CLEARING DTCS
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.
To clear DTCs using a scan tool, refer to owners manual
supplied with scan tool. If scan tool is not available, DTCs may also
be cleared by disconnecting negative battery cable or PCM for at least
15 seconds, allowing PCM to clear DTCs. Reconnect negative battery
cable and check for DTCs to confirm repair.

SUMMARY
If no hard DTCs (or only pass DTCs) are present, driveability\
symptoms exist, or intermittent DTCs exist, proceed to H - TESTS W/O
CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START,
etc.) or intermittent diagnostic procedures.
TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION
NOTE: The following terminals are shown as viewed from component
side of connector. Vehicles are equipped with different
combinations of components. Not all components are used on
all models. To determine component usage, see appropriate

carefully follow all SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and DISABLING &
ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM procedures in AIR BAG RESTRAINT
SYSTEM article.
CAUTION: When removing or installing floor console, DO NOT allow any
impact or shock to Supplemental Restraint System Electronic
Control Unit (SRS-ECU).
FRONT HEATER UNIT & HEATER CORE
Removal
1) Deactivate air bag system. See AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM
article. Remove front and rear floor consoles. Remove hood release
handle. Remove fuel door release handle. Remove knee protector and
support brackets. Remove speaker covers.

Remove passenger-side air bag module. Remove heater control panel
cover. Remove heater control panel and radio. Remove plug from
instrument cluster cover. Remove instrument cluster cover and
instrument cluster.
3) Remove steering column cover. Remove clock or plug. Remove
side defroster covers. Remove side mirror control switch. Remove front
speakers.
4) Remove rheostat, rear wiper/washer switch, and door lock
switch. Disconnect ventilation control cable and harness connector.

distribution duct. Remove heater core.
Installation
Install heater core, distribution duct, heater unit and
center reinforcement. Install remaining ducts in reverse order of
removal. Install instrument panel. Tighten steering column bolts to 16
ft. lbs. (22 N.m). Install and adjust ventilation control cable. See
ADJUSTMENTS . To complete installation, reverse removal procedure. Add
coolant and check for leaks.

article.
COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS
CONTROL UNIT
NOTE: For Powertrain Control Module (PCM) location, see
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) LOCATION table. To identify
PCM power and ground terminals, see appropriate pin voltage
chart in J - PIN VOLTAGE CHARTS article. To identify PCM
power and ground circuits, see appropriate wiring diagram in
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
Ground Circuits
1) Turn ignition off. Using an ohmmeter, check continuity
between chassis ground and PCM ground terminal(s). See Figs. 1-5.
Ohmmeter should indicate zero ohms. If reading is not as specified,
check and repair open circuit between PCM connector and chassis
ground. If reading is as specified, go to next step.
2) Connect voltmeter negative lead to chassis ground. Connect
positive lead to PCM ground terminal(s). With engine running,
voltmeter should indicate less than one volt. If reading is more than
one volt, check for open, corrosion or loose connection in ground
circuit.
Power Circuits
Turn ignition on. Check for battery voltage on both PCM power
terminals. See Figs. 1-5. If battery voltage is not present, check
operation of MFI relay. See RELAYS under MOTORS, RELAYS & SOLENOIDS.

INTRODUCTION
NOTE: Unless stated otherwise in testing procedures, perform all
voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a
minimum 10-megohm input impedance. Voltage readings may vary
slightly due to battery condition or charging rate.
Pin voltage charts are supplied to reduce diagnostic time.
Checking pin voltages at the PCM connector determines whether it is
receiving and transmitting proper voltage signals. Diagnostic charts
may also help determine if PCM harness is shorted or open.
TEST PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Shorting positive DVOM lead between connector terminal and
ground could damage vehicle wiring, sensor and PCM.
1) If necessary, remove Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to
access harness connector. For PCM location, see PCM LOCATION table.
Leave PCM connectors connected.
2) Using DVOM, backprobe terminals. Connect positive DVOM
lead to appropriate PCM terminal. Connect negative DVOM lead to PCM
ground terminal. For PCM terminal identification, see appropriate
chart. See Figs. 1-24.
3) All measurements are applicable to vehicle at normal
operating temperature at sea level. Unless otherwise noted, engine is
idling when specification requires engine running. Ensure transmission
shift selector is in Neutral or Park (as applicable). If DVOM displays\
measurement that is not within specification, see G - TESTS W/CODES
article.
