DTC Descriptor
DTC P1682
- Ignition 1 Switch Circuit 2
Diagnostic Fault Information
Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
There are 2 ignition 1 voltage circuits supplied to the engine control module (ECM). The first ignition 1 voltage circuit is provided by the powertrain relay, which is PWR/TRN relay, through a fuse. This ignition 1 voltage circuit supplies power to all the internal ECM circuits associated with the throttle actuator control (TAC) operation. The ignition main relay provides the second ignition 1 voltage circuit to the ECM through a fuse. This ignition 1 voltage provides power to other internal ECM circuits, except those associated with TAC operation. The ECM continuously monitors the voltage level difference between the 2 circuits.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* The ignition is in the Unlock/Accessory, Run, or Crank position.
* The system voltage is more than 5.23 volts.
* The powertrain relay is commanded ON.
* DTC P1682 runs continuously when the above conditions are met.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ignition 1 voltage of the ignition main relay is more than 3 volts different than the ignition 1 voltage of the powertrain relay for more than 2 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P1682 is a Type A DTC.
Engine may operate in a reduced engine power mode.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P1682 is a Type A DTC.
Circuit/System Verification
Important: On the scan tool, the powertrain relay is referred to as the EC ignition relay.
1. If DTCs P0685, P0689, or P0690 are set, diagnose those DTCs first.
2. Ignition ON, engine OFF, observe both the Ignition 1 Voltage signal and the EC Ignition Relay Feedback signal parameters on the scan tool. Both parameter values should display no more than 3 volts difference between the two parameters.
^ If the vehicle passes the Circuit/System Verification test, operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that are captured in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data list.
Circuit/System Testing
Important: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.
Testing the Ignition 1 Signal Circuit
Important: A resistance of 5 ohms or greater in the circuit will cause the DTC to set.
1. Ignition ON, verify that B+ is available to both test points of the fuse from the ignition main relay to the ECM.
^ If B+ is only available on one test point of the fuse, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit from the fuse to the ECM for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
^ If B+ is not available on either test point of the fuse, replace the underhood fuse block.
2. Ignition OFF, disconnect the ECM X1 connector.
3. Ignition ON, verify that B+ is available at X1-19.
^ If B+ is not available, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit for an open/high resistance condition. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
4. If all circuits test normal, replace the ECM.
Testing the EC Ignition Relay Feedback Circuit
Important: A resistance of 5 ohms or greater in the circuit will cause the DTC to set.
1. Ignition OFF, remove the powertrain relay, which is PWR/TRN relay, from the underhood fuse block.
2. ignition ON, connect a 3A fused jumper wire from B+ to the powertrain relay ignition 1 voltage circuit terminal 87. Verify that the EC Ignition Relay Feedback parameter displays B+ on the scan tool.
^ If the scan tool parameter is less than the specified value, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
