P2008 - Short Runner Valve Control Circuit






For wiring diagrams, refer to.

When Monitored: With the engine run time more than a calibrated value, battery voltage greater than 10.4 volts, ECT within a specific range, and the short runner valve assembly control active.

Set Condition: This PCM compares the circuit feedback to a calibrated closed range when the circuit is de-energized or to a calibrated open range when the circuit is energized. If the value is determined to be out of the calibrated range in either the de-energized or energized state for more than a calibrated amount of time, this DTC will set.






Always perform the pre-diagnostic troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure

Test Step 1 - DTC is Active

Turn the ignition ON.

With the scan tool, clear DTCs in the PCM.

With the scan tool, actuate the SRV solenoid control state.

With the scan tool, select view DTCs.

Is the status active for this DTC?

Yes

Go to Test Step 2 => [ Test
Step 2 - ASD Relay Output Circuit Open or High Resistance ]

No

Refer to the checking for an intermittent DTC diagnostic procedure. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. Checking for an Intermittent DTC

Test Step 2 - ASD Relay Output Circuit Open or High Resistance






Turn the ignition OFF.

Disconnect the short runner valve assembly harness connector.

Turn the ignition ON.

With the scan tool, actuate the auto shutdown relay control state.

Using a test lamp connected to ground, check the ASD relay output circuit in the short runner valve assembly harness connector.

The test lamp should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

Is the test lamp illuminated and bright?

Yes

Go to Test Step 3 => [ Test
Step 3 - SRV Control Circuit Shorted to Ground ]

No

Repair the ASD relay output circuit for an open or high resistance.

Perform the PCM Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC
Based Diagnostics. PCM Verification Test

Test Step 3 - SRV Control Circuit Shorted to Ground






Turn the ignition OFF.

Measure the resistance between ground and the SRV control circuit in the short runner valve assembly harness connector.

Is the resistance more than 100 ohms?

Yes

Go to Test Step 4 => [ Test
Step 4 - SRV Control Circuit Open or High Resistance ]

No

Repair the SRV control circuit for a short to ground.

Perform the PCM Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC
Based Diagnostics. PCM Verification Test

Test Step 4 - SRV Control Circuit Open or High Resistance







Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals, resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install Miller Special Tool #8815 to perform diagnosis.

Measure the resistance of the SRV control circuit between the short runner valve assembly harness connector and the appropriate terminal of special tool #8815.

Is the resistance less than 5.0 ohms?

Yes

Go to Test Step 5 => [ Test
Step 5 - Short Runner Valve Assembly ]

No

Repair the SRV control circuit for an open or high resistance.

Perform the PCM Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC
Based Diagnostics. PCM Verification Test

Test Step 5 - Short Runner Valve Assembly






Connect the PCM connector.

Connect the short runner valve assembly connector.

Using a test lamp connected to 12 volts, check the SRV control circuit in the short runner valve assembly harness connector.

Turn the ignition ON.

With the scan tool, actuate the SRV solenoid control state to toggle.

If the DTC is active, the actuation test may not be allowed by the PCM. If may be necessary to clear the DTCs before starting the actuation.

The test lamp should illuminate on and off with the actuation.

Does the test lamp illuminate on and off with the actuation?

Yes

Replace the short runner valve assembly.

Perform the PCM Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC
Based Diagnostics. PCM Verification Test

No

Go to Test Step 6 => [ Test
Step 6 - PCM ]

Test Step 6 - PCM

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the short runner valve assembly and the powertrain control module.

Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.

Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.

Refer to any technical service bulletins that may apply.

Were any problems found?

Yes

Repair as necessary.

Perform the PCM Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC
Based Diagnostics. PCM Verification Test

No

Replace and program the PCM.

Perform the PCM Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC
Based Diagnostics. PCM Verification Test
