM also uses these pulses to initiate injector pulses. The PCM compares the 3X reference pulses to the 24X CKP pulses and the CMP pulses. If the PCM receives an incorrect number of pulses on the 3X circuit a DTC P1374 will set and the PCM will use the 24X CKP reference circuit for fuel and ignition control. The engine will continue to start and run using only the 24X CKP and Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor signals.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
The engine is running (24X reference pulses are being received).

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ The ratio of 24X reference pulses to 3X reference pulses received by the PCM does not equal 8.
^ The ratio of 24X reference pulses to camshaft position PCM input pulses received by the PCM equals 48.
^ The conditions are present for more than 10 seconds.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The PCM will illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test has been run and failed.
^ The PCM will store conditions which were present when the DTC set as Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.
^ If the misfire is determined to be catalyst damaging, the PCM will flash the MIL.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ The PCM will turn OFF the MIL during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic has been run and passed.
^ The History DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
^ The DTC can be cleared by using a scan tool.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
DTC P1374 can be caused by secondary components leaking high voltage into the IC Module. Inspect for the following conditions:
^ Incorrect harness routing near secondary ignition components
^ Ignition coil arcing to wiring harness or IC Module Inspect the ignition coils for the following conditions:
- Cracks
- Carbon tracking
- Any other signs of damage
^ Secondary ignition wires arcing to wiring harness
^ The MAP sensor reading will freeze when the 3X signal is lost.

After the MAP sensor freezes, DTC P0101 Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance may set due to the incorrect MAP Value and the engine may be hard to start (possible long crank). Eventually (after a long crank) a DTC P0108 Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Circuit High Voltage may also set and replace the MAP sensor value with a default value and the engine will start and regain some performance.

IMPORTANT: Remove any debris from the connector surfaces before servicing a component. Inspect the connector gaskets when diagnosing or replacing a component. Ensure that the gaskets are installed correctly. The gaskets prevent contaminate intrusion.

^ Poor terminal connection-Inspect the harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and faulty terminal to wire connection. Use a corresponding mating terminal to test for proper tension.
^ Damaged harness-Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness inspection does not reveal a problem, observe the display on the scan tool while moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the sensor. A change in the scan tool display may indicate the location of the fault.
^ PCM and engine grounds for clean and secure connections

If the DTC is determined to be intermittent, reviewing the Failure Records can be useful in determining when the DTC was last set.

TEST DESCRIPTION
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table:
10. This vehicle is equipped with a PCM which utilizes an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM). When the PCM is being replaced, the new PCM must be programmed.
