SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
| CAUTION | When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION before disconnecting battery. |
Note. Diagnostic tests are written specifically for Chrysler's Diagnostic Readout Box (DRBIII(R)) scan tool. A generic scan tool may not be capable of performing all necessary test functions.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
Note. Before performing any testing procedures, check for any related Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs).
Note. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may also be referred to as CHECK ENGINE light.
MIL is located on instrument cluster, just below the tachometer and is displayed as an engine icon. When ignition is first turned on, MIL should come on and remain on for 2 seconds to verify bulb and circuit operation, and then go off.
Note. If MIL does not come on and remain on for 2 seconds and then go off when ignition is first turned on, check instrument cluster for diagnosis of MIL. See ANALOG INSTRUMENT PANELS - DAKOTA & DURANGO article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors several different engine control system circuits. If malfunction occurs which affects vehicle emissions, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set in PCM and PCM enters limp-in mode. In limp-in mode, PCM substitutes values for failed component and provides continuous engine operation. When DTC is set in PCM, the PCM will turn on MIL and MIL will remain on steady. In some instances, the MIL is turned on when the failure exists and DTC was set. These instances are referred to as one trip DTC. In may instances, the emission system must fail more then once before the PCM will turn on the MIL. These are referred to as a 2 trip DTC. For additional information for trip definition, see TRIP DEFINITION . If problem exists which does not affect vehicle emissions, a DTC will be set in PCM but MIL will not be turned on. OBD-II related DTCs are entered in PCM according to individual priority. The DTC priority determines when MIL is turned on and DTC self-erasure. For additional information for DTC priority and DTC self-erasure, see DTC PRIORITY & DTC SELF-ERASURE . Non-emission related DTCs have no priority in which they are entered in the PCM.
PCM might not store a DTC for a monitored circuit even though a malfunction has occurred. This may happen because one of the criteria for DTC has not been met. For example, assume criteria for DTC requires PCM to monitor a specified sensor output circuit only when engine operates between 750 RPM and 2000 RPM. If the sensor output circuit becomes shorted to ground when engine is operating at 2400 RPM, DTC will not be set, as short to ground occurred at 2400 RPM which exceeds the limit when PCM monitors the circuit.
If PCM detects active engine misfire severe enough to cause catalytic converter damage, MIL will flash to warn the driver of possible damage and DTC will be set.
The PCM will turn off MIL when malfunction is not detected during 3 consecutive trips on all applications except an engine misfire monitor or fuel system monitor. For additional information on engine misfire monitor and fuel system monitor, see MONITORED CIRCUITS . The PCM will turn off MIL when malfunction is not detected during 3 engine misfire or fuel system monitor tests. The PCM performs engine misfire or fuel system monitor tests when engine is operating within 375 RPM and within 10 percent of the load of operating condition at which first malfunction was detected.
DTCs may be retrieved for system diagnosis. See RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES . System malfunctions are identified as either hard failures or intermittent failures. For additional information on hard failures or intermittent failures, see HARD FAILURES and INTERMITTENT FAILURES .
DTC Priority & DTC Self-Erasure
With OBD-II, different OBD-II related DTCs have different priorities according to regulations. The DTC priority determines when MIL will be turned on and DTC is erased or cleared from PCM. DTCs having a high priority will overwrite the lower priority DTCs. DTC priorities and description are as listed.
- Priority "O" - This is a non-emissions related DTC.
- Priority "1" - One trip failure of a 2 trip DTC for non-fuel system and non-misfire conditions.
- Priority "2" - One trip failure of a 2 trip DTC for fuel system rich or fuel system lean condition, or misfire condition.
- Priority "3" - Second trip failure for non-fuel system or non-misfire condition, or a one trip failure.
- Priority "4" - Second trip failure for fuel system rich or fuel system lean and misfire condition, or a one trip catalyst damaging misfire.
One trip failures on a 2 trip DTC have low priority and 2 trip failures have higher priority. One and 2 trip failures for fuel system monitor and misfire monitor take precedence over non-fuel system and non-misfire failures. Non-emission related DTCs have no priority in which they are entered in the PCM.
After 3 good trips, PCM will turn off the MIL. Once MIL is turned off, trip counter is switched to a warm-up counter. PCM must not detect the recent malfunction during 40 warm-up cycles. A warm-up cycle is defined as the engine is started, an increase of 40°F (4°C) in engine coolant temperature exists after engine is started and engine coolant temperature reaches at least 160°F (71°C). After 40 warm-up cycles with no malfunction, PCM will clear DTC from PCM. DTCs may be cleared from PCM using scan tool, but this will erase or clear OBD-II monitor data such as counter information, warm-up cycles, trips and freeze frame data.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
If no faults were found while performing basic diagnostic procedures, proceed with self-diagnostics. Always perform a visual inspection before attempting to diagnose engine control system problems. See VISUAL INSPECTION . Retrieve DTCs. See RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES .
VISUAL INSPECTION
Most driveability problems in the engine control system result from faulty wiring, poor electrical connections, improper wire routing or leaking air and vacuum hose connections. Inspect all engine control system components, hoses, connectors and wiring for damage before proceeding with system testing.
RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Note. If using a generic scan tool or using DRBIII scan tool in generic scan tool mode, Powertrain Control Module (PCM) may stop communications with scan tool. This applies to vehicles with a build date prior to 11-30-99. It may appear that sensor values are not updating on generic scan tool. This condition may occur at any time during communications between PCM and generic scan tool. If this condition occurs, see technical service bulletin No. 08-39-99 for recommended repair procedure.
Note. Ensure battery is fully charged before retrieving diagnostic trouble codes.
Scheme 38
- Ensure ignition off. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located below driver's side of instrument panel. (Scheme 38)
- Turn ignition on with engine off. Using scan tool manufacturer's instructions, read and record Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) message (DRB scan tool) or DTC code (generic scan tool). On any scan tool, if scan tool displays NO RESPONSE and engine does not start, perform «TEST NS-3: ENGINE DOES NOT START & SCAN TOOL DISPLAYS NO RESPONSE»(ref-9482-S19506055852000102700000) which is located after No Trouble Code (NTC) tests following DTC tests under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. If engine starts and scan tool displays NO RESPONSE FROM PCM (CCD), see NO RESPONSE: POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) test under COMMUNICATIONS under SYSTEM TESTS in BODY CONTROL MODULES - DAKOTA & DURANGO article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If scan tool will not power up, check for loose cable connections or bad cable. If cable connections or cable are defective, repair or replace components as necessary and then recheck for DTCs. If cable connections and cable are okay, using voltmeter, check voltage at cavity No. 16 (Pink wire) on DLC. Voltage should be at least 11 volts. If voltage is not as specified, check for defective fuse No. 12 (15-amp), as this fuse supplies voltage from battery to cavity No. 16 on data link connector. Fuse No. 12 is located in junction block on end of driver's side of instrument panel, near door opening. If necessary, check wiring between fuse No. 12 and the battery. See DATA LINK CONNECTORS article and POWER DISTRIBUTION article in WIRING DIAGRAMS. If voltage exists at cavity No. 16 (Pink wire) on DLC but scan tool will not power up and blank screen exists, the ground circuits for DLC should be checked. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between ground and terminals No. 4 (Black/Red wire) and No. 5 (Black/Tan wire) on DLC. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, ground circuit is okay and it may be necessary to try another scan tool or cable. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, open exists on ground circuit. For ground circuit wiring, see GROUND DISTRIBUTION article in WIRING DIAGRAMS.
- Note DTC messages and codes. See «DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS»(ref-9482-S34460187262000102700000).
- If scan tool displays an error message, (i.e., USER-REQUESTED COLD BOOT or USER-REQUESTED WARM BOOT), follow scan tool manufacturer's instructions. If scan tool displays a bus failure, this indicates either a scan tool failure or bus failure. To diagnose and correct bus failures, see COMMUNICATIONS under SYSTEM TESTS in BODY CONTROL MODULES - DAKOTA & DURANGO article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
- Perform appropriate test for displayed DTCs. See appropriate DTC test listed under «DIAGNOSTIC TESTS»(ref-9482-S04448959982000102700000). Once all repairs are made, ensure DTCs are cleared from PCM. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-9482-S31175527272000102700000).
- If no DTCs are displayed, refer to one of the following: For driveability problems, perform «TEST NTC-1: NO TROUBLE CODE TEST MENU»(ref-9482-S18152000352000102700000) located after DTC tests under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. For no-start problems, perform «TEST NS-SEL: NO START TEST SELECTION»(ref-9482-S18486773912000102700000) which is located after No Trouble Code (NTC) tests following DTC tests under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. For speed control problems and additional servicing information, see appropriate CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEMS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. For charging system problems and additional servicing information, see appropriate GENERATORS & REGULATORS article in STARTING & CHARGING SYSTEMS.
Note. If MIL remains on steady and no DTCs exist, check instrument cluster for diagnosis of MIL. See ANALOG INSTRUMENT PANELS - DAKOTA & DURANGO article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
