DTC P0605

PCM monitors errors through check sum. Every information consists of the combination of 0 and 1, checksum means summing up all values in a row. Thus, errors are recognized comparing check sum value and the memory value at ECM/PCM.

DTC DESCRIPTION
ECM detects the signal exchanges between micro-processor and sensor/actuator.

DTC Detecting Condition:






MONITOR SCANTOOL DATA
1. Connect scantool to Data Link Connector(DLC).
2. Key "ON".




3. Monitor DTC(Diagnostics Trouble Code) on the scantool.
4. Are the parameters displayed correctly?

YES - Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the sensor's and/or ECM's connector or was repaired and ECM/PCM memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and go to "Verification of vehicle Repair" procedure.

NO - Go to "Terminal and Connector Inspection" procedure.

TERMINAL AND CONNECTOR INSPECTION
1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
2. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
3. Has a problem been found?

YES - Repair as necessary and go to "Verification of vehicle Repair" procedure.

NO - Substitute with a known - good ECM/PCM and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace ECM/PCM and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
