3 IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE Appropriate service methods and proper repair procedures are essential for the safe, reliable operation of all motor vehicles, as well as the personal safety of the individual doing the work. This manual provides general directions for accomplishing service and repair work with tested, effective techniques. Following them will help assure reliability. There are numerous variations in procedures, techniques, tools and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as in the skill of the individual doing the work. This manual cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or cautions as to each. Accordingly, anyone who departs from instructions provided in this manual must first establish that he compromises neither his personal safety nor the vehicle integrity by his choice of methods, tools or parts. As you read through the procedures, you will come across NOTES, CAUTIONS, and WARNINGS. Each one is there for a specific purpose. NOTES give you added information that will help you to complete a particular procedure. CAUTIONS are given to prevent you from making an error that could damage the vehicle. WARNINGS remind you to be especially careful in those areas where carelessness can cause personal injury. The following list contains some general WARNINGS that you should follow when you work on a vehicle. Always wear safety glasses for eye protection. Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires you to be under the vehicle. Be sure that the ignition switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the procedure. Set the parking brake when working on the vehicle. If you have an automatic transmission, set it in PARK unless instructed otherwise for a specific service operation. If you have a manual transmission it should be in REVERSE (engine OFF) or NEUTRAL (engine ON) unless instructed otherwise for a specific service operation. Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area to avoid the danger of carbon monoxide. Keep yourself and your clothing away from moving parts when the engine is running, especially the fan and belts. To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust manifold, tail pipe, catalytic converter and muffler. Do not smoke while working on the vehicle. To avoid injury, always remove rings, watches, loose hanging jewelry, and loose clothing before beginning to work on a vehicle. Tie long hair securely behind your head. Keep hands and other objects clear of the radiator fan blades. Electric cooling fans can start to operate at any time by an increase in underhood temperatures, even though the ignition is in the OFF position. Therefore, care should be taken to ensure that the electric cooling fan is completely disconnected when working under the hood. The recommendations and suggestions contained in this manual are made to assist the dealer in improving his dealership parts and/or service department operations. These recommendations and suggestions do not supersede or override the provisions of the Warranty and Policy Manual, and in any cases where there may be a conflict, the provisions of the Warranty and Policy Manual shall govern.

22 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE SSCC Process SSCC Process Following the Symptom to System, Component to Cause (SSCC) process leads you to the failed component and the root cause of that failure. 1-2 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

23 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW SSCC Process Symptom Verification CHECK ENGINE C CHECK FUEL CAP F EP2102-A/VF Symptom Verification - MIL ON Customers bring their vehicles into the dealership because they have experienced something out of the ordinary. Your first step in the diagnostic process must be to verify the symptom or concern. Diagnosis and Testing September,

24 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE SSCC Process System Identification System Elimination Once the symptom has been verified, the next step is to determine the system that could be causing the customer's concern. You begin by eliminating systems that could not cause the concern. 1-4 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

25 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW SSCC Process Component Identification Testing Components NOTE: Always use the proper flex probes when testing with the DVOM. Once the system has been identified, you must determine the component that has failed. Perform the necessary tests on the suspect system to identify the failed circuit or component. Diagnosis and Testing September,

26 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE SSCC Process Cause Determination EP2105-A/VF EPII001-A/VF Repairing and Determining Root Cause At this point, the symptom has been verified, the system has been identified, and the failed component/circuit has been identified. Now, the root cause must be determined to ensure that the failure does not recur. 1-6 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

27 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW Diagnostic Process The individual tasks incorporated within the SSCC process include the following: Diagnostic Steps Diagnosis and Testing September,

28 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE Diagnostic Process Verify the Symptom(s) EP2107-A/VF Road Test/Visual Inspection The first step is always verifying that the concern exists. Verifying the symptom (customer's concern) can be as simple as doing a visual inspection to confirm that in fact there is a failure, or as complex as an intermittent stalling condition that needs to be captured using a Vehicle Data Recorder (VDR). 1-8 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

29 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW Diagnostic Process Identifying Conditions Repair Order/Consulting the Customer The repair order is the first piece of information you receive. At this point, the customer's concern is an interpretation of the information the service advisor gathered from the customer. The vehicle may have to be placed under certain conditions, such as driven under a load, turning a sharp corner, or coming to a stop, to recreate the concern. If the repair order does not clearly define those conditions, or the concern could not be duplicated, then consult the service adviser or customer for further information. Diagnosis and Testing September,

30 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE Diagnostic Process Identify Related Symptoms Identify Related Symptoms/Systems If the work order contains multiple symptoms, look for a relationship among those symptoms that could help you pinpoint the failed system. As soon as the symptom(s) is verified, start a mental evaluation of what you experienced. Start identifying systems that you think could create the symptom(s). Once you have made the determination that the symptom is a driveability concern, check OASIS for information that may help isolate the system September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

31 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW Diagnostic Process Identify the System(s) OASIS/Service Publications/WDS Once the symptom (customer s concern) is identified, the system(s) that is causing the concern has to be identified. Use all available tools and resources to complete this step. Go to the Symptom Charts section of the PC/ED and perform a Quick Test. Carefully review and evaluate all of the information downloaded from OASIS. If any of the TSBs, special service messages, or open recalls relate to the symptom you have experienced, follow the directions within the information to continue diagnosis. Finally, review the service history information. The service history could relate previous repairs to the symptom you are experiencing. For example, if the vehicle you are diagnosing has just had a battery replaced and now the engine idles rough for a brief period when first started, there is a possibility that the information stored in KAM has not been relearned and could be the cause of the symptom. Section 3 - Symptom Charts QT Step 1: PCM Quick Test Index Step 2: No DTC(s) Present Symptom Chart Index Step 3: No DTC(s) Present Symptom Charts Diagnosis and Testing September,

32 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE Diagnostic Process Isolate the Failure EP2110-A/VF Pinpoint Test When directed to a pinpoint test, always read the information and look at the schematic included at the beginning of the pinpoint test. Never enter a pinpoint test unless you are directed to go there September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

33 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW Diagnostic Process Interpret Test Results Throttle Position (TP) Sensor Test NOTE: Always use the proper flex probes when testing with the DVOM. It is important to understand why you are performing a specific test, so that if the vehicle fails the test, you have a clear understanding of what made it fail. You may have to use specific reference value charts to help you interpret test results. In this example, the correct voltage value is 5 volts, and the DVOM reads 5 volts. This test verifies that the SIG RTN and the VREF circuits are complete and the failure lies elsewhere. Diagnosis and Testing September,

34 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE Diagnostic Process Isolate the Root Cause EP2112-A/VF TP Wire Cut The root cause of the failure must be determined to ensure the failure does not recur. The root cause can be simple or complex. In either case, a thorough examination of the circumstances involved in the failure must be performed. In this example, the root cause of the TP circuit failure is the wiring harness is routed too close to the plastic shield. The wiring harness has to be rerouted to prevent similar failures September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

35 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW Diagnostic Process Make the Repair EP2113-A/VF Wire Repair Procedure Item Description Item Description 1 Strip the wires 4 Position heat shrink tubing over wire repair (overlap) 2 Install heat shrink tubing, twist wires together, solder wires 3 Bend wires back in straight line* *Wait for solder to cool before moving wires. 5 Apply heat to the heat shrink tubing until adhesive flows out of both ends Once the failure has been identified and the root cause corrected, the repair must be made. Consult the Workshop Manual or Wiring Diagrams (EVTM) for proper repair procedures. Diagnosis and Testing September,

36 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE Diagnostic Process Verify the repair EP2114-A/VF Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS) The final step of any diagnostic procedure is to verify that the repair has resolved the concern as well as not created any new concerns. Therefore, it is necessary to clear all DTCs and retest the vehicle under the same conditions at which you originally verified the symptom. This could include road testing through the entire OBD II drive cycle, or portions of the OBD II drive cycle, as indicated at the end of the diagnostic pinpoint test. During testing procedures, you will be instructed to disconnect components and perform circuit tests. This may cause new DTCs to be set. Moving components and wiring during the test may also cause new concerns. The repair is complete if you cannot recreate the concern and no new concerns are noted September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

37 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW INSTRUCTOR NOTES Diagnostic Tests Quick Test QT1 Perform PCM Quick Test The PC/ED Quick Test directs you to retrieve all DTCs and then asks the question "Were any DTCs present?" If there are DTCs present, then select YES and proceed to the DTC Charts for further diagnosis. If no DTCs are present, then select NO and proceed to the symptom charts for further diagnosis. In either case, your selection leads you to charts that indicate the proper pinpoint test to start your diagnosis. Diagnosis and Testing September,

38 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE Diagnostic Tests Quick Test (Continued) EP2116-A/VF DTC Retrieval Using WDS After the concern has been verified, a visual inspection completed, and OASIS has been checked for documented failures relating to the concern, perform a Quick Test as directed by the PC/ED. Quick Test is divided into three specialized tests: Key On Engine Off (KOEO) On-Demand Self-Test Key On Engine Running (KOER) On-Demand Self-Test Continuous Memory Self-Test Quick Test checks the integrity and function of the Electronic EC System and outputs the test results when requested by a scan tool. Quick Test also provides a quick end check of the powertrain control system. It is performed at the start of each diagnostic procedure with all accessories off. Quick Test is also performed at the end of most pinpoint tests for verification of repair and to make sure no other faults were induced while repairing a previous fault. A system pass is displayed when no DTCs are output and a scan tool communication error does not exist. System pass means that hardware monitored by the PCM is functioning within normal operating limits. Only a system pass, DTC, or an incomplete OBDII drive cycle (P1000) is displayed September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

39 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW Diagnostic Tests Quick Test (Continued) Key On Engine Off (KOEO) On-Demand Self-Test The Key On Engine Off (KOEO) On-Demand Self-Test is a functional test of the powertrain control module performed on demand with the key on and the engine off. This test performs checks on certain sensor and actuator circuits. A fault must be present at the time of testing for the KOEO Self-Test to detect the fault. When a fault is detected, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is output on the data link at the end of the test when requested by a scan tool. Depressing the clutch pedal on manual transmission vehicles may be required to prevent false DTCs. Key On Engine Running (KOER) On-Demand Self-Test The Key On Engine Running (KOER) On-Demand Self-Test is a functional test of the powertrain control module performed on demand with the key on engine running and vehicle stopped. A check of certain inputs and outputs is made during operating conditions and at normal operating temperature. The brake pedal position, transmission control and power steering switch tests are part of the KOER On-Demand Self-Test and MUST be performed during this operation if applicable. These are described below. A fault must be present at the time of the KOER On-Demand Self-Test to detect the fault. When a fault is detected, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is output on the data link at the end of the test when requested by a scan tool. Brake Pedal Position Test This tests the ability of the Electronic EC system to detect a change of state in the stoplight switch. Brake pedal MUST briefly be applied and released on all vehicles equipped with brake pedal position input. This is done during the KOER On-Demand Self-Test. Transmission Control Switch Test This tests the ability of the Electronic EC system to detect a change of state in the transmission control switch (TCS). The switch MUST briefly be cycled on all vehicles equipped with TCS input. This is done during the KOER On-Demand Self-Test. Power Steering Pressure Test This tests the ability of the Electronic EC system to detect a change in power steering system fluid pressure. The steering wheel MUST briefly be turned at least 1/4 of a revolution on vehicles equipped with a power steering pressure (PSP) switch or sensor. This is done during the KOER On-Demand Self-Test. Diagnosis and Testing September,

40 DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW DAY ONE Diagnostic Tests Quick Test (Continued) Continuous Memory Self-Test Testing for Continuous Memory DTCs is a functional test of the powertrain control module performed under any condition (engine running or off) with the key on. Unlike the KOEO and KOER self-tests, which can only be activated on demand, the Continuous Memory Self-Test is always active. This test detects failures contributing to driveability or emission concerns. The vehicle may need to be driven or the OBDII Drive Cycle completed to allow the PCM to detect a fault. Refer to «Drive Cycles» for more information. When a fault is stored in memory, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is output on the data link at the end of the test when requested by a scan tool. Continuous Memory DTCs are especially valuable when diagnosing intermittent faults because a fault does not need to be present at the time of testing. There are two types of Continuous Memory DTCs. The first type is an emission related malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) code that illuminates the CHECK ENGINE or SERVICE ENGINE SOON indicator in the instrument cluster. The second is a non-emission related non-mil code that never illuminates the MIL. For emission related MIL codes, the PCM stores the DTC in continuous memory when a fault is detected for the first time. At this point, the DTC does not illuminate the MIL and is now considered a pending code. The purpose of pending codes is to assist in repair verification by reporting a pending DTC after one drive cycle. If the same fault is detected after the next drive cycle, the emission related MIL code illuminates the MIL. The MIL remains on even if the fault is intermittent. The MIL is extinguished if the fault is not present through three consecutive drive cycles or a PCM reset is performed. Also, an emission related pending MIL and non-emission related (non- MIL) code is erased after approximately vehicle warm up cycles or a PCM reset. Any scan tool that meets OBDII requirements can access Continuous Memory to retrieve emission related MIL DTCs. However, not all scan tools access pending and non-emission related (non-mil) DTCs in the same way September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

41 DAY ONE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS REVIEW Diagnostic Tests Parameter Identifier (PID) Monitor EP2117-A/VF Typical WDS DataLogger PID Display Parameter Identifiers are sensor output values displayed on a scan tool and are chosen based on the vehicle concern. During a guided diagnostic routine, PIDs are accessed that relate to a specific pinpoint test. The pinpoint test directs the technician to the specific PID(s) and tells the technician exactly what to look for, or how to manipulate them. Remember that a component not providing an expected value may be affected by another sensor s output (for example, an IAC value that is out of its expected range could be affected by the TP sensor s output).

45 DAY ONE IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Student Objective Use critical thinking skills and available resources to diagnose and test the Ignition System - Identify types of misfires - Explain the relationship of ignition patterns to diagnosis - Explain how to diagnose misfire concerns - Explain how to diagnose No Start concerns Content Ignition Concerns - Misfire - No Start Misfire Diagnosis - Power Balance - Spark Duration/Peak KV - Normal Duration Normal Peak KV - Short Duration High Peak KV - Long Duration Low Peak KV - COP Misfire Diagnosis - Power Balance - Live Display - COP Coil Stress Test - WDS Oscilloscope No-Start Diagnosis - Spark tester - Test light Diagnosis and Testing September,

46 IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Ignition Concerns 1 2 EP2200-A/VF Ignition System Diagnostic Tools 3 4 Item Description Item Description 1 WDS power balance display 3 Spark tester 2 WDS spark duration and peak KV display 4 Test light There are two types of ignition system concerns: Misfires and No Start conditions. Misfires can be caused by weak spark, no spark, incorrect air/fuel mixtures, or base engine problems. Another cause of misfire is a plugged tube in a port-fed EGR system (typical application is a 4.2L engine). If a tube, or tubes, in a port-fed EGR system become restricted, that cylinder (or cylinders) receives no EGR and the other cylinders receive all of the EGR, possibly causing a random misfire. A misfire at idle may not turn on the MIL because the catalyst temperature at idle may not exceed a level that would damage the catalyst. A No Start condition can be caused by a fault in the ignition system primary or secondary circuitry, a fuel system concern, or a base engine concern. Diagnostic Tools WDS - Self-Test (check for codes first) - Power Balance (identify the cylinder of concern) - Relative Compression (rule out a mechanical concern) - Fuel System Tests (Fuel Pressure/Leakdown, Relative Injector Flow) - Spark Duration/Peak KV - Oscilloscope (detailed signal analysis) Spark Tester Test Light 2-2 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

47 DAY ONE IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Misfires Profile Correction The misfire monitor is not active until the profile correction is learned. Profile correction software is used to learn and correct for mechanical inaccuracies in the crankshaft trigger wheel tooth spacing. Actual mechanical inaccuracies may not be visually detectable. The profile correction is learned during closed throttle, non-braking, de-fueled decelerations in the 60 to 40 mph range after exceeding 60 mph. This may have to be done up to three times for the profile correction to be learned. If the battery is disconnected or Keep Alive Memory is cleared, the profile correction has to be relearned to enable the misfire monitor. If the profile correction is not yet learned, the WDS monitor screen still indicates the Misfire Monitor has completed (misfire display is green), but does not pick up a misfire. You must look at the MP_LRN PID to determine if the Misfire Monitor is enabled (displays YES for enabled/no for disabled). NOTE: NGS refers to this PID as CKP_LWP. Type A misfire A type A misfire is a severe misfire that could result in overheating of the catalytic converter. It is counted over a continuous 200 revolution period. At the end of each evaluation period a total misfire rate and the misfire rate for each individual cylinder is computed. It is then compared to a calibrated parameter obtained from an engine speed/load table to determine if it is severe enough to cause catalyst damage. Once a type A misfire occurs, a DTC is stored and the MIL blinks once per second. If a type A misfire persists, it could cause over-temperature catalyst damage. The fuel injector to that cylinder may be shut off for a period. For any engine with six or more cylinders, up to two fuel injectors may be shut off at one time. For performance and safety reasons, the fuel shut off feature is not used on four cylinder engines. The MIL flashes on the first occurrence of a type A misfire. This is an exception to the two consecutive drive cycles rule. Type B misfire: A type B misfire is not severe enough to overheat the catalytic converter but could result in increased emission levels and is counted over a continuous 1000 revolution period. At the end of each evaluation period, a total misfire rate for the engine is computed. It is then compared to a calibrated parameter in the PCM to determine if the misfire rate is severe enough to cause emissions to exceed 1.5 times the standard. The DTC associated with multiple cylinder misfire for a type A or type B misfire is DTC P0300. The DTCs associated with an individual cylinder misfire for a type A or type B misfire are DTCs P P0310. Diagnosis and Testing September,

48 IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Misfire Diagnosis Power Balance EP2201-A/VF WDS Power Balance Test The WDS Power Balance Test identifies a problem with the power contribution of a cylinder when the engine is running between 500 rpm and a calibrated maximum RPM. When the pre-calibrated out of range rpm is reached, the RPM bar graph turns yellow indicating the data retrieved from the DCL may not be reliable. The RPM displayed at the bottom of the screen is the average RPM of all cylinders in a complete engine cycle. A drop in RPM identified in one or more cylinders may be caused by a fault in the ignition system, fuel system, or the cylinder s relative compression. Not all RPM drops are plotted during a live display. If an RPM drop is felt but not displayed, an event capture should be made. During playback, all of the RPM drops are displayed. The button on the Red Roving Probe activates the capture feature when connected to port 1. This allows for convenient road test capture. 2-4 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

49 DAY ONE IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Misfire Diagnosis Spark Duration/Peak KV Normal Duration Normal Peak KV EP2202-A/VF WDS Display of Normal Duration/Peak KV The WDS Spark Duration/Peak KV Test is used to determine which cylinder has a fault. Typically, normal spark duration patterns from all cylinders are relatively close to the same. Spark duration and peak KV values on each cylinder vary with each plug firing due to the dynamic nature of the combustion chamber and the energy required to ignite the air/fuel mixture. A tight pattern in a cylinder indicates firing outside of the combustion chamber where the spark is not subject to air/fuel mixture, compression pressures, etc. Diagnosis and Testing September,

50 IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Misfire Diagnosis Spark Duration/Peak KV Short Duration High Peak KV EP2203-A/VF WDS Display of Short Duration High Peak KV This pattern is typical of an open in the secondary (higher than normal resistance) such as a wide spark plug gap, damaged spark plug, open in the secondary wire or lean air/fuel mixture. 2-6 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

51 DAY ONE IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Misfire Diagnosis Spark Duration/Peak KV Long Duration Low Peak KV EP2204-A/VF WDS Display of Long Duration Low Peak KV This pattern is typical of lower than normal resistance such as a short in the secondary, a fouled spark plug, a secondary wire arcing to ground, a narrow spark plug gap, or a rich air/fuel mixture. Diagnosis and Testing September,

52 IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE COP Misfire Diagnosis Power Balance Test Power Balance Test Relative Compression Test If there is no DTC and the customer complaint is an engine miss, the WDS Power Balance test will help you identify the cylinder with the miss. To access this test, select the Toolbox icon, Powertrain, and Power Balance. If the engine does not miss at idle (in the service bay), brake torque the engine. This extra loading should reproduce the miss. If not, perform a WDS Relative Compression test to rule out mechanical problems before going on a road test. Some misses may be very intermittent so be patient and concentrate on load conditions. Note: Perform fuel system testing (Fuel Pressure/Leakdown and Injector Flow tests) if you suspect a fuel problem. 2-8 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

53 DAY ONE IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING COP Misfire Diagnosis Live Display Low Duration Values High Peak KV When performing an ignition system test, attach the WDS COP ignition clips to the suspect coil (red probe) and a known good coil (black probe). Look for spark duration (DUR) and kilovolt (KV) values that stand out. The concern is ignition related if the values displayed on the red probe (suspect cylinder) vary greatly from the values displayed on the black probe (known good cylinder). Use the WDS oscilloscope with the COP kit to determine if a faulty spark plug or a faulty COP coil causes the concern. If the WDS oscilloscope is not available, swap the coil of the misfiring cylinder with the coil of any other cylinder. The coil is faulty if the problem moves with the coil. The spark plug is the faulty component if the problem stays with the cylinder. Diagnosis and Testing September,

54 IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE COP Misfire Diagnosis COP Coil Stress Test COP Coil Test Setup Warning! Secondary ignition voltages are very high. Keep hands and tools away from the output of the coil. Perform a COP Coil Stress Test. With the engine off: Remove the suspect coil from the cylinder well and position it so it cannot spark to any other surface. Leave the harness connector and the WDS COP clip attached to the coil. - Route the WDS COP clip and cable away from the coils to avoid noise interference. Disconnect the fuel injector harness connector to prevent the delivery of raw fuel to the cylinder. Select Channel 3 on the WDS Oscilloscope tool. - Select "Auto" - Select "COP_STRESS_TEST_RED" Start the engine. - Shut the engine off IMMEDIATELY if the coil is sparking to other surfaces. - Readjust coil to prevent sparking to other surfaces and re-start the engine. Touch the "Red Man" icon to start oscilloscope operation September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

Notice the difference between these waveforms and the good waveform on the previous page. Misfires can sometimes be difficult to diagnose, making the WDS Oscilloscope an important tool September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

57 DAY ONE IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING No Start Condition Diagnosis EP2205-A/VF Spark Tester and Test Lamp A quick and easy check to determine if the no-start condition is a result of an ignition system fault is to use a spark tester and test lamp. The spark tester is used to see if there is sufficient spark to fire the spark plug. If sufficient spark is present on all cylinders, the fault lies somewhere in the air/fuel system or there is a base engine concern. If spark is not present, the fault lies somewhere in the ignition system. The test lamp is used to see if there is a CD (coil driver) signal present from the PCM to the ignition coil(s) while the engine is cranking. Diagnosis and Testing September,

The types of fuel delivery systems include: Return-type where excess fuel not used by the engine is returned to the fuel tank. Returnless-type where fuel is delivered to the fuel supply manifold with no engine-heated fuel returned to the tank. This helps to lower fuel tank temperatures and reduce evaporative emissions. - Mechanical Returnless - Electronic Returnless 3-2 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

65 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Delivery System Return-type Fuel System EP2301-A/VF Typical Return-type Fuel System Item Description Item Description 1 CKP signal 6 Schrader valve 2 Powertrain Control Module (PCM) 7 Fuel pressure regulator 3 Fuel pump relay 8 Pulse damper 4 Inertia Fuel Shut-off (IFS) switch 9 Fuel pump module 5 Fuel injector The return-type fuel system uses an electric fuel pump with a mechanical regulator on the fuel supply manifold. Excess fuel not used by the engine is returned to the fuel tank. A pressure test point (Schrader valve) is located on the fuel supply manifold. This is used to connect the WDS or other diagnostic tools when measuring fuel pressure. Diagnosis and Testing September,

66 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Delivery System Mechanical Returnless Fuel System B A EP2302-A/VF Typical Mechanical Returnless-type Fuel System The mechanical returnless fuel system uses an electric pump. The fuel pressure in this system is regulated mechanically by an in-tank pressure regulator (A). A Schrader valve (B) is used as a pressure test point is located on the fuel supply manifold. This is used to connect the WDS or other diagnostic tools when measuring fuel pressure. 3-Port Fuel Filter EP2303-A/VF Fuel filter with quick-connect fittings Some mechanical returnless fuel systems now use a three-port fuel filter. 1: Fuel pickup 2: Fuel delivery to engine 3: Fuel returned to tank 3-4 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

67 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Delivery System Electronic Returnless Fuel System EP1139-A/VF EP2304-A/VF Typical Electronic Returnless-type Fuel System Item Description Item Description 1 Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor 3 Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) 2 Engine Fuel Temperature (EFT) sensor (not on all vehicles) 4 Parallel Pressure Relief Valve (PPRV) The electronic returnless fuel delivery system uses an electric pump. Fuel pressure in this system is controlled electronically by varying the fuel pump speed. The PCM commands a duty cycle to the Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM), which modulates the voltage to the fuel pump to achieve the proper fuel system pressure. The duty cycle is based on load and engine fuel temperature, with feedback from the Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor. Engine fuel temperature may be an inferred value or input from an engine fuel temperature sensor (example: 98 ZX2). The Parallel Pressure Relief Valve (PPRV) combines the function of a fuel pump outlet check valve and a relief valve. It relieves excess pressure, through the fuel pump, created by hot expanding fuel in the fuel supply manifold during engine off conditions. It takes 1 psi of pressure to allow fuel to flow to the fuel rail. When the engine is off, fuel is returned to the tank if the pressure exceeds 50 psi. A pressure test point (Schrader valve) may be located on the fuel supply manifold to allow the connection of diagnostic tools. On vehicles without the Schrader valve (example: 2001 Focus 2.0L Zetec engine), fuel pressure may be monitored by accessing the FP (fuel pressure) PID. Diagnosis and Testing September,

68 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Delivery System Fuel Pressure and Leakdown Test EP2305-A/VF Fuel Pump Running Pressure Test Fuel Pressure and Leakdown Test This test first checks the vehicle fuel system's ability to supply and maintain adequate system pressure. The test is comprised of two distinct phases: A pump running pressure test A pump off leakdown pressure test If the fuel system passes these tests, you are also able to initiate an engine running test and initiate the relative injector flow test. The engine running test displays the continuously updated measured fuel system pressure. 3-6 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

69 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Delivery System Fuel Pressure and Leakdown Test (continued) EP2306-A/VF Fuel Pump OFF Leakdown Pressure Test Possible Causes of Fuel System Faults: No fuel pressure may be caused by: - no fuel, external fuel system leaks, blocked, kinked, or crushed fuel lines, faulty fuel pump/or fuel pump check valve, a fuel pump circuit fault, corrosion, or loose wires. Low fuel pressure may be caused by: - external fuel system leaks, blocked, kinked or crushed fuel lines, faulty fuel pressure regulator, faulty fuel pump/or fuel pump check valve. High fuel pressure may be caused by: - blocked, kinked, or crushed fuel return line, faulty fuel pressure regulator, vacuum leak (especially at the connections), faulty PCM, FPDM, or associated circuitry. NOTE: A leak in the vacuum hose to the fuel pressure regulator causes the fuel rail pressure to rise. Types of fuel system leaks: - external fuel system leaks, leaking fuel rail, fuel injector(s) signal shorted to ground, leaking injector, faulty fuel pressure regulator. Diagnosis and Testing September,

70 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Control EP2307-A/VF Fuel Control The amount of fuel to be delivered by the injector is determined by the fuel control system. Fuel control depends on how much air enters the engine (air mass), the desired air/fuel ratio for the engine operating conditions, how much fuel is needed to achieve the desired air/fuel ratio (fuel mass), and the injector pulse width required to deliver the correct amount of fuel to the proper cylinder. 3-8 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

71 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Control Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) O2 1 O2 O2 O2 2 O2 O2 O2 O2 O O2 O2 O2 O2 3 O2 O2 O2 O2 O2 O2 HO2S EP2308-A/VF Item Description Item Description 1 Protective shield 3 Air side 2 Zirconium dioxide 4 Tip of sensor (located in exhaust) The HO2S is used to measure the amount of oxygen in the exhaust stream. Part of the sensor is exposed to the outside air as a reference and the tip of the sensor is exposed to the exhaust gases. When the HO2S reaches operating temperature, voltage is generated based on the difference between oxygen content at the tip compared to the outside air. The greater the oxygen content in the exhaust stream, the lower the output voltage. A common cause of HO2S malfunction is contamination. When the tip becomes contaminated, the sensor can no longer accurately measure the oxygen content in the exhaust and generates a lower voltage, indicating a lean condition. When you have a contaminated HO2S, be sure to check the following items as potential sources of HO2S contamination: Use of unapproved silicon sealers Lead contaminated fuel Fuel contaminated by silicon additives Short drive cycles in cold weather Excessive oil burning Use of unapproved cleaning agents Glycol (antifreeze) leaking internally in the engine An exhaust leak in the area around the HO2S causes air to dilute the exhaust stream. When the HO2S compares the exhaust gas to the outside air, it interprets high oxygen content and generates a lower voltage, indicating a lean condition. When the HO2S no longer switches around stoichiometric or has a slow response, Either DTC P HO2S Sensor Circuit Slow Response (HO2S-11) or P HO2S Sensor Circuit Slow Response (HO2S-21) sets. Diagnosis and Testing September,

72 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Control MAF/BARO A EP2309-A/VF Typical MAF Sensor A common cause of MAF failure is contamination. When the MAF becomes contaminated, the hot wire (A) becomes insulated. Contamination on the wire prevents passing air from cooling the wire. The result is that more air enters the engine than the MAF indicates to the PCM. The PCM adjusts the fuel injector pulse width to match the amount of air the MAF indicates. If more air is entering the engine than the MAF indicates, the PCM delivers less fuel than is needed, resulting in a lean condition. If vehicle is driven at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) or high loads, the fuel system normally goes open loop rich to provide maximum power. If the MAF sensor is contaminated, the fuel system is actually lean because of underestimated airflow. During open loop fuel operation, the vehicle applies Long Term Fuel Trim corrections that have been learned during closed loop operation. These corrections are often lean corrections learned at lower airflows. A consistent rich or lean condition can be identified by looking at the fuel trim PIDs (primarily LONGFT). MAF sensors can be contaminated from a variety of sources such as dirt, silicon, spider webs, potting compound from the sensor itself, etc. Symptoms of MAF contamination include a lack of power, spark knock/detonation, buck/jerk, hesitation/surge on acceleration, and the MIL lamp ON. The following DTCs can be generated because of a contaminated MAF sensor: P0171 (Lean Bank 1) P0174 (Lean Bank 2) P1130, P1131, P1132 (HO2S11 lack of switching Bank 1) P1150, P1151, P1152 (HO2S21 lack of switching Bank 2) 3-10 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

73 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Control MAF/BARO (continued) Barometric Pressure (in. HG.) Barometric Pressure (kpa) BARO/MAP PID (Hz) Altitude above sea level (ft) , , , , , , , , , , , (Sea Level) Barometric Pressure Reference Chart One of the indicators for diagnosing a contaminated MAF sensor is barometric pressure. Barometric pressure (BARO) is inferred by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software at part-throttle and WOT (there is no actual BARO sensor on MAF-equipped vehicles, except for the 3.8L supercharged engine). At high air flows, a contaminated MAF sensor underestimates air flow coming into the engine. The PCM infers the vehicle is operating at a higher altitude. Look at the BARO PID. Refer to the Barometric Pressure Reference Chart above. At sea level, BARO should read about Hz (30 in. Hg.). As a reference, Denver, Colorado at 1524 meters (5000 ft.) altitude should be about 144 Hz (25 in. Hg.). Normal learned BARO variability is up to +/-6 Hz (+/-2 in. Hg.). If BARO indicates a higher altitude than you are at (7 or more Hz lower than expected), the MAF may be contaminated. You should keep in mind that local weather conditions (high and low pressure areas) change the local barometric pressure (+/- 3 Hz, +/-1 in. Hg.). The BARO value is updated only when the vehicle is at high throttle openings. The BARO reading is stored in Keep Alive Memory (KAM) after it is updated. Diagnosis and Testing September,

74 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Control Open Loop Operation Although stoichiometric is considered the ideal air/fuel ratio, a stoichiometric ratio is not desired in many operating conditions. When operating conditions require an air/fuel ratio other than stoichiometric, or the oxygen sensors are not at operating temperature, the fuel system is commanded to open loop mode. When the engine is operating in open loop, the PCM ignores oxygen sensor input and commands an air/fuel ratio that is typically richer than stoichiometric. Once the desired air/fuel ratio and the air mass are determined, the PCM calculates the appropriate injector pulse width. The PCM commands open loop operation under the following conditions: During cold engine startup, the oxygen sensor does not produce an accurate signal because it has not reached operating temperature. The PCM is programmed to wait a certain amount of time after starting before attempting to go to closed loop operation. During warm-up operation, air/fuel ratio is commanded rich to aid in engine and catalytic converter warm-up. During high load or wide-open throttle conditions, the air/fuel ratio is commanded rich for maximum power. During catalyst overtemp protection, the air/fuel ratio is commanded rich because a richer air/fuel ratio burns cooler. This lowers the catalyst temperature to prevent damage September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

75 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Control Closed Loop Operation HO2S Voltage and FUELPW1 PIDs During Closed Loop Once the oxygen sensor has reached operating temperature and open loop conditions are not demanded, the PCM commands a stoichiometric air/fuel ratio and the engine operates in closed loop. In closed loop operation, the PCM calculates air mass to determine injector pulse width. Feedback from the oxygen sensor indicates if the mixture is rich or lean. The PCM uses this information to make constant adjustments to the commanded injector pulse width to achieve a stoichiometric air/fuel ratio. Diagnosis and Testing January,

77 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Control Fuel System Monitor 2 EP2311-A/VF Fuel System Item Description Item Description 1 2 The HO2S provides the PCM with feedback indicating air/fuel ratio A correction factor is added to the fuel injector pulse width calculation based on the Long and Short Term Fuel Trims 3 4 When air/fuel ratio exceeds a calibrated limit and the fuel trims can no longer compensate, the Fuel System Monitor sets a DTC The MIL is activated after a fault is detected on two consecutive drive cycles The purpose of the fuel system monitor is to detect deterioration or failures of components that cause emissions to exceed 1.5 times the standard. As components age over the life of the vehicle, the adaptive fuel strategy learns deviations from the stoichiometric air/fuel ratio while running in closed loop. These learned corrections are stored in Keep Alive Memory as long term fuel trim corrections. The fuel system monitor uses long and short term fuel trim corrections to determine when the fuel system has deteriorated beyond its ability to maintain the correct air/fuel ratio. If components change beyond normal limits or if a malfunction occurs, the long term fuel trim values reach a calibrated rich or lean limit. When this occurs, the adaptive fuel strategy is no longer allowed to compensate. Long term fuel trim corrections at their limit plus a calibrated deviation in short term fuel trim indicate a rich or lean system malfunction. Input from the ECT or CHT, IAT, and MAF sensors is required to activate the fuel trim system, which in turn activates the Fuel System Monitor. Additional conditions required to operate the Fuel System Monitor are engine RPM between idle and 4000, system in closed loop, and EVAP duty cycle at 0%. Diagnosis and Testing September,

78 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Control Normal Fuel Trim Operation EP2312-A/VF How Short Term and Long Term Fuel Trims are Used Item Description 1 The oxygen sensor indicates a rich condition 2 SHRTFT responds to reduce the amount of fuel delivered until the oxygen sensor starts switching again 3 LONGFT keeps learning negative corrections until SHRTFT returns to averaging around 0% Short Term Fuel Trim During closed loop operation, short term fuel trim values are calculated by the PCM using oxygen sensor inputs in order to maintain a stoichiometric air/fuel ratio. The PCM is constantly adjusting the short term fuel trim, which causes the oxygen sensor voltage to switch from rich to lean around the stoichiometric point. As long as the short term fuel trim is able to cause the oxygen sensor voltage to switch, a stoichiometric air/fuel ratio is maintained. Short term fuel trim operates within pre-calibrated limits. If short term fuel trim is not able to cause the oxygen sensor to switch, a DTC is set January, 2006 Diagnosis and Testing

79 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Control Normal Fuel Trim Operation (continued) Long Term Fuel Trim As components of the fuel, air, or engine systems age or otherwise change over the life of the vehicle, the PCM learns to adapt fuel control. This is known as adaptive fuel strategy. Corrections are only learned during closed loop operation, and are stored in the PCM as long term fuel trim values. Long term fuel trim values are only learned when short term fuel trim corrections are able to cause the oxygen sensor to switch. If the short term fuel trim average remains above or below zero percent, the PCM learns to use a new long term fuel trim value, which allows the short term fuel trim to return to an average value near zero percent. There is a different long term fuel trim value stored for various RPM and load operating conditions. Long term fuel trim values are displayed on a scan tool as a percentage of fuel added or subtracted. Long term fuel trim also operates within pre-calibrated limits. When those limits are exceeded, a DTC is set. Diagnosis and Testing September,

80 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Control Abnormal Fuel Trim (1 Bank) EP2313-A/VF Abnormal Fuel Trim (1 Bank) Looking at fuel trims when diagnosing a concern may help you identify the possible fault. An abnormal fuel trim on only one bank indicates a possible fault in the coil, a spark plug, a secondary wire, an injector, a circuitry problem (to injector or coil), and on rare occasions an intake leak (affecting only one bank). Whenever a fuel injector or fuel pressure regulator is replaced, Keep Alive Memory (KAM) should be cleared. This is necessary so the PCM does not use the previously learned fuel trim values January, 2006 Diagnosis and Testing

81 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Control Abnormal Fuel Trim (Both Banks) EP2314-A/VF Abnormal Fuel Trim (Both Banks) Abnormal fuel trims on both banks indicate a fault that affects the entire engine, such as a vacuum leak, an EGR concern, low fuel pressure, high fuel pressure, MAF sensor fault, or an air intake leak. Diagnosis and Testing January,

82 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Control Injector Flow Test EP2315-A/VF Relative Injector Flow Test The data for the relative injector flow test is displayed in cylinder firing order from left to right. Below the cylinder number is the elapsed time (in milliseconds) for the required pressure drop to occur when the injector is energized. The bar graph represents a comparison of all the flow data. Ideally, the bars should be relatively even and centered between the pass/fail markers. When a value falls outside the pass/fail limit, the bar is shaded darker than the others. Low injector flow (LF) occurs if the pressure drop for an injector takes significantly longer than the others. High injector flow (HF) occurs if the pressure drop for an injector is significantly faster than the others. No injector flow (NF) occurs if no pressure drop is detected when the injector is energized. Invalid injector data (ID) occurs when a pressure drop occurs before the injector is energized. If one or more injectors appear high or low on the bar graph, the injector(s) is not necessarily faulty. For example, if all but one injector is defective, the defective injectors appear normal, while the good injector has a relatively faster flow time, possibly causing it to appear out of spec September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

83 DAY ONE FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING Fuel Control Injector Flow Test (continued) Possible causes of low injector flow: Air in fuel system or in test equipment Contaminated fuel system causing obstructed injector(s) Obstructed or dirty fuel injector(s) Leaking injector Faulty injector Possible causes of high injector flow: Improper injector(s) for vehicle application installed Obstructed or dirty fuel injector(s) Possible causes of no injector flow: Air in fuel system or in test equipment Faulty injector Obstructed or dirty fuel injector(s) Faulty fuel injector circuit NOTE: No injector flow for all injectors is most likely caused by air in the fuel system but also may be caused by the fuel pump running continuously during the test or a loss of the power feed to all injectors. Possible causes of invalid injector data: Most likely an intermittent condition because a pressure and leakdown check is performed at the beginning of the flow test Leaking injector Faulty fuel pressure regulator Faulty fuel pump/or fuel pump check valve NOTE: An injector that remains open after being flow tested may show the next tested injector as Invalid Data (ID). NOTE: The engine must be run after each injector flow test to clear fuel from the combustion chamber. Diagnosis and Testing September,

84 FUEL SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS & TESTING DAY ONE Fuel Economy Test EP2316-A/VF Fuel Economy Test Fuel economy is based on the Vehicle Speed Signal (VSS) and the amount of fuel used. The amount of fuel is calculated from the MAF. When testing for fuel economy, it is critical that the MAF is accurate. To help you determine if the MAF is accurate, verify that the BARO PID is displaying the correct value for your altitude. If BARO indicates an incorrect altitude (7 or more Hz lower than expected), you may have a contaminated MAF sensor September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

The PCM controls current through the injector coil by opening and closing the ground side circuit. When energized the magnetic field pulls a pintle valve off its seat to spray pressurized fuel into the intake manifold. You should always make sure to use the proper injector for the application. The color of the injector connector indicates the flow rate. Similar connector colors may have different part numbers and different flow rates. Be sure to check application. The injector is the Deposit Resistant Injection (DRI) type and does not have to be cleaned (although it is not harmful to clean the injector). Never apply battery positive voltage (B+) directly to the fuel injector electrical connector terminals. The fuel injector may be internally damaged in a matter of seconds. The fuel injectors can be flow checked and they should be replaced if they are found outside of specification. When replacing fuel injectors, replace the O-rings with ones that are made of special fuel-resistant material. The use of ordinary O-rings can cause the fuel system to leak.

110 AIR INLET DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO IAC Valve EP1112-A/VF Typical IAC Valve IAC Valve The IAC valve (part of throttle body assembly) provides a travel path for air when the throttle plate is closed to maintain the recommended idle speed. This compensates for any load placed on the engine such as air conditioning or power steering. During cruise, the IAC is used to compensate for the additional air needed during deceleration, rapid acceleration, and during transmission shifts. This allows for a smooth transition in engine torque before and after the shift. On applications with air-assisted injectors, the IAC valve also supplies a small amount of air into the path of the fuel injectors. The jet of air causes an increase in fuel atomization at low speed and light load conditions. 5-2 April, 2002 Diagnosis and Testing

111 DAY TWO AIR INLET DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING IAC Valve IAC Diagnosis & Testing A EP2500-A/VF WDS Output State Control An IAC fault can cause a stall at idle or a rough idle concern. A malfunctioning IAC valve does not necessarily set a code because the PCM cannot detect a mechanical fault. The easiest way to determine if there is an IAC concern is to unplug the IAC valve harness connector with the engine idling at operating temperature. If there is no idle drop and the initial concern was a high idle, the concern is probably a vacuum leak or a PCV fault. If there is no idle drop and the initial concern was a low idle, the concern is probably an IAC fault. Test the operation of the IAC valve by accessing the Output Test Mode (A). Increase and decrease the IAC valve opening and check for appropriate changes in engine RPM. The IAC valve has an internal clamping diode on some applications. Use a low resistance self-powered test lamp to test the diode. Diagnosis and Testing April,

The IMTV system is designed to provide increased intake airflow to improve torque and performance. The overall quantity of air metered to the engine is controlled by the throttle body. A malfunction in the IMTV system affects engine performance. There is no monitor input to the PCM to indicate shutter position since a failure of this system does not affect emissions. 5-6 April, 2002 Diagnosis and Testing

115 DAY TWO AIR INLET DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Controlled Air Inlet Systems Intake Manifold Tuning Valve (IMTV) System (continued) Since there is no monitor input to the PCM to indicate shutter position, a mechanical failure such as a stuck shutter does not set a code or illuminate the MIL. If you suspect a malfunction of the IMTV system, the following checks may help you isolate the fault. Be sure to refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedure. Make sure the harness is intact and the connector is firmly in place. Check the PCM driver command. - Access the IMTV PID (KOER). - Increase engine speed slowly to about 4000 rpm while observing IMTV PID. Note: The vehicle must be driven if rev limiter does not allow 3500 rpm in the bay. The PID IMTV PID should read 100% then drop to 50% while rpm goes above Check all associated wiring for shorts and opens. Check the IMTV shutter for damage. - Remove the IMT Valve. - Visually inspect the IMT valve shutter for damage. - Rotate the shutter by hand. The shutter should rotate freely. Check the IMT valve actuator for coil damage. - Reconnect the IMT valve harness connector. - Key on, engine off. - Access the Output Test Mode (OTM). - Command all outputs on. The IMT valve shutter should rotate when all outputs are commanding on. Diagnosis and Testing April,

The IMRC system is designed to provide increased intake airflow to improve torque, emissions and performance. The overall quantity of air metered to the engine is controlled by the throttle body. A malfunction in the IMRC system affects engine performance and emissions. The motorized actuator houses an internal switch or switches, depending on the application, to provide feedback to the PCM indicating cable and butterfly valve plate position. All IMRC systems provide feedback to the PCM, though some sense closed position only. All IMRC systems are designed to affect the in-cylinder motion of the intake charge. Some IMRC systems affect in-cylinder motion and intake tuning. In-cylinder motion affects burn rate and performance while intake tuning affects performance only.

117 DAY TWO AIR INLET DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Controlled Air Inlet Systems Intake Manifold Runner Control (IMRC) System (continued) If you suspect a malfunction of the IMRC system, the following checks may help you isolate the fault. Be sure to refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedure. DTCs P1516, P1517, P1518, P1519, P1520, P1537, P1538 Make sure that the harness is intact and the connector is firmly in place. Check for binding or improper routing of cable or linkage. - The IMRC return springs are strong. Make sure the return springs operate properly and plates open and close fully. Feel for sticking and binding. Perform IMRC Functional Test. - Access Output Test Mode (OTM). - Turn all outputs on. WARNING: KEEP FINGERS CLEAR OF LEVER/CABLE MECHANISM. When IMRC is commanded on, lever(s) should rotate to full-open position. At least one of the levers should contact the wide open stop; the other may be slightly off the wide open stop. For Focus/Escort and 2.3L Ranger, listen for system to actuate. Check all associated wiring for shorts and opens. Verify Driver Circuit Function. Access Output Test Mode (OTM). Place a test lamp between VPWR and the IMRC/IMSC signal circuit at the IMRC/IMSC actuator harness connector. Turn all outputs on. The test lamp should cycle from off to on.

118 AIR INLET DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Intake Manifold Swirl Control (IMSC) System EP2503-A/VF IMSC System Item Item 1 The TP sensor, CHT, and CKP signals are used to determine activation of the IMSC system. 2 The PCM uses this information to control the electric solenoid. 3 The PCM energizes the solenoid with the key on engine running, vacuum is then applied to the actuator to pull the butterfly plates closed. The IMSC system is a type of IMRC system and is designed to provide increased intake airflow to improve torque, emissions and performance. The overall quantity of air metered to the engine is controlled by the throttle body. A malfunction in the IMSC system affects engine performance and emissions. The PCM senses valve plate position on all IMRC/IMSC systems. Some IMSC systems sense closed position only. The IMSC system may have an IMRC position sensor that signals the PCM. The PCM uses this position information to verify the valve is in the commanded position and to make changes to ignition spark advance. The IMSC system is designed to affect in-cylinder motion and has little affect on intake tuning. In-cylinder motion affects burn rate and performance while intake tuning affects performance only. The IMRC is tested in the same manner as the IMSC. WARNING: SUBSTANTIAL OPENING AND CLOSING TORQUE IS APPLIED BY THIS SYSTEM.

120 PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM DAY TWO Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) Basic PATS Basic PATS Item Description Item Description 1 Transceiver 5 Data link connector 2 Ignition key 6 Starter motor 3 Theft indicator 7 PATS module 4 PCM The basic PATS has a module that is external from the PCM. The PATS module either could be a stand-alone type or incorporated within the instrument cluster. When the ignition key is placed in the RUN position, the PATS module powers up the ignition key through the transceiver. The ignition key then transmits a code through the transceiver back to the PATS module. If the key code is correct, then the PATS module sends a known key (enable) message to the PCM. The PCM then tries to identify the PATS module s ID number and responds back to the PATS module to enable or disable the engine. The theft indicator on the instrument panel flashes every two seconds with the ignition key in the OFF position as a visual theft deterrent. When the ignition key is placed in the RUN or START position, the theft indicator illuminates for three seconds and then goes out if the system is OK. If a fault is detected, then the theft indicator illuminates briefly, starts to flash rapidly or stays on solid for one minute, and finally flashes a fault code ten times. 6-2 April, 2002 Diagnosis and Testing

121 DAY TWO PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM Passive Anti-Theft System Integrated Passive Anti-Theft System (IPATS) IPATS Integrated in the PCM Item Description Item Description 1 Transceiver 4 Data link connector 2 Ignition key 5 Starter motor 3 Theft indicator 6 PCM The IPATS has the PATS function integrated in the PCM. When the ignition key is placed in the RUN position, the PCM powers up the ignition key through the transceiver. The ignition key sends a code to the transceiver, which sends the code to the PCM. The PCM checks the key code against a known key code and enables or disables the engine. The theft indicator, in the instrument cluster, flashes every two seconds with the ignition key in the OFF position as a visual theft deterrent. When the ignition key is placed in the RUN or START position, the theft indicator illuminates for three seconds and then goes out if the system is OK. If a fault is detected, then the theft indicator illuminates briefly, starts to flash rapidly or stays on solid for one minute, and finally flashes a fault code ten times. Diagnosis and Testing April,

122 PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM DAY TWO Engine Performance Concerns Unrelated to PATS The following conditions are NOT attributable to the PATS: No communication with the PCM. - The PCM always communicates on the diagnostic link regardless of theft status. The engine runs poorly or poor fuel economy. - The PATS either allows the engine to run or not run. The engine stalls while driving. - Once the engine runs for one second, PATS CANNOT disable the engine. The alarm goes off. - PATS is completely separate from the vehicle alarm system. Remote entry/keyless entry problems. - PATS is not related to the remote entry/keyless entry system. No crank problems on vehicles without the starter disable function. PATS theft indicator flashing every two seconds with the ignition key in the OFF position. - Normal operation. 6-4 April, 2002 Diagnosis and Testing

123 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Student Objective Use critical thinking skills and available resources to diagnose and test the Emissions System. - Explain conditions and tests related to diagnosing specific emission systems, including PCV, EGR, CAT, and EVAP. Content Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Catalysts - Mode 6 Data Evaporative Emission Systems (EVAP) - Output State Control - EVAP Diagnostics Diagnosis and Testing September,

124 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) A EP2700-A/VF EP1042 -A/VF Typical PCV System The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system (A) vents the vapors from the crankcase and delivers them to the engine intake manifold, where they mix with the intake air for combustion. The amount and content of vapors purged from the crankcase affects the fuel system. If a condition occurs that results in high fuel content in the vapor, the oxygen sensor indicates a rich condition and short term fuel trim and long term fuel trim goes negative to compensate. On some applications (beginning in the 2001 model year), the PCV valve may be installed into the rocker cover using a quarter-turn cam-lock design with high retention force molded plastic lines from the PCV valve to the intake manifold to prevent accidental disconnection. Currently, Ford uses heated (water or electric) and non-heated PCV valves. On vehicles that are equipped with an electrically heated PCV valve, the thermal harness only provides electrical continuity when the temperature is less than 40 F (5 C) +/- 7 F (+/- 4 C). 7-2 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

125 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) Diagnosis and Testing If the customer s complaint is poor fuel economy, high idle, engine stall, or no start, you should check the PCV system for a malfunction. Keep in mind that beginning with the 2001 model year, disconnecting the PCV on vehicles with the PCV monitor causes an immediate engine stall or the engine is not allowed to restart. Refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedures. Verify the proper PCV valve is securely installed. Check for a stuck PCV valve. - Verify the PCV valve is clean. - Shake the PCV valve. The PCV valve should rattle when shaken. Plug the PCV valve. RPM should drop. PCV System Check. - Start the engine and bring to normal operating temperature. - Disconnect the closure (fresh air) hose from the remote air cleaner or air outlet tube. - Place a stiff piece of paper over the hose end. Wait one minute. The vacuum should hold the paper in place. If not, check for vacuum leaks/obstruction in the PCV system (such as oil cap, PCV valve, hoses, cut grommets, valve cover bolt torque/gasket leak). Diagnosis and Testing September,

126 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO NOTES 7-4 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

127 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) A EP2701-A/VF EGR system EP1063-A/VF The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system (A) is used to lower combustion temperature to reduce NOx emissions. Pressure Feedback EGR (PFE) The Pressure Feedback EGR (PFE) sensor measures EGR flow across a control orifice in the exhaust system. To determine flow, the PCM calculates exhaust pressure on one side of the orifice and measures pressure on the EGR valve side of the orifice. Differential Pressure Feedback EGR (DPFE) The Differential Pressure Feedback EGR (DPFE) sensor operates just as the PFE sensor, however it measures pressures on both sides of the orifice. The addition of an exhaust side measurement improves the accuracy of the EGR flow measurement. EGR System Module (ESM) The ESM EGR system is an updated DPFE EGR system. It functions in the same manner as the conventional DPFE system; however, the various system components have been integrated into a single component called the EGR System Module (ESM). The flange of the valve portion of the ESM bolts directly to the intake manifold, using a metal gasket to form the measuring orifice. By relocating the EGR orifice from the exhaust side to the intake side of the EGR valve, the downstream pressure signal measures manifold absolute pressure (MAP). The system provides the PCM with a differential DPFE signal, identical to a traditional DPFE system. Electric (Stepper Motor) EGR System The stepper motor EGR valve is electronically controlled by the PCM. The PCM sends a signal that extends or retracts the pintle valve and then the EGR valve sends a return signal back to the PCM to indicate valve position. Engine coolant is circulated through the EGR valve to cool the assembly coolant and extend the durability of the electric motor. The symptoms of a malfunctioning EGR system include rough idle, poor performance, and MIL ON. Diagnosis and Testing September,

128 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Diagnosis and Testing EP2702-A/VF Differential Pressure Feedback EGR System Monitor The Differential Pressure Feedback EGR System Monitor is an on-board strategy designed to test the integrity and flow characteristics of the EGR system. The monitor is activated during EGR system operation and after certain engine conditions are satisfied. Input from the ECT, CHT, IAT, TP and CKP sensors is required to activate the EGR System Monitor. Once activated, the EGR System Monitor performs the tests described below during the engine modes and conditions indicated. Some of the EGR System Monitor tests are also performed during the KOER self-test. The Differential Pressure Feedback EGR (DPFE) sensor and circuit are continuously tested for opens and shorts. - The DTCs associated with this test are DTCs P0405, P0406, P1400, and P1401. The EGR vacuum regulator solenoid is continuously tested for opens and shorts. - The DTCs associated with this test are DTCs P0403 and P1409. The test for a stuck open EGR valve or EGR flow at idle is continuously performed whenever at idle (TP sensor indicating closed throttle). - The EGR stuck open check becomes enabled when the EVR duty cycle is at 0 percent and the engine is at idle. - The DTC associated with this test is DTC P0402. The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor upstream hose is tested once per drive cycle for disconnect and plugging. - The DTC associated with this test is DTC P1405. The EGR flow rate test is performed during a steady state when engine speed and load are moderate and EGR vacuum regulator duty cycle is high. - This is a system test and may trigger a DTC for any fault causing the EGR system to fail. - The DTC associated with this test is DTC P0401. DTC P1408 is similar to P0401 but performed during KOER Self-Test conditions. 7-6 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

129 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Differential Pressure Feedback EGR (DPFE) Diagnosis and Testing (continued) - The EGR flow rate is checked when the EVR duty cycle is between 80 and 100 percent and the engine RPM is less than The MIL is activated after one of the above tests fails on two consecutive drive cycles. Refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedures. Check all associated wiring for opens, shorts, and proper voltage. Check EGR system vacuum hoses for integrity and proper connection. - A pinched or plugged EGR vacuum hose can trap vacuum between the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid and EGR valve not allowing the EGR valve to close. Check DPFEGR sensor output by applying vacuum with a hand pump. - Disconnect pressure hoses at DPFE sensor (KOEO) and connect a hand vacuum pump to the downstream connection at sensor. - Access DPFEGR PID and note PID value. - Apply 27 to 30 kpa (8 to 9 in-hg) vacuum to the DPFE sensor and hold for a few seconds, then quickly release the vacuum. The DPFEGR PID voltage must be between 0.2 and 1.3 volt with the key on and no vacuum applied. The DPFEGR PID voltage must increase to greater than 4.0 volts with the vacuum applied. The DPFEGR PID must drop to less than 1.5 volts in less than 3 seconds when vacuum is released. Check for EGR flow at idle with the EVR solenoid connector off. - Disconnect the vacuum hose at the EGR valve and connect the hose to a vacuum gauge. - Start the engine and bring to an idle. - While monitoring the vacuum gauge, disconnect the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid harness connector. The EGR valve requires vacuum greater than 5.4 kpa (1.6 in-hg) to begin to open. If the vacuum reading remains greater than 5.4 kpa (1.6 in-hg) after the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid is electrically disconnected, this would indicate a mechanical fault in the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid. Inspect the EVR solenoid vent for plugging. A plugged EGR vacuum regulator solenoid vent does not allow the EGR vacuum to vent to the atmosphere. - Disconnect the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid vacuum hoses, remove the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid vent cap (if removable), remove the filter, and inspect for blockage (or icing in some cases). - With the EGR vacuum supply port plugged, apply 34 to 51 kpa (10 to 15 in-hg) of vacuum directly to the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid vacuum source port with a hand vacuum pump. If the vacuum holds or is slow to release to the atmosphere, the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid vent could be plugged or restricted. Measure EVR solenoid coil resistance. Resistance should be between 26 and 40 ohms. Diagnosis and Testing September,

130 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Stepper Motor EGR System Diagnosis and Testing B+ B+ 1 A1 B1 A2 B EP2703-B/VF Stepper Motor Item Description Item Description 1 PCM 4 Intake manifold 2 TMAP sensor 5 Stepper motor EGR valve 3 Fresh air inlet 6 Exhaust Stepper Motor EGR Monitor The Stepper Motor EGR Monitor consists of an electrical and functional test that checks the stepper motor and the EGR system for proper flow. The PCM controls the EGR valve by commanding from 0 to 52 discreet increments or "steps" to get the valve from fully closed to fully open. The stepper motor electrical test is a continuous check of the four electric stepper motor coils and circuits to the PCM. - The DTC associated with this test is P0403 (open circuit, short to power, or short to ground). - If a malfunction is detected, the EGR system is disabled, setting the KOER, and CMDTC P0403 DTC. - Additional monitoring is suspended for the remainder of the driving cycle, or until the next engine startup. 7-8 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

131 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Stepper Motor EGR System Diagnosis and Testing (continued) The PCM controls the EGR valve by commanding from 0 to 52 discreet increments or "steps" to get the valve from fully closed to fully open to check for proper flow. - DTC P0400 indicates high or low flow malfunction. - Flow is monitored by using a Temperature Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) sensor. - In certain applications, the temperature function is used as a second IAT. - Increased EGR flow increases manifold pressure. A DTC of P1408, like the P0400, indicates an EGR flow failure (outside the minimum or maximum limits) but is only set during the KOER self test. The P0400 and P0403 are MIL codes; the P1408 is a non-mil code. Refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedures. If the DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) was generated by an intermittent condition, maximum benefit of the following pinpoint tests is obtained by having an assistant wiggle the harness/connectors when making measurements. Check all associated wiring for opens, shorts, and proper voltage. Make sure the harness connector at the stepper motor is properly seated. Check all four stepper motor coil windings for opens and shorts. Resistance should be between 20 and 24 ohms. Check for stuck valve operation. - Access the EEGR PID (EGRMDSD) and the MAP PID (MAP). - EGRMDSD (Electronic EGR Motor Desired Position) - Operate the engine at normal operating temperature between 1000/1200 rpm to prevent engine stalling. - Select the Output State Control (OSC) function on the scan tool. - Add a small amount of EGR (approx. 8 to 12 steps) using the OSC function while monitoring the MAP PID. The MAP value should increase as EGR is introduced. The engine RPM must be held at a fixed value during this test. Additionally, DTCs may have been generated as a result of this procedure. After running this test clear any DTC that may have been induced. Diagnosis and Testing September,

132 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Thermostat Heater Control Heated Thermostat The primary objective for the thermostat heater control is for improvement in fuel economy and thermal efficiency. The system consists of a high temperature (98 C/208 F in lieu of a 90 C/194 F) thermostat that has a resistive heater within the wax element. The heater is controlled by the PCM dependent on engine speed, throttle position, engine load, barometric pressure, air charge temperature, transmission oil temperature, and engine coolant temperature. During low speed, low load and low air charge temperature conditions, the thermostat heater is OFF and the engine is allowed to operate at an elevated coolant temperature. This should result in lower internal friction and higher thermal efficiency, both leading to improved fuel economy. During high speed, high load, high temperature conditions (air charge, transmission oil or engine coolant), the PCM output is energized with a duty cycle to the thermostat heater. This heats the wax and forces the thermostat to rapidly open wider allowing extra coolant to flow from the radiator. It should be noted that the heater is only capable of supplying a SMALL amount of additional heat to the wax element. It is NOT capable of opening the thermostat alone. The thermostat is at 100% duty cycle for a short calibrated time and then the duty cycle reduces to a maximum of 70% on and 30% off. Unheated, the thermostat will begin to open at a coolant temperature of approximately 98 C (208 F) and will be fully open at 108 C (226 F). Energizing the heater will reduce the opening temperature to about 68 C (154 F) and the fully open temperature to 103 C (217 F) September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

133 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Thermostat Heater Control Diagnosis and Testing Refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedures. Check for VPWR at the thermostat heater control harness connector. Measure resistance of the thermostat at the two pin terminal connector. Resistance should be between 14 and 16 ohms. Check the thermostat heater control (THTRC) circuit for open in harness. - Disconnect PCM. - Measure resistance of the THTRC circuit between PCM harness connector pin 46 and the thermostat heater control harness connector. Resistance should be less than 5 ohms (indicating continuity). Check the THTRC circuit for short to ground or short to VPWR in harness. - Measure resistance between the THTRC circuit (pin 46) and VPWR, SIG RTN, and PWR GND circuits at the PCM. Resistance should be greater than 10,000 ohms (indicating no short circuit). Diagnosis and Testing September,

134 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO NOTES 7-12 September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

135 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Catalysts EP2704-A/VF EP1083-A/VF COC, TWC, and TWC + COC Item Description Item 1 TWC 4 COC 2 Muffler 5 TWC and COC 3 From Secondary AIR Supply With increasing exhaust emissions, a catalytic converter was added to the exhaust system in the mid-1970s. Catalytic converter technology has steadily improved, and as a result, the modern day catalyst has become the cornerstone of emission control devices. The function of the catalyst is to chemically alter or "convert" HCs, CO, and NOx gases in the exhaust to environmentally safe gases by heating precious metals such as platinum, palladium, rhodium, and ceria. In general, there are three different catalyst system types: the Conventional Oxidation Catalyst (COC), Three-Way Catalyst (TWC), and TWC + COC. The only type of catalyst that is currently monitored by On-Board Diagnostics II (OBD II) is the TWC. Catalyst Efficiency Monitor The Catalyst Efficiency Monitor uses an oxygen sensor before and after the catalyst to infer the hydrocarbon efficiency based on oxygen storage capacity of the catalyst. Under normal, close-loop fuel conditions, high efficiency catalysts have significant oxygen storage. This makes the switching frequency of the rear heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) very slow and reduces the amplitude of those switches as compared to the switching frequency and amplitude of the front HO2S. As the catalyst efficiency deteriorates, its ability to store oxygen declines. The post-catalyst or downstream HO2S signal begins to switch more rapidly with increasing amplitude, approaching the switching frequency and amplitude of the pre-catalyst or upstream HO2S. Symptoms of a malfunctioning catalyst include poor performance (plugged) and the MIL ON (DTCs). Diagnosis and Testing September,

136 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Catalysts Diagnosis and Testing Refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedures. Check the rear HO2S wiring and PCM connections. If the electrical connections of the rear HO2S are interchanged/crossed, the Catalyst Efficiency Monitor Test will fail. Check the fuel pressure. - Inspect the vacuum hose going to the fuel pressure regulator (return system) or the fuel rail pulse damper (mechanical returnless) for proper installation and cracks. - On Electronic Returnless Fuel System (ERFS), the fuel pressure can be monitored by the scan tool using the Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor PID Fuel pressures above specification can produce an abnormally rich air/fuel mixture. The rich air/fuel mixture can cause higher than normal catalyst operating temperatures. Inspect the exhaust system for leaks, cracks, loose connections or punctures. If a catalyst is in series with a leaking exhaust system, it can fail the Catalyst Efficiency Monitor test. Inspect the exhaust system for dents, areas of collapsed material and unusual bending. Check manifold vacuum for an indication of restriction. Manifold vacuum should rise above 54 kpa (16 inches-hg) with the engine speed at 2000 rpm. The vacuum gauge reading may be normal when the engine is first started and idling. However, excessive restriction in the exhaust system causes intake manifold vacuum to decrease with the engine at a steady/constant above-idle speed September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

137 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Mode 6 Data WDS Path and Display of Mode 6 Data Mode 6 Data is a list of OBD II test results from the last time the monitor ran. WDS displays a description of the tests that are performed, test and component identifiers, the acceptable limits for the individual tests performed, and the actual value of the test since the last time the monitor ran (some monitors run every ignition key cycle). When diagnosing an intermittent concern, look for values that are just barely within the limits. These tests may identify the system causing the intermittent failure, even though a DTC has not been recorded. When there are no DTCs present and the symptom is intermittent, accessing Mode 6 Data could help you identify the area of concern. Mode 6 data can be used to diagnose numerous systems, however, it is usually used to diagnose HO2S and CAT systems. Mode 1 Data only contains the government mandated PIDs. Therefore you should use datalogger to view PIDs. Diagnosis and Testing January,

138 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Evaporative Emission Systems (EVAP) System EVAP System Fuel or Hydrocarbons, if not contained, evaporate into the atmosphere and contribute to photochemical smog, ozone deterioration, and eye irritation. In the fuel tank, raw fuel (when heated) evaporates and may cause HC pollutants to escape into the atmosphere. The EVAP system (A) collects these vapors, stores them, and then disposes of them through combustion. Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Leak Check Monitor The Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Leak Check Monitor is an on-board strategy designed to detect a leak from a hole (opening) equal to or greater than mm (0.040 inch) in the Enhanced EVAP system. If the system passes this test, the monitor then checks for a leak from a hole (opening) equal to or greater than mm (0.020 inch). The proper function of the individual components of the Enhanced EVAP system is also examined. The EVAP Leak Check Monitor relies on the individual components of the Enhanced EVAP system to apply vacuum to the fuel tank and then seal the entire Enhanced EVAP system from atmosphere. The fuel tank pressure is then monitored to determine the total vacuum lost (bleed-up) for a calibrated period of time. Inputs from the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) or Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) sensor, Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, vehicle speed, Fuel Level Input (FLI) and Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor are required to enable the EVAP Leak Check Monitor. The EVAP Leak Check Monitor does not run if the key is turned off after a PCM reset or a MAF sensor failure is indicated. The EVAP Leak Check Monitor does not initiate until the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) Monitor has completed. EP2706-A/VF A malfunctioning EVAP system may cause a fuel odor and/or the MIL light to illuminate January, 2006 Diagnosis and Testing

139 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Evaporative Emission Systems (EVAP) System Diagnosis and Testing Refer to the PC/ED for the complete testing procedures. Check all associated wiring for opens, shorts, and proper voltage. Check the resistance of the EVAP canister purge valve. - The EVAP canister purge valve resistance reading must be taken with the engine cooled down. Resistance should be between 30 and 38 ohms (between 2.5 and 6 ohms for electronic EVAP canister purge valve). Check for causes of excessive fuel tank vacuum. - Check for kinks or bends in the fuel vapor hoses/tubes (EVAP canister purge outlet tube and EVAP canister tube). - Visually inspect the EVAP canister inlet port, CV solenoid filter and canister vent hose assembly for contamination or debris. - Check the CV solenoid filter for blockage or contamination. Check for FTP sensor connector contamination. - Check for a completely submerged FTP sensor (tank mounted type only) in liquid fuel (can affect correct FTP voltage reading). Check for a missing or leaking fuel filler cap. Check the resistance of the EVAP canister vent solenoid. Resistance should be between 48 and 65 ohms. Diagnosis and Testing September,

140 EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DAY TWO Output State Control A EP2500-A/VF WDS Output State Control Icons Output State Control aids in servicing output actuators associated with the PCM. This mode allows the technician to energize and de-energize most of the system output actuators on command. For example, by pressing the Output State Control icon (#) and then selecting the appropriate control (A) the technician could: turn the fuel pump ON or OFF. change the speed of the fuel pump to change fuel pressure (electronic returnless systems). activate the IAC valve and control engine rpm. activate the charcoal canister vent solenoid and pressure test the EVAP system. NOTE: As a safety precaution, Output State Control defaults to the OFF state after 10 minutes. The fuel pump defaults to the OFF state after approximately 7-10 seconds. Output State Control also turns off after the vehicle is started or after cycling the key OFF then ON September, 2003 Diagnosis and Testing

141 DAY TWO EMISSIONS SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING EVAP Diagnostics EP2707-B/VF EVAP Test & Equipment Item Description Item Description 1 WDS Powertrain selection 4 Smoke EVAP tester 2 WDS Fuel selection 5 Gas EVAP tester 3 WDS EVAP Test selection After retrieving DTCs with the WDS, the EVAP test function is used to determine if a leak exists. If a leak is detected, the technician can use either the Gas EVAP tester or the Smoke EVAP tester in conjunction with WDS to introduce gas or smoke into the system, to locate the leak. If DTC P0456 is generated, use the leak standard. If DTC P0442 is generated, use the leak standard. EVAP Test Procedure The charcoal canister vent solenoid is commanded ON (closed), using the output state control function. The Gas EVAP tester is connected to the EVAP test port and an inert gas is introduced into the system until the leak is located. Or The Smoke EVAP tester is connected to the EVAP test port and smoke is introduced into the system until the leak is located. NOTE: The gas and smoke EVAP testers are also capable of determining if a leak exists, but a scan tool is needed to close the charcoal canister vent solenoid. Diagnosis and Testing September,
