Testing & Diagnostics ~348 words

Note. Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).

  1. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the ECT sensor and the IAT sensor. Are the connections and terminals OK? YES - Go to step 2. NO - Repair the connectors or terminals, then go to step 15 .
  2. Remove the IAT sensor (see «IAT SENSOR REPLACEMENT»(ref-220840-S24735224512006022100000) ).
  3. Allow IAT sensor to cool to 77°F (25°C).
  4. Note the ambient temperature.
  5. Connect the IAT sensor to the 2P connector, but do not install in the intake manifold.
  6. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
  7. Note the value of IAT SENSOR quickly in the DATA LIST with the HDS.
  8. Compare the value of IAT SENSOR and the ambient temperature. Does the value of IAT SENSOR differ 5.4°F (3°C) or more? YES - Go to step 13 . NO - Go to step 9.
  9. Disconnect the IAT sensor from the 2P connector.
  10. Blow hot air on the IAT sensor with a heat gun.
  11. Connect IAT sensor to the 2P connector, but do not install in the intake manifold.
  12. Check the IAT SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Does the IAT SENSOR change 58°F (32°C) or more? YES - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the IAT sensor and the ECM/PCM. NO - Go to step 13.
  13. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
  14. Remove the IAT sensor (see «IAT SENSOR REPLACEMENT»(ref-220840-S24735224512006022100000) ).
  15. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
  16. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
  17. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see «ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE»(ref-220843-S14332728472006022100000) ).
  18. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS. Are any Temporary DTCs or DTCs indicated? YES - If DTC P0111 is indicated, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the IAT sensor and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1 If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated «DTC TROUBLESHOOTING»(ref-220840-S22832464282006022100000) . NO - Troubleshooting is complete.
