Diagnostic Test

1. CHECKING FOR CURRENT 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.


NOTE: Ensure all turbocharger inlet and outlet tubes are connected properly, without damage and restriction before continuing with this test.


Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, erase ECM DTCs.
Cycle the ignition key on and off several times, leaving the key on for at least 10 seconds at a time.
With the scan tool, read ECM DTCs.

Did this DTC set again?

Yes


No

2. MEASURE THE INLET PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT VOLTAGE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Inlet Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage between ground and the Inlet Pressure Sensor Signal circuit.

Is the voltage above 1.0 volt?

Yes


No

3. INLET PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the ECM harness connectors.
Remove the ASD Relay.
Connect a jumper wire between cavity 30 and cavity 87 of the ASD Relay connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage between ground and the Inlet Pressure Sensor Signal circuit.

Is the voltage above 1.0 volt?

Yes


No

4. INLET PRESSURE SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE



Measure the voltage between ground and the Inlet Pressure Sensor Ground circuit.

Is the voltage above 1.0 volt?

Yes


No

5. INLET PRESSURE SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the ECM harness connectors.
Measure the resistance of the Inlet Pressure Sensor Ground circuit.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

6. INLET PRESSURE SENSOR



NOTE: Ensure all harness connectors are connected.


Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the Inlet Pressure Sensor Signal circuit by back probing ECM harness connector.

Is the voltage above 4.85 volts?

Yes


No
