1.0 INTRODUCTION
The procedures contained in this manual include
specifications, instructions, and graphics needed to
diagnose the PCM Powertrain System. The diag-
nostics in this manual are based on the failure
condition or symptom being present at time of
diagnosis.
Please follow the recommendations below when
choosing your diagnostic path.
1. First make sure the DRBIIItis communicating
with the appropriate modules; ie., if the DRBIIIt
displays a No Response condition, you must
diagnose this first before proceeding.
2. Read DTC's (diagnostic trouble codes) with the
DRBIIIt.
3. If no DTC's are present, identify the customer
complaint.
4. Once the DTC or customer complaint is identi-
fied, locate the matching test in the Table of
Contents and begin to diagnose the symptom.
All component location views are in Section 8.0.
All connector pinouts are in Section 9.0. All system
schematics are in Section 10.0.
An * placed before the symptom description indi-
cates a customer complaint.
When repairs are required, refer to the appropri-
ate service information for the proper removal and
repair procedure.
Diagnostic procedures change every year. New
diagnostic systems may be added; carryover sys-
tems may be enhanced. READ THIS DIAGNOSTIC
INFORMATION BEFORE TRYING TO DIAG-
NOSE A VEHICLE CODE. It is recommended that
you review the entire diagnostic information to
become familiar with all new and changed diagnos-
tic procedures.
If you have any comments or recommendations
after reviewing the diagnostic information, please
fill out the form at the back of the book and mail it
back to us.

3.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND
FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
These Sequential Fuel Injection (SFI) engine sys-
tems have the latest in technical advances. The
on-board Euro Stage III OBD diagnostics incorpo-
rated with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
are intended to assist the field technician in repair-
ing vehicle problems by the quickest means.
3.2 FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
3.2.1 FUEL CONTROL
The PCM controls the air/fuel ratio of the engine
by varying fuel injector on time. Mass air flow is
calculated using the speed density method using
enigne speed, manifold absolute pressure, and air
temperature change.
Different fuel calculation strategies are used de-
pending on the operational state of the engine.
During crank mode, a prime shot fuel pulse is
delivered followed by fuel pulses determined by a
crank time strategy. Cold engine operation is deter-
mined via an open loop strategy until the O2
sensors have reached operating temperature. At
this point, the strategy enters a closed loop mode
where fuel requirements are based upon the state of
the O2 sensors, engine speed, MAP, throttle posi-
tion, air temperature, battery voltage, and coolant
temperature.

GENERAL INFORMATION

3.2.2 ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
The PCM has been programmed to monitor many
different circuits of the fuel injection system. This
monitoring is called on-board diagnosis.
Certain criteria, or arming conditions, must be
met for a trouble code to be entered into the PCM
memory. The criteria may be a range of: engine rpm,
engine temperature, and/or input voltage to the
PCM. If a problem is sensed with a monitored
circuit, and all of the criteria or arming conditions
are met, then a trouble code will be stored in the
PCM.
It is possible that a trouble code for a monitored
circuit may not be entered into the PCM memory
even though a malfunction has occurred. This may
happen because one of the trouble code criteria have
not been met.The PCM compares input signal voltages from
each input device with specifications (the estab-
lished high and low limits of the range) that are
programmed into it for that device. If the input
voltage is not within specifications and other trou-
ble code criteria are met, a trouble code will be
stored in the PCM memory.
The On Board Diagnostics have evolved to the
second Generation of Diagnostics referred to as
Euro Stage III OBD.
The following table summarizes the various
Euro Stage III OBD monitors operation.

GENERAL INFORMATION

3.2.3 OTHER CONTROLS
CHARGING SYSTEM
The charging system is turned on when the
engine is started and ASD relay energized. When
the ASD relay is on, ASD output voltage is supplied
to the ASD sense circuit at the PCM. This voltage is
connected in some cases, through the PCM and
supplied to one of the generator field terminals
(Gen Source +). All others, the Gen field is con-
nected directly to the ASD output voltage. The
amount of current produced by the generator is
controlled by the Electronic Voltage Regulator
(EVR) circuitry, in the PCM. Battery temperature is
determined from IAT. This temperature along with
sensed line voltage, is used by the PCM to vary the
battery charging rate. This is done by cycling the
ground path to the other generator field terminal
(Gen field driver).
SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM
The PCM controls vehicle speed by operation of
the speed control servo vacuum and vent solenoids.
Energizing the vacuum solenoid applies vacuum to
the servo to increase throttle position. Operation of
the vent solenoid slowly releases the vacuum allow-
ing throttle position to decrease. A special dump
solenoid allows immediate release of throttle posi-
tion caused by braking, cruise control switch turned
off, shifting into neutral, excessive RPM (tires spin-
ning) or ignition off.
LEAK DETECTION PUMP SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The leak detection pump is a device that pressur-
izes the evaporative system to determine if there
are any leaks. When certain conditions are met, the
PCM will activate the pump and start counting
pump strokes. If the pump stops within a calibrated
number of strokes, the system is determined to be
normal. If the pump does not stop or stops too soon,
a DTC will be set.
3.2.4 PCM OPERATING MODES
As input signals to the PCM change, the PCM
adjusts its response to output devices. For example,
the PCM must calculate a different injector pulse
width and ignition timing for idle than it does for
wide open throttle. There are several different
modes of operation that determine how the PCM
responds to the various input signals.
There are two types of engine control operation:
open loopandclosed loop.
Inopen loopoperation, the PCM receives input
signals and responds according to preset program-
ming. Inputs from the heated oxygen sensors are
not monitored.Inclosed loopoperation, the PCM monitors the
inputs from the heated oxygen sensors. This input
indicates to the PCM whether or not the calculated
injector pulse width results in the ideal air-fuel
ratio of 14.7 parts air to 1 part fuel. By monitoring
the exhaust oxygen content through the oxygen
sensor, the PCM can fine tune injector pulse width.
Fine tuning injector pulse width allows the PCM to
achieve the lowest emission levels while maintain-
ing optimum fuel economy.
The engine start-up (crank), engine warm-up,
and wide open throttle modes are open loop modes.
Under most operating conditions, closed loop modes
occur with the engine at operating temperature.
IGNITION SWITCH ON (ENGINE OFF) MODE
When the ignition switch activates the fuel injec-
tion system, the following actions occur:
1. The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure
from the MAP sensor input to determine basic
fuel strategy.
2. The PCM monitors the engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor and throttle position sensor input.
The PCM modifies fuel strategy based on this
input.
When the key is in the on position and the engine
is not running (zero rpm), the auto shutdown relay
and fuel pump relay are not energized. Therefore,
voltage is not supplied to the fuel pump, ignition
coil, and fuel injectors.
Engine Start-up ModeÐ This is an open loop
mode. The following actions occur when the starter
motor is engaged:
1. The auto shutdown and fuel pump relays are
energized. If the PCM does not receive the cam-
shaft and crankshaft signal within approxi-
mately one second, these relays are de-
energized.
2. The PCM energizes all fuel injectors until it
determines crankshaft position from the cam-
shaft and crankshaft signals. The PCM deter-
mines crankshaft position within one engine
revolution. After the camshaft position has been
determined, the PCM energizes the fuel injectors
in sequence. The PCM adjusts the injector pulse
width and synchronizes the fuel injectors by
controlling the fuel injectors' ground paths.
3. Once the engine idles within 64 rpm of its target
engine speed, the PCM compares the current
MAP sensor value with the value received dur-
ing the ignition switch on (zero rpm) mode. A
diagnostic trouble code is written to PCM mem-
ory if a minimum difference between the two
values is not found.
4
GENERAL INFORMATION

Once the auto shutdown and fuel pump relays
have been energized, the PCM determines the fuel
injector pulse width based on the following:
± engine coolant temperature
± manifold absolute pressure
± intake air temperature
± engine revolutions
± throttle position
The PCM determines the spark advance based on
the following:
± engine coolant temperature
± crankshaft position
± intake air temperature
± manifold absolute pressure
± throttle position
Engine Warm-Up Modeþ This is an open loop
mode. The PCM adjusts injector pulse width and
controls injector synchronization by controlling the
fuel injectors' ground paths. The PCM adjusts igni-
tion timing and engine idle speed. The PCM adjusts
the idle speed by controlling the idle air control
motor.
Cruise or Idle Modeþ When the engine is at
normal operating temperature, this is a closed loop
mode.
Acceleration Modeþ This is a closed loop mode.
The PCM recognizes an increase in throttle position
and a decrease in Manifold Vacuum as engine load
increases. In response, the PCM increases the in-
jector pulse width to meet the increased load. The
A/C compressor may be de-energized for a short
period of time.
Decelerationþ This is a closed loop mode. The
PCM recognizes a decrease in throttle position and
an increase in Manifold Vacuum as engine load
decreases. In response, the PCM decreases the
injector pulse width to meet the decreased load.
Full injector shut off may be obtained during high
speed deceleration.
Wide Open Throttle Modeþ This is an open
loop mode. The throttle position sensor notifies the
PCM of a wide open throttle condition. Once a wide
open throttle is sensed, the PCM de-energizes the
A/C compressor clutch relay for 20 seconds.
3.2.5 NON-MONITORED CIRCUITS
The PCM does not monitor the following circuits,
systems, and conditions even though they could
have malfunctions that result in driveability prob-
lems. A diagnostic code may not be displayed for the
following conditions. However, problems with these
systems may cause a diagnostic code to be displayed
for other systems. For example, a fuel pressure
problem will not register a diagnostic code directly,
but could cause a rich or lean condition. This couldcause an oxygen sensor, fuel system, or misfire
monitor trouble code to be stored in the PCM.
Engine Timingþ The PCM cannot detect an
incorrectly indexed timing chain, camshaft
sprocket, or crankshaft sprocket. The PCM also
cannot detect an incorrectly indexed distributor.(*)
Fuel Pressureþ Fuel pressure is controlled by
the fuel pressure regulator. The PCM cannot detect
a clogged fuel pump inlet filter, clogged in-line filter,
or a pinched fuel supply.(*)
Fuel Injectorsþ The PCM cannot detect if a fuel
injector is clogged, the pintle is sticking, or the
wrong injectors are installed.(*)
Fuel Requirementsþ Poor quality gasoline can
cause problems such as hard starting, stalling, and
stumble. Use of methanol-gasoline blends may re-
sult in starting and driveability problems. See indi-
vidual symptoms and their definitions in Section
6.0 (Glossary of Terms).
PCM Groundsþ The PCM cannot detect a poor
system ground. However, a diagnostic trouble code
may be stored in the PCM as a result of this
condition.
Throttle Body Air Flowþ The PCM cannot
detect a clogged or restricted air cleaner inlet or
filter element.(*)
Exhaust Systemþ The PCM cannot detect a
plugged, restricted, or leaking exhaust system.(*)
Cylinder Compressionþ The PCM cannot de-
tect uneven, low, or high engine cylinder compres-
sion.(*)
Excessive Oil Consumptionþ Although the
PCM monitors the exhaust stream oxygen content
through the oxygen sensor when the system is in a
closed loop, it cannot determine excessive oil con-
sumption.

3.2.6 SKIS OVERVIEW
The Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) is
designed to prevent unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion. The system consists of a Sentry Key Immobi-
lizer Module (SKIM), ignition key(s) equipped with
a transponder chip and PCM. When the ignition
switch is turned on, the SKIM interrogates the
ignition key. If the ignition key is Valid or Invalid,
the SKIM sends a PCI Bus message to the PCM
indicating ignition key status. Upon receiving this
5
GENERAL INFORMATION

powertrain control module checks that circuit or
function. Procedures in this manual verify if the
DTC is a hard code at the beginning of each test.
When it is not a hard code, an intermittent test
must be performed.
DTC's that are for Euro Stage III OBD monitors
will not set with just the ignition key on. Comparing
these to non-emission DTC's, they will seem like an
intermittent. These DTC's require a set of parame-
ters to be performed (The DRBIIItpre-test screens
will help with this for MONITOR DTC's), this is
called a TRIP. All Euro Stage III OBD DTCs will be
set after one or in some cases two trip failures, and
the MIL will be turned on. These DTC's require
three successful, no failures, TRIPS to extinguish
the MIL, followed by 40 warm-up cycles to erase the
DTC.
3.3.2 INTERMITTENT CODE
A diagnostic trouble code that is not there every
time the PCM checks the circuit is an intermittent
DTC. Most intermittent DTC's are caused by wiring
or connector problems. Defects that come and go
like this are the most difficult to diagnose; they
must be looked for under specific conditions that
cause them. The following checks may assist you in
identifying a possible intermittent problem:
²Visually inspect related wire harness connectors.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded
terminals.
²Visually inspect the related harnesses. Look for
chafed, pierced, or partially broken wire.
²Refer to any technical service bulletins that may
apply.
²Use the DRBIIItdata recorder or co-pilot.
3.3.3 DISTANCE SINCE MI SET
The Euro Stage III OBD directive requires that
the distance traveled by the vehicle while theMIis
activated must be available at any instant through
the serial port on the standard data link connector.
This feature works as follows:1. If the MI is illuminated due to a fault, the
distance count is updated (i.e. it is counting).
2. If there is a9stale9MI fault (i.e. the fault is still
frozen in memory but the MI has heen extin-
guished due to 3 good trips), the distance count is
held (i.e. frozen).
3. If the distance count is being held due to (Item
2.) and the fault is cleared, the distance is
cleared (set to zero).
4. If the distance count is being held due to (Item
2.) and another MI occurs, the distance count is
reset (to 0) and begins updating anew.
5. If a fault occurs while the MI is already illumi-
nated due to a previous fault (the distance count
is updating), then the distance count continues
to update w/out interruption.
6. If the MI is flashing due to activate misfire and
there is and9active9fault (i.e. matured fault for
which 3 good trips have not occurred), the dis-
tance count behaves as the MI in ON.
7. If the MI is flashing due to active misfire and
there is no9active9fault (i.e. the MI is flashing
for a 1 malf.), the distance count behaves as if
the MI is off (because it is not yet a matured
fault).
8. The distance count is cleared whenever the fault
is cleared. (Via 40 warm up cycles, or via scan
tool).
3.3.4 HANDLING NO DTC PROBLEMS
Symptom checks cannot be used properly unless
the driveability problem characteristic actually
happens while the vehicle is being tested.
Select the symptom that most accurately de-
scribes the vehicle's driveability problem and then
perform the test routine that pertains to this symp-
tom. Perform each routine test in sequence until the
problem is found. For definitions, see Section 6.0
