FUEL INJECTION PUMP TIMING
CHECKING FUEL INJECTION PUMP TIMING
NOTE: With Bosch VP 44 pump, no mechanical adjustments are
necessary. All timing and fuel adjustments are performed by
Engine Control Module (ECM). If a FTC indicating engine sync
error or static timing error has been set, perform following
adjustment. If FTC sets after installing a new pump, pump
keyway has probably been installed backward.
CAUTION: DO NOT allow nut and washer to fall inside front cover.
1) Remove fuel pump access cover, shaft nut and washer.
Ensure keyway aligning pump shaft to pump gear has not slipped. If
keyway has slipped, repair as necessary.
2) Remove timing gear cover. See REMOVAL, OVERHAUL &
INSTALLATION - TRUCKS - DIESEL article. Using a T-type puller, remove
injection pump gear from shaft. Ensure key has been installed in
keyway with arrow pointing to rear of pump. Pump timing is calibrated
to pump keyway. Ensure 3-digit number on key matches number on pump

NOTE: All active codes must be resolved before diagnosing store
codes.
1) Raise and support vehicle. Start engine and let idle with
transmission in PARK position. Wiggle wiring harness and connectors of
air bag system and rotate steering wheel from stop to stop.
2) Visually inspect related wire harness connectors. Look for
broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded or contaminated terminals.
Also, look for chafed, pierced, pinched or partially broken wires.
3) Check for trouble codes as you work through system. If
stored trouble code becomes active, perform appropriate diagnostic
test. If stored code is reproducible, repair or replace wiring
harness, harness connector or terminals or replace component as
necessary.
CLUSTER MESSAGE MISMATCH
NOTE: Perform AIR BAG VERIFICATION TEST after
all repairs. Each time a connector is disconnected, inspect
it to ensure it is in good condition. Always focus on circuit
being tested. Dirt, water and corrosion, are most common
problems in connectors. Due to manufacturer changes in wire
colors, use terminal identification whenever possible.
1) If AIR BAG warning light is on, go to next step. If AIR
BAG warning light is not on, go to step 5).

DISPLAY. Read WARNING LAMP STATUS. If DRB does not display MIC LAMP
STATUS ON, replace instrument cluster. If DRB displays MIC LAMP STATUS
ON, go to next step.
3) If DRB displays ACM LAMP REQUEST: ON, go to next step. If
DRB does not display ACM LAMP REQUEST: ON, replace instrument cluster.

will flash seat belt light for 30 seconds starting 10 seconds
after bulb check stops.
5) Using DRB, read air bag control module active codes
(messages). If CLUSTER MISMATCH is only active message, go to next
step. If other messages are present, go to appropriate diagnostic test
to continue diagnosis.

bulb check is complete, replace instrument cluster. If seat belt
warning light does not flashes for 30 seconds after bulb check is
complete, go to next step.
7) Using DRB, select PASSIVE RESTRAINTS, AIRBAG and MONITOR
DISPLAY. Read WARNING LAMP STATUS. If DRB displays ACM LAMP REQUEST:
OFF, go to next step. If DRB does not display ACM LAMP REQUEST: OFF,

connectors. Turn ignition on (engine off). Fully operate system that
was malfunctioning. If system operates properly, repair is complete.
If system does not operate properly, go to appropriate diagnostic
test.
VEHICLE COMMUNICATIONS
VEHICLE COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS
NOTE: Use this test only when instructed to do so by another
diagnostic test. Due to manufacturer changes in wire
colors, use terminal identification whenever possible.
DRB Blank Screen
If DRB Screen is blank, disconnect DRB from data link
connector. Ensure good ground exists at data link connector terminal
No. 4 (Black/Tan wire). Ensure 12-volts exists at data link connector
terminal No. 16 (Pink wire). If 12-volts does not exist, check for
blown fuse No. 12 located in power distribution center. If no problems
can be found, try a different DRB cable and/or a different DRB.
No Response Condition
If no response condition from Air Bag Control Module (ACM)
exists, go to NO RESPONSE FROM AIR BAG CONTROL MODULE .
NO RESPONSE FROM AIR BAG CONTROL MODULE
NOTE: Perform COMPONENT VERIFICATION TEST under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS
after all repairs. Each time a connector is disconnected,
inspect it to ensure it is in good condition. Always focus on
circuit being tested. Dirt, water and corrosion, are most
common problems in connectors. Due to manufacturer changes in
wire colors, use terminal identification whenever possible.

connector. Reinstall fuse No. 19. Turn ignition on (engine off). Using\
a voltmeter, check voltage at ACM connector terminal No. 14 (Light
Green/Yellow wire). If voltage is more than 10 volts, go to next step.
If voltage is less than 10 volts, repair open in Light Green/Yellow
wire.
4) Turn ignition off. Using DRB in ohmmeter mode, check
resistance at ACM connector terminal No. 4 (Black/Pink wire). If
resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open in Black/Pink wire. If
resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
5) Turn ignition on (engine off). Using DRB in voltmeter
mode, check voltage at ACM connector terminal No. 21 (Violet/Brown
wire). If voltage is 1.8-2.6 volts, go to next step. If voltage is not
1.8-2.6 volts, repair open in Violet/Brown wire.

6) Using DRB in voltmeter mode, check voltage at ACM
connector terminal No. 22 (White/Black wire). If voltage is 1.8-2.6
volts, replace ACM. If voltage is not 1.8-2.6 volts, repair open in
White/Black wire.
OPEN FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (RUN/START) CKT
NOTE: Perform COMPONENT VERIFICATION TEST under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS
after all repairs. Each time a connector is disconnected,
inspect it to ensure it is in good condition. Always focus on
circuit being tested. Dirt, water and corrosion, are most
common problems in connectors. Due to manufacturer changes in
wire colors, use terminal identification whenever possible.
1) Turn ignition on (engine off). Using DRB in voltmeter
mode, probe output side (Dark Blue wire) of fuse No. 19 located in
junction block. If voltage is less than 10 volts, repair open in Dark
Blue wire. If voltage is more than 10 volts, go to next step.
2) Turn ignition off and wait 2 minutes before proceeding.
Using DRB in ohmmeter mode, probe fused side (Light Green/Yellow wire)\
of fuse No. 19 located in junction block. If resistance is less than 5
ohms, go to next step. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, go to step
4).
3) Disconnect ACM connector. Using DRB in ohmmeter mode,
probe fused side (Light Green/Yellow wire) of fuse No. 19 located in
junction block. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to
ground in Light Green/Yellow wire an replace fuse No. 19. If
resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace ACM and fuse No. 19.
4) Turn ignition off and wait 2 minutes before proceeding.
Disconnect ACM. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance between ACM
connector terminal No. 14 (Light Green/Yellow wire) and fused side
(Light Green/Yellow wire) of fuse No. 19 located in junction block. If\
resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open in Light Green/Yellow wire
and replace fuse No. 19. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next
step.
5) Reconnect ACM connector. Turn ignition on (engine off).
replace fuse No. 19. Perform appropriate diagnostic test under
DIAGNOSTIC TESTS.
NO RESPONSE FROM POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
NOTE: Perform COMPONENT VERIFICATION TEST under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS
after all repairs. Each time a connector is disconnected,
inspect it to ensure it is in good condition. Always focus on
circuit being tested. Dirt, water and corrosion, are most
common problems in connectors. Due to manufacturer changes in
wire colors, use terminal identification whenever possible.
1) If engine does not run, repair as required. If engine
runs, disconnect Powertrain Control Module (PCM) connectors. Connect a\
jumper wire between ground and PCM Gray connector terminal C30
(Violet/Brown wire). Using DRB, perform CCD bus test. If DRB does not
display SHORT TO GROUND, repair open Violet/Brown wire. If DRB
displays SHORT TO GROUND, go to next step.
2) Connect a jumper wire between ground and PCM Gray
connector terminal C28 (White/Black wire). Using DRB, perform CCD bus
test. If DRB does not display SHORT TO GROUND, repair open White/Black
wire. If DRB displays SHORT TO GROUND, replace PCM.
