CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the ignition voltage on the ignition feed #2 circuit to the PCM. A system voltage DTC will set whenever the voltage is below a calibrated value.


CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC

The ignition voltage is greater than 17 V.


ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS

^ The PCM will record operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. This information will be stored in the Failure Records buffer.

^ A history DTC is stored.

^ All outputs will be disabled.


CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC

^ A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm up cycles without a fault.

^ DTC(s) can be cleared by using a scan tool.


DIAGNOSTIC AIDS

^ Charging the battery with a battery charger and starting the engine may set a DTC.

^ If the DTC sets when an accessory is operated, check for a poor connection or excessive current draw.

^ Additional DTC's may be set as the result of the PCM disabling the outputs.


TEST DESCRIPTION

Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the Diagnostic Table.

1. The Powertrain OBD System Check prompts the technician to complete some basic checks and store the freeze frame and failure records data on the scan tool if applicable. This creates an electronic copy of the data taken when the fault occurred. The information is then stored on the scan tool for later reference.

3. Replacement PCM's must be reprogrammed. Refer to the latest Techline information for programming procedures.

5. If no faults have been found at this point and no additional DTC's were set, refer to Diagnostic Aids for additional checks and information.
