REVISED TERMINOLOGY

Ground Circuits

  1. Using a DVOM, check for continuity to ground on PCM terminals No. 20, 40 and 60. (Scheme 80) Resistance should be zero ohms. If resistance is not zero ohms, repair open to ground.
  2. Touch negative lead of voltmeter to a good ground. With vehicle running, backprobe positive lead of voltmeter to each ground terminal. Voltmeter should indicate less than one volt. If reading is greater than one volt, check for open, corrosion or loose connection on ground lead.

Power Circuits

Using a voltmeter, check for battery voltage between PCM terminal No. 1 (KAPWR) and ground. Check for battery voltage at terminals No. 37 and 57 (VPWR). If battery voltage is not present, power is not being supplied from EEC power relay. See CIRCUIT TEST B in appropriate TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section.

  1. Connect tachometer to engine. Run engine at idle. Disconnect and reconnect injectors individually. If each injector causes a momentary drop in engine speed of at least 100 RPM, injectors are giving proper fuel delivery. RPM drop should only be momentary as IAC will attempt to re-establish correct idle RPM.
  2. Replace any injectors that do not cause sufficient drop in engine speed. When test is complete and all injectors cause equal drop in speed, shut off engine. In order to check curb idle, refer to emission control specifications on decal in engine compartment.

IDLE CONTROL SYSTEM

See IDLE AIR CONTROL (IAC) SOLENOID under SOLENOIDS under RELAYS & SOLENOIDS. Curb idle and fast idle speed are controlled by Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and are not adjustable. Some throttle bodies have a sludge-tolerant design with a special coated throttle bore. A Yellow/Black warning decal on these units warns against backing off throttle plate adjustment screw to avoid throttle plate sticking in bore. Faults in idle control system components or circuit should set a service code. See QUICK TEST in appropriate TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section.

IGNITION SYSTEMS

Note. For additional information and descriptions, see IGNITION SYSTEMS in THEORY/OPERATION article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section. Perform spark output check in BASIC TESTING article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section before these tests. Some ignition systems require that QUICK TEST be performed before testing. This will retrieve trouble codes from EEC-IV system. See TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section.

Function of each valve can be determined by externally energizing valve with vacuum lines attached. Check resistance of each solenoid. Resistance should be 51-108 ohms when checked at coil terminals. If resistance is not 51-108 ohms, solenoid should be replaced.

Air Injection Solenoid Valve

  1. Vacuum control valve is normally closed when not energized. Valve may come with or without controlled bleed. Unstable idle may result from a leaking AIR solenoid valve. An electrical malfunction with valve should set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
  2. If unstable idle exists, remove vacuum hose from valve and plug hose. Warm engine to normal operating temperature. If idle becomes smoother, replace valve.

Vacuum Check Valve

Apply 16 in. Hg vacuum to check side of valve and trap. If vacuum remains greater than 15 in. Hg for 10 seconds, valve is okay. If vacuum drops faster, replace valve.

Vacuum Reservoir

When charged with 15-20 in. Hg vacuum, vacuum loss should not exceed .5 in. Hg in 60 seconds. If vacuum loss is faster, replace reservoir.

EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR)

Note. EVR solenoid has a constant internal leak. A small vacuum signal of less than one in. Hg vacuum is noticeable at idle.

Differential Pressure Feedback Electronic (DPFE) Sensor

Faults in DPFE sensor or circuit should set a trouble code. If no trouble code has been set, see CIRCUIT TEST DL in TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section.

Electronic EGR (EEGR) Valve

  1. Ensure all vacuum hoses are correctly routed and securely attached. Replace any crimped or broken hoses. Ensure there is less than one in. Hg vacuum to EGR valve at idle with engine at normal operating temperature.
  2. Install tachometer. Disconnect Idle Air By-Pass Valve electrical connector (if equipped). Remove and plug vacuum hose at EGR valve. Start engine. Idle in Neutral. Note idle speed. Using hand vacuum pump, slowly apply 5-10 in. Hg vacuum to EGR valve. When vacuum is fully applied, engine should do one or more of following: Engine should stall. Idle speed should drop more than 100 RPM. Idle speed should return to normal when vacuum is released.
  3. Repair or replace EGR system if none of above occurs. Reconnect idle air by-pass valve electrical connector. Unplug and reconnect vacuum hose at EGR valve.

EGR Vacuum Regulator (EVR)

  1. Faults in EVR or circuit should set a trouble code. See QUICK TEST in «TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV»(ref-22952) article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section. If no trouble code has been set, see CIRCUIT TEST DN in «TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV»(ref-22952) article for diagnostic procedures.
  2. Remove EVR harness connector. Measure resistance across EVR terminals. Resistance should be 65-110 ohms. Set DVOM to 200-k/ohm scale. Measure resistance between each terminal and ground. Resistance should be 10,000 ohms or more. If resistance is not as specified in either test, replace solenoid.

Apply 16 in. Hg vacuum to check side of valve and trap. If vacuum remains greater than 15 in. Hg for 10 seconds, valve operation is normal. If vacuum does not remain greater than 15 in. Hg for 10 seconds, replace valve.

When charged with 15-20 in. Hg vacuum, vacuum loss should not exceed .5 in. Hg in 60 seconds. If vacuum loss is greater than specified, replace reservoir.

Canister Purge Regulator (CPR) Valve

With CPR valve de-energized, apply 5 in. Hg vacuum to source port. Valve should not pass air. Apply 9-14 volts to one electrical terminal, and ground other. Valve should open and pass air. If valve does not operate as described, replace valve.

  1. Disconnect CANP solenoid harness connector. Set DVOM to 200-ohm scale. Measure resistance across CANP solenoid terminals. Resistance should be 40-90 ohms. If resistance is not as specified, replace CANP solenoid.
  2. Disconnect vacuum hose at CANP solenoid on manifold vacuum side. Apply 16 in. Hg vacuum to manifold vacuum side of solenoid. CANP solenoid should hold vacuum for 20 seconds.
  3. Faults in CANP solenoid or circuit should set a trouble code. See QUICK TEST in «TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV»(ref-22952) article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section. If no trouble code has been set, see CIRCUIT TEST KD in «TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV»(ref-22952) article for additional solenoid and circuit testing.

EVAP Canister

There are no moving parts in canister. Check for loose, missing, cracked or broken connections and parts. Repair or replace as necessary. There should be no liquid in canister.

PCV Valve

  1. Remove PCV valve from rocker cover grommet. Shake valve. If valve does not rattle when shaken, replace valve. Start engine and warm to normal operating temperature.
  2. Disconnect hose from remote air cleaner or outlet tube. Place stiff piece of paper over hose end, and wait 60 seconds. Vacuum should hold paper in place. If vacuum does not hold paper in place, replace valve.

Air Cleaner Temperature Sensor

Bring temperature of sensor to less than 75°F (24°C), and apply 8 in. Hg vacuum to source port. Duct door should close. If door does not close, replace sensor. Sensor will bleed off vacuum to allow duct door to open and let in fresh air at specific temperatures. See AIR CLEANER TEMPERATURE SENSOR OPENING table.

Brown70°F (21°C)

AIR CLEANER TEMPERATURE SENSOR OPENING

Air Control Door

When a vacuum of 8 in. Hg or more is applied to vacuum motor, door should stay in proper position for as long as vacuum is applied. If vacuum bleeds off and door returns to rest position, replace vacuum motor.
