INTRODUCTION
Most engine control problems are the result of mechanical breakdowns, poor electrical connections or damaged vacuum hoses. Before considering the computer system as a possible cause of problems, perform checks and inspections covered in appropriate BASIC TESTING article. Failure to do so may result in lost diagnostic time.
If no faults were found while performing BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES, proceed with DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If no fault codes are present and driveability problems exist, proceed to TESTS W/O CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START, etc.). If only intermittent codes are present, see INTERMITTENTS in TESTS W/O CODES article.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
Note. Powertrain Control Module (PCM) may also be referred to as Vehicle Control Module (VCM) in some diagnostic text and illustrations. Terms may be used interchangeably.
PCM/VCM is equipped with a self-diagnostic system, which detects system failures or abnormalities. When a malfunction occurs, PCM/VCM will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and, in most cases, illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) located on instrument panel. Malfunctions are recorded as hard failures or as intermittent failures.
There are 4 types of DTC category
- Type "A" Emissions related, turns on MIL the first time DTC sets.
- Type "B" Emissions related, turns on MIL if fault is active for 2 consecutive driving cycles.
- Type "C" Non-emissions related, does not turn on MIL, but will turn on SERVICE light.
- Type "D" Non-emissions related, does not turn on MIL or SERVICE light.
HARD FAILURES
Most hard failures cause MIL to illuminate and remain on until malfunction is repaired. If MIL comes on and remains on (light may flash) during vehicle operation, cause of malfunction must be determined. See DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE .
If a sensor fails, PCM/VCM will use a substitute value in its calculations to continue engine operation. In this condition, vehicle is functional, but it will most likely display degraded driveability.
INTERMITTENT FAILURES
Intermittent failures cause MIL to flicker or glow and go out about 10 seconds after intermittent fault goes away. Corresponding DTC, however, will be retained in PCM/VCM memory. If related fault does not reoccur within 50 engine starts, trouble code will be erased from control module memory. Intermittent failures may be caused by sensor, connector or wiring related problems. See INTERMITTENTS in TESTS W/O CODES article.
Note. OBD II vehicles have options available in the scan tool DTC mode to display enhanced information available. However, to fully utilize information and procedures requires the use of a Tech 1 scan tool. See tester operator's manual for additional information.
The following are Tech 1 scan tool sub-menus in the DTC INFO and SPECIFIC DTC modes
DTC INFO MODE
Used to search for a specific type of stored DTC information. There are 7 choices in this mode. Technician may be instructed to test DTC(s) in a certain manner. Follow the affected DTC test procedures. To get complete description of any status, hit ENTER key before pressing the desired F-key.
DTC STATUS
This selection will display any DTC(s) that have not run during the current ignition cycle or have reported a test failure during this ignition up to a maximum of 33 DTCs. DTC test which run and passed will cause that affected DTC to be removed from scan tool screen.
FAIL THIS IGN.
This selection will display all DTCs that have failed during the present ignition cycle.
HISTORY
This selection will display only DTC(s) that are stored in the control module's history memory. It will not Type "B" DTCs. It will display all type "A" and type "B" DTCs that have the MIL illuminated and have failed within the last 40 warm-up cycles. It will also display type "C" DTCs that have failed within the 40 warm-up cycles.
LAST TEST FAIL
This selection will display only DTCs that have failed the last time the test ran. The last test may have ran during the previous ignition cycle, if a type "A" or "B" DTC is displayed. For type "C" DTCs, the last failure must have occurred during the current ignition cycle to be displayed as LAST TEST FAIL.
MIL REQUEST
This selection will display only DTCs that are requesting the MIL. Type "C" DTCs cannot be displayed using this option. This selection will report type "B" DTCs only after the MIL has been requested.
NOT RUN SCC
Not Run Since Code Clear option will display up to 33 DTCs that have not run since DTCs were last cleared. Since any displayed DTCs have not run, their condition (passing or failing) is unknown.
TEST FAIL SCC
Test Fail Since Code Clear selection will display all active and history DTCs that have reported a test failure since the last time DTCs were cleared. DTCs that last failed over 40 warm-up cycles before this option is selected will not be displayed.
FAILED SINCE CLEAR
This message indicates the DTC has failed at least once within the last 40 warm-up cycles since the last time DTCs were cleared.
NOT RUN SINCE CL.
Not Run Since Cleared message indicates that the selected diagnostic test has not run since the last time DTCs were cleared. Therefore, the diagnostic test status (passed or failed) is unknown. After DTCs are cleared, this message will continue to be displayed until the diagnostic test runs.
NOT RUN THIS IGN.
Not Run This Ignition message indicates the selected diagnostic test has not run this ignition cycle.
TEST RAN AND PASSED
This message indicates the selected diagnostic test has
- Passed the last test.
- Ran and passed during this ignition cycle.
- Ran and passed since DTCs were last cleared.
- Test has not failed since DTCs were last cleared.
If this message is displayed, repair is done. If FAILED THIS IGN. message is displayed, repair is incomplete and further diagnosis is required.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
Diagnosis of computerized engine control system should be performed in following order
- Ensure all engine systems not related to computer system are operating properly. DO NOT proceed with testing unless all other problems have been repaired. ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK must be performed before using specific DTC testing procedure. See appropriate OBD SYSTEM CHECK procedure in appropriate BASIC TESTING article.
- If DTC(s) were displayed, determine whether codes are hard or intermittent trouble codes. Hard codes will cause MIL to illuminate continuously while engine is running. See «HARD OR INTERMITTENT TROUBLE CODE DETERMINATION»(/chevrolet/monte-carlo/v-1994-1999/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes-31l-engine__hard-or-intermittent-trouble-code-determination) . For diagnosing hard codes, proceed to appropriate DTC test. For diagnosing intermittent codes, proceed to INTERMITTENTS in appropriate TESTS W/O CODES article.
- If no DTCs are present and a driveability problem exists, refer to SYMPTOMS in appropriate TESTS W/O CODES article. Doing so will help identify proper system or component to check in appropriate SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article.
- After necessary repairs are made, clear DTCs, verify vehicle will enter "closed loop" operation and ensure DTC does not reset.

TROUBLE CODE DEFINITION
HARD OR INTERMITTENT TROUBLE CODE DETERMINATION
During any diagnostic procedure, determine if DTC(s) are hard failure codes or intermittent failure codes. Diagnostic procedures will not always help analyze intermittent codes. To determine hard codes and intermittent codes
- Enter diagnostic mode. Read and record all stored DTCs. Exit diagnostic mode, and clear DTCs. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC)»(/chevrolet/monte-carlo/v-1994-1999/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes-31l-engine__clearing-diagnostic-trouble-codes-dtc) .
- Apply parking brake, and place transmission in Neutral or Park. Block drive wheels, and start engine. MIL should go out. Run warm engine at specified RPM for 2 minutes and note MIL.
- If MIL comes on, enter diagnostic mode. Read and record DTCs. This will reveal hard failure codes. Oxygen sensor related codes may require a road test to reset hard failure after trouble codes were cleared.
- If MIL does not come on, all stored DTCs were intermittent failures, except as noted above.
Note. DTCs will be recorded at various operating times. Some codes require operation of that sensor or switch for 5 seconds; others require operation for 5 minutes or longer at normal operating temperature, vehicle speed and load. Therefore, some DTCs may not set in a service bay operational mode and may require road testing vehicle in order to duplicate conditions under which code will set.
CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC)
To clear DTCs from memory, either to determine if malfunction will occur again or after making necessary repairs, disconnect power supply to PCM/VCM for at least 30 seconds or clear codes using a scan tool.
PCM/VCM LOCATION
On most models, PCM/VCM is located behind right or left side of dash, behind right or left kick panel or on left or right side of engine compartment. For more precise location, see COMPONENT LOCATIONS in appropriate SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article.
Diagnostic Aids
Diagnostic aids are additional tips used to help diagnose trouble codes when inspected circuit is okay. Diagnostic aids may help lead to a definitive solution to trouble code problem.
SPECIAL TOOLS (DIAGNOSTIC)
Note. A scan tool plugged into DLC is used to read DTCs and check voltages in system on serial data line. A scan tool is REQUIRED to retrieve vehicle information.
Computerized engine control system is most easily diagnosed using scan tool; however, other tools may aid in diagnosing problems. These tools are a tachometer, test light, ohmmeter, digital voltmeter with a 10-megohm input impedance (minimum), vacuum pump, vacuum gauge, fuel injector test lights and 6 jumper wires 6" long (one wire with female connectors at both ends, one wire with male connectors at both ends and 4 wires with male and female connectors at opposite ends). A test light, rather than a voltmeter, must be used when indicated by a diagnostic test. In addition, special jumper harnesses or testers may be required by manufacturer to facilitate diagnosis.
SCAN TOOL USAGE
Note. Before connecting scan tool to vehicle, diagnostic system should be checked to determine if system is operating properly and if information received will be accurate. This is done by performing DIAGNOSTIC CIRCUIT CHECK or ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK located in appropriate BASIC TESTING article. If vehicle does not pass OBD system check, information received may be invalid.
Scan tool is a specialized tester which, when plugged into DLC, can be used to diagnose on-board computer control systems by providing instant access to circuit voltage information without need to crawl under dash or hood to backprobe sensors and connectors.
Scan tool cuts down diagnostic time dramatically by furnishing input data (voltage signals) which can be compared to specification parameters. See SCAN DATA . They may also furnish information on output device (solenoids and motors) status. However, status parameters only indicate output signals have been sent to devices by PCM/VCM; they do not indicate whether devices have responded properly to signal. Verify proper response at output device using a voltmeter or test light.
A problem may exist even if DTCs are not present. About 80 percent of driveability problems occur without DTCs. Sensors that are out of calibration will not set a DTC but will cause driveability problems.
Using a scan tool is the easiest method of checking sensor specifications and other data parameters. Scan tool is also useful in finding intermittent wiring problems by wiggling wiring harnesses and connections (key on, engine off) while observing data parameters. See SCAN DATA .
Note. If erroneous voltage signals are suspected, verify tester information using a digital voltmeter and wiring schematic. If non-existent codes are displayed, DO NOT use scan tool for diagnosis. Contact tester manufacturer for additional information.
SCAN DATA
Note. For scan data values, refer to scan tool manufacturer owner's manual or compare values with a known good component or vehicle.

Circuit Description
This test determines if MAF sensor is providing proper readings to the PCM. MAF sensor is a high-frequency device that measures the rate of airflow through the throttle body. MAF sensor outputs a series of pulses that varies in frequency with airflow. PCM uses this signal for fuel control.
MAF sensor readings during acceleration will be much higher than those during deceleration or idle. PCM calculates what MAF sensor reading should be received from the sensor under certain conditions using engine speed (RPM), throttle position, and altitude parameters. When these test conditions are met, PCM will compare its calculated MAF value to the actual value received from the sensor. The calculated MAF reading is obtained by comparing MAP sensor, RPM and IAT sensor values. If difference between calculated MAF and actual MAF is too great, DTC will set.

DTC P0300-P0308 - ENGINE MISFIRE DETECTED
Note. DTC P0300 is set when the ECM recognizes a general misfire in the engine. If the ECM determines the cylinder causing the misfire it will set a specific DTC P0301-P0308, to indicate the number of the cylinder causing the misfire. If a DTC P0301-P0308 is retrieved, use this procedure to diagnose the misfire condition in the indicated cylinder.
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor and Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor to detect if engine is misfiring. PCM looks for a sudden drop in crankshaft speed. Under light misfire conditions, it may take more than one trip to set a DTC. Severe misfire will flash Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) indicating that catalytic converter damage is possible.

If any MISFIRE CURRENT counters are incrementing, repeat step 2). If MISFIRE CURRENT counters are not incrementing, repair is complete.
Scan tool provides information that can be useful in identifying the misfire cylinder. If DTC P0300 is currently stored as TEST FAILED SINCE LAST CODE CLEAR, misfire history counters (MISFIRE HIST NO. 1-6) will still contain a value that represents level of misfire for each cylinder. Counter values can help determine is misfire is isolated to a single cylinder or to pair of cylinders.
If largest amount of activity is isolated to a pair or cylinders, check resistance of spark plug wires. Resistance should be less than 30 k/ohms. Check resistance of ignition coil. Resistance should be 5000-7000 ohms. If coil resistance is okay, try a known-good coil.
If misfire is random, check system grounds. Check MAF sensor. See SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article. Check for vacuum leaks. Check fuel pressure. Check fuel injectors. Check EGR valve.
