Diagnostic Test

1. CHECK FOR ACTIVE DTC

NOTE: If the ECM detects and stores a DTC, the ECM also stores the engine/vehicle operating conditions under which the DTC was set. Some of these conditions are displayed on the scan tool at the same time the DTC is displayed.


NOTE: Before erasing stored DTCs, record these conditions. Attempting to duplicate these conditions may assist when checking for an active DTC.


Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool , erase ECM DTCs.
Test drive the vehicle.
Monitor the scan tool for ECM DTCs.

Did this DTC set again?

Yes


No

2. ASD OUTPUT CKT OPEN



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the EGR Air Flow Control Valve harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the ASD Relay Output circuit.

Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes


No

3. EGR AIR FLOW CONTROL VALVE SHORTED TO GROUND



Disconnect the ECM harness connectors.
Measure the resistance between ground and the EGR Air Flow Control Valve Control circuit.

Is the resistance above 1000 ohms?

Yes


No

4. EGR AIR FLOW CONTROL VALVE CIRCUIT OPEN



Measure the resistance of the EGR Air Flow Control Valve Control circuit.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

5. EGR AIR FLOW CONTROL VALVE

Install a substitute EGR Air Flow Control Valve in place of the vehicle's EGR Air Flow Control Valve.

NOTE: Ensure the ECM and EGR Air Flow Control Valve harness connectors are connected.


Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool , check for this DTC to set again.

Did this DTC set again?
