POSSIBLE CAUSES
CHECKING ENGINE MECHANICAL SYSTEMS
TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1 At this point in the diagnostic test procedure, you have determined that all of the
engine electrical systems are operating as designed; therefore, they are not the cause
of the driveability problem.
The following additional items should be checked as possible mechanical causes of
the problem:
ENGINE VACUUM - must be at least 13 inches in neutral
ENGINE VALVE TIMING - must be within specifications
ENGINE COMPRESSION - must be within specifications
CAMSHAFT LOBES - check for abnormal wear
CRANK SENSOR PICK-UP - check crankshaft slots for debris/deterioration
ENGINE EXHAUST SYSTEM - must be free of any restrictions
ENGINE PCV SYSTEM - must flow freely
ENGINE DRIVE SPROCKETS - must be properly positioned
TORQUE CONVERTER STALL SPEED - must be within specifications
POWER BRAKE BOOSTER - no internal vacuum leaks
FUEL - must be free of contamination
FUEL INJECTOR - plugged or restricted injector; control wire not connected to
correct injector
Note: If you came to this test from the oxygen sensor, and the rich or lean
condition is not caused by one of the first items above, replace the power-
train control module and perform TEST VER-2A (Road Test Verification).
Always look for any Technical Service Bulletins that may relate to the problem.
Did you come from an Oxygen Sensor rich or lean condition test?All

Symptom:
SPEED CONTROL DENIED MESSAGE
TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1 At this time the S/C switch and servo functions appear to operate properly.
Using the DRB, monitor the speed control9cutout9status.
Road test the vehicle at speeds over 30mph and attempt to set the speed control.
The following items will not allow the speed control to set. The last or most recent
cause for speed control not to set is indicated by the9Denied9status.
If ON/OFF Denied message is indicated, the Powertrain Control Module does not see
an9ON9signal from the switch at cavity 41.
If SPEED Denied message is indicated, the vehicle speed as seen by the Powertrain
Control Module at cavity 66 is not greater than 36 mph.
If RPM Denied message is indicated, the engine rpm is excessively high.
If BRAKE Denied message is indicated, the Brake Switch Sense Circuit is open
indicating to the PCM that the Brakes are applied. The Sense Circuit, cavity 62 of the
PCM, is grounded through the Brake Pedal Switch when the Brakes are released.
If P/N Denied message is indicated, Park/Neutral Switch Sense Circuit is grounded
indicating to PCM that transmission is not in gear. The Sense Circuit, cavity 76 of
PCM, is grounded through the Park/Neutral Switch when transmission is in park or
neutral.
If RPM/SPD Denied message is indicated, the PCM senses excessive engine rpm for
a given vehicle speed.
If SOL FLT Denied message is indicated, the Powertrain Control Module senses a
Servo Solenoid Circuit trouble code that is maturing or set in memory.All
