Engine Controls - Tests W/codes - 5.7L: Diagnosis Chevrolet Tahoe I

SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM

Note. For On-Board Diagnostic System Check see the F - BASIC TESTING - 5.7L article.

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 cluster. Malfunctions are recorded as hard failures or as intermittent failures.

There are 4 types of DTC category

1. Type "A" - Emissions related, turns on MIL the first time DTC sets.
2. Type "B" - Emissions related, turns on MIL if fault is active for 2 consecutive driving cycles.
3. Type "C" - Non-emissions related, does not turn on MIL, but will turn on SERVICE light.
4. Type "D" - Non-emissions related, does not turn on MIL or SERVICE light.

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.

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.

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.

TEST RAN AND PASSED

This message indicates the selected diagnostic test has

1. Passed the last test.
2. Ran and passed during this ignition cycle.
3. Ran and passed since DTCs were last cleared.
4. 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

1. 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 the «F - BASIC TESTING - 5.7L»(ref-20660) article.
2. 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»(ref-20681-S05808687052001010200000) . For diagnosing hard codes, proceed to appropriate DTC test. For diagnosing intermittent codes, proceed to INTERMITTENTS in the TESTS W/O CODES article.
3. If no DTCs are present and a driveability problem exists, refer to SYMPTOMS in the TESTS W/O CODES article. Doing so will help identify proper system or component to check in the SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article.
4. After necessary repairs are made, clear DTCs, verify vehicle will enter "closed loop" operation and ensure DTC does not reset.

READING TROUBLE CODES

Note. Use of Tech 1 or 2 scan tool is required to retrieve DTCs. Refer to user reference manuals supplied with scan tool.

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

1. Enter diagnostic mode. Read and record all stored DTCs. Exit diagnostic mode, and clear DTCs. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC)»(ref-20681-S12813568472001010200000) .
2. Apply parking brake, and place transmission in Neutral or Park. Block drive wheels, and start engine. MIL should go out. Operate warm engine at specified RPM for 2 minutes and note MIL.
3. If MIL illuminates, 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 DTCs were cleared.
4. If MIL does not illuminate, 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 ECM/PCM/VCM for at least 30 seconds or clear codes using a scan tool.

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 ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK located in the F - BASIC TESTING - 5.7L 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.

If scan tool does not indicate that this test ran and passed, repeat step 2).
18. Using scan tool, select CAPTURE INFO, REVIEW INFO. If any undiagnosed DTC(s) are displayed, go to applicable DTC test.

A faulty TP sensor or TP sensor circuit can cause VCM to incorrectly calculate predicted mass airflow value. Observe throttle angle with throttle closed. If throttle angle is not zero, check for throttle plate sticking or excessive deposits on throttle plate or throttle bore, TP signal circuit shorted to voltage, or for poor connection or high resistance in TP sensor ground circuit. If a problem is not found and TP sensor angle at closed throttle is not zero, replace TP sensor.

Inspect VCM connectors for backed-out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals and poor terminal-to-wire connection. Inspect MAF sensor harness routing to ensure it is not too close to high-voltage wires such as spark plug leads. Inspect wiring harness for damage. If harness is okay, observe scan tool while wiggling MAF sensor related connectors and wiring harness. A change in display will indicate location of fault.

A Wide Open Throttle (WOT) acceleration from a stop should cause mass airflow displayed on scan tool to increase from about 4-7 gm/s at idle to 100 gm/s or greater at 1-2 shift. If mass airflow does not indicate as specified, check for a plugged intake air duct or dirty air filter element. A skewed MAP sensor can cause BARO reading to be incorrectly calculated. To check MAP sensor, compare BARO reading on vehicle being diagnosed to a BARO reading on a normally operating vehicle. If a large difference is noted (over 8 kPa), replace MAP sensor. This may cause abnormally high IAC counts. If a comparison vehicle is not available, check IAC counts with engine running just off idle. If IAC counts are high, replace MAP sensor.

IF DTC P0101 can not be duplicated, FAIL RECORDS data can be useful in determining vehicle mileage since DTC was last set. This may determine how often DTC sets.

Misfire index can be monitored using scan tool. Each cylinder has a misfire counter for current and history. Current misfire counter can be used to determine which cylinder is misfiring. Current misfire counter for a currently misfiring cylinder will be increased by a factor of 2. If VCM is unable to determine which cylinder is misfiring, counter will increase by a factor of one for each cylinder that may have misfired.

An intermittent misfire may be caused by spark plug wires, coil wires, contaminated fuel or low fuel level. Ensure spark plug wires are securely connected to spark plugs and distributor cap. Check wire routing for crossfiring. If misfire occurs during damp weather, check for worn plug wires. Spray wires with water with engine running and check for spark to jump from wires. If spark is present, replace wires.

Check fuel condition and quality. Dirty or contaminated fuel could cause misfire condition. If fuel level is low, contaminates on bottom of tank could be introduced into fuel system. Severely out of balance tires could result in DTC setting. Road test vehicle and check for out of balance tires or drive line components.

Misfire index can be monitored using scan tool. Each cylinder has a misfire counter for current and history. Current misfire counter can be used to determine which cylinder is misfiring. Current misfire counter for a currently misfiring cylinder will be increased by a factor of 2. If VCM is unable to determine which cylinder is misfiring, counter will increase by a factor of one for each cylinder that may have misfired.

An intermittent misfire may be caused by spark plug wires, coil wires, contaminated fuel or low fuel level. Ensure spark plug wires are securely connected to spark plugs and distributor cap. Check wire routing for crossfiring. If misfire occurs during damp weather, check for worn plug wires. Spray wires with water with engine running and check for spark to jump from wires. If spark is present, replace wires.

Check fuel condition and quality. Dirty or contaminated fuel could cause misfire condition. If fuel level is low, contaminates on bottom of tank could be introduced into fuel system. Severely out of balance tires could result in DTC setting. Road test vehicle and check for out of balance tires or drive line components.

Misfire index can be monitored using scan tool. Each cylinder has a misfire counter for current and history. Current misfire counter can be used to determine which cylinder is misfiring. Current misfire counter for a currently misfiring cylinder will be increased by a factor of 2. If VCM is unable to determine which cylinder is misfiring, counter will increase by a factor of one for each cylinder that may have misfired.

An intermittent misfire may be caused by spark plug wires, coil wires, contaminated fuel or low fuel level. Ensure spark plug wires are securely connected to spark plugs and distributor cap. Check wire routing for crossfiring. If misfire occurs during damp weather, check for worn plug wires. Spray wires with water with engine running and check for spark to jump from wires. If spark is present, replace wires.

Check fuel condition and quality. Dirty or contaminated fuel could cause misfire condition. If fuel level is low, contaminates on bottom of tank could be introduced into fuel system. Severely out of balance tires could result in DTC setting. Road test vehicle and check for out of balance tires or drive line components.
