P1635
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONThe Powertrain Control Module (PCM) uses the 5-volt reference 1 circuit as a sensor feed to the following sensors:
^ The Throttle Position (TP) sensor
^ The manifold air pressure (MAP) sensor
^ The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve pintle position sensor
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the voltage on the 5-volt reference 1 circuit. If the voltage is out of tolerance, the PCM will set DTC P1635.
CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
The engine is running.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ The PCM detects a voltage out of tolerance condition on the 5-volt reference 1 circuit.
^ The above condition is present for longer than 10 seconds.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The PCM will illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test has been run and failed.
^ The PCM will store conditions which were present when the DTC set as Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ The PCM will turn OFF the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic has run and passed.
^ The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
^ The DTC can be cleared by using a scan tool.
TEST DESCRIPTION
Steps 1-6:
Steps 7-14:
The number below refers to the step number on the diagnostic table.
12. This vehicle is equipped with a PCM which utilizes an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM). When the PCM is being replaced, the new PCM must be programmed.
