P1639
Diagnostic Chart:
Engine Controls Schematics: A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor, TP, MAP, ECT and IAT Sensor:
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The PCM uses the 5 Volt Reference B circuit as a sensor feed to the A/C Pressure and Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor. The PCM monitors the voltage on the 5 Volt Reference B circuit. If the voltage is out of tolerance, the PCM will set DTC P1639.
CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
The ignition is on.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ The PCM detects a voltage out of tolerance condition on the 5 Volt Reference B circuit.
^ Above condition for longer than 30 seconds.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Inspect for the following conditions:
IMPORTANT: Remove any debris from the connector surfaces before servicing a component. Inspect the connector gaskets when diagnosing or replacing a component. Ensure that the gaskets are installed correctly. The gaskets prevent contaminate intrusion.
^ Poor terminal connection.
Inspect the harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and faulty terminal to wire connection. Use a corresponding mating terminal to test for proper tension. Refer to Diagrams for diagnosis and repair.
^ Damaged harness.
Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness inspection does not reveal a problem, observe the display on the scan tool while moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the sensor. A change in the scan tool display may indicate the location of the fault. Refer to Diagrams for diagnosis and repair.
^ Inspect the PCM and the engine grounds for clean and secure connections.
If the DTC is determined to be intermittent, reviewing the Failure Records can be useful in determining when the DTC was last set.
TEST DESCRIPTION
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the Diagnostic Table:
7. 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.
