Note. DTC P1696: PCM FAILURE EEPROM WRITE DENIED is monitored with ignition on. DTC may be stored in Powertrain Control Module (PCM) when PCM's attempt to program/write to internal EEPROM fails. Possible cause is: defective PCM.
- Turn ignition on, with engine off. Using scan tool, perform SRI MEMORY TEST. If scan tool displays WRITE REFUSED, go to next step. If scan tool does not display WRITE REFUSED, test is complete.
- Using scan tool, repeat SRI MEMORY TEST. If scan tool displays WRITE REFUSED, replace PCM. PCM is located in engine compartment. See PCM LOCATION table under SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS. Perform TEST VER-5A. If scan tool does not display WRITE REFUSED, test is complete.
