Circuit/System Description

The engine control module (ECM) has 3 5-volt reference circuits. The ECM provides the 5-volt reference to various sensors. Each reference circuit provides a 5-volt reference for greater than one sensor. An open, short to ground, or short voltage on one of the 5-volt reference circuits can affect all the components connected to that 5-volt reference circuit. The ECM monitors the voltage on the 5-volt reference circuits.


Conditions for Running the DTC

* The ignition is ON for greater than 3 seconds.
* DTCs P0641, P0642, P0643, P0651, P0652, P0653, P0697, P0698, and P0699 run continuously when the above condition is met.



Conditions for Setting the DTC

The 5-volt reference circuit voltage is above or below a predetermined threshold for greater than 4 seconds.


Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTCs P0641, P0642, P0643, P0651, P0652, P0653, P0697, P0698, and P0699 are Type A DTCs.


Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTCs P0641, P0642, P0643, P0651, P0652, P0653, P0697, P0698, and P0699 are Type A DTCs.


Diagnostic Aids

- The engine oil pressure (EOP) sensor

* The 5-volt reference 2 circuit provides 5 volts to the following sensors:

- All four camshaft position (CMP) sensors
- Accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 1

* The 5-volt reference 3 circuit provides 5 volts to the following sensors:

- Throttle position sensor (TPS) 1 and 2
- Crankshaft position (CKP) sensor
- Accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 2
- A/C pressure sensor

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON, observe the DTC information with a scan tool. DTC P0641, P0642, P0643, P0651, P0652, P0653, P0697, P0698, or P0699 should not set.
2. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.



Circuit/System Testing


Important: Additional DTCs will set when disconnecting the components.


1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector of all appropriate sensors for the applicable DTC. Refer to Diagnostic Aids.
2. Ignition ON, measure for 4.6-5.2 volts between one of the affected 5-volt reference circuits and ground.

• If the voltage is less than the specified range, test for an open between the ECM and the splice for all of the affected components.
Test for a short to ground on the 5-volt reference circuit for each of the affected components. If all circuits test normal, replace the control module.
• If the voltage is greater than the specified range, test for a short to voltage on the 5-volt reference circuit for each of the affected components associated with the appropriate 5-volt reference circuit. If all circuits test normal, replace the control module.


Important: A short to voltage on the signal circuit of certain components may cause this DTC to set.


3. Connect each component associated with the affected 5-volt reference circuit one at a time while monitoring the appropriate 5-Volt Reference Circuit Status parameter with a scan tool. The parameter should continue to display OK.

• If the parameter displays Fault when a component is connected, test the signal circuit of that component for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the component.
