stop start DODGE RAM SRT-10 2006 Service Workshop Manual

If the MIL is ON and a DTC was set by the Fuel Monitor or Misfire Monitor (both continuous monitors), the
vehicle must be operated in the Similar Condition Window for a specified amount of time.
If the MIL is ON and a DTC was set by a Task Manager commanded once-per-trip monitor (such as the Oxy-
gen Sensor Monitor, Catalyst Monitor, Purge Flow Monitor, Leak DetectionPump Monitor, EGR Monitor or
Oxygen Sensor Heater Monitor), a good trip is when the monitor is passed on the next start-up.
If the MIL is ON and any other emissions DTC was set (not an OBD II monitor), a good trip occurs when the
Oxygen Sensor Monitor and Catalyst Monitor have been completed, or two minutes of engine run time if the
Oxygen Sensor Monitor and Catalyst Monitor have been stopped from running.
Fuel System Good Trip
To count a good trip (three required) and turn off the MIL, the following conditions must occur:
Engine in closed loop
Operating in Similar Conditions Window
Short Term multiplied by Long Term less than threshold
Less than threshold for a predetermined time
If all of the previous criteria are met, the PCM will count a good trip (threerequired) and turn off the MIL.
Misfire Good Trip
If the following conditions are met the PCM will count one good trip (three required) in order to turn off the MIL:
Operating in Similar Condition Window
1000 engine revolutions with no misfire
Warm-Up Cycles
Once the MIL has been extinguished by the Good Trip Counter, the PCM automatically switches to a Warm-Up
CycleCounterthatcanbeviewedontheDRBIII.Warm-UpCyclesareusedtoerase DTCs and Freeze Frames.
Forty Warm-Up cycles must occur in order for the PCM to self-erase a DTC and Freeze Frame. A Warm-Up Cycle
is defined as follows:
Engine coolant temperature must start below and rise above 160° F (71.1°C).
Engine coolant temperature must rise by 40° F (4.4°C)
No further faults occur
Freeze Frame Data Storage
Once a failure occurs, the Task Manager records several engine operating conditions and stores it in a Freeze
Frame. The Freeze Frame is considered one frame of information taken by an on-board data recorder. When a fault
occurs, the PCM stores the input data from various sensors so that technicians can determine under what vehicle
operating conditions the failure occurred.
The data stored in Freeze Frame is usually recorded when a system fails the first time for two trip faults. Freeze
Frame data will only be overwritten by a different fault with a higher priority.
CAUTION: Erasing DTCs, either with the DRB III or by disconnecting the battery, also clears all Freeze
Frame data.
Similar Conditions Window
The Similar Conditions Window displays information about engine operation during a monitor. Absolute MAP (engine
load) and Engine RPM are stored in this window when a failure occurs. There are two different Similar conditions
Windows: Fuel System and Misfire.
FUEL SYSTEM
Fuel System Similar Conditions Window— An indicator that ’Absolute MAP When Fuel Sys Fail’ and ’RPM
When Fuel Sys Failed’ are all in the same range when the failure occurred. Indicated by switching from ’NO’
to ’YES’.
Absolute MAP When Fuel Sys Fail— The stored MAP reading at the time of failure. Informs the user at
what engine load the failure occurred.
Absolute MAP— A live reading of engine load to aid the user in accessing the Similar Conditions Window.
RPM When Fuel Sys Fail— The stored RPM reading at the time of failure. Informs the user at what engine
RPM the failure occurred.

ORVR
DESCRIPTION
The ORVR (On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery) system consists of a unique fuel tank, flow management valve,
fluid control valve, one-way check valve and vapor canister.
OPERATION
The ORVR (On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery) system is used to remove excess fuel tank vapors. This is done
while the vehicle is being refueled.
Fuel flowing into the fuel filler tube (approx. 1” I.D.) creates an aspiration effect drawing air into the fuel fill tube.
During refueling, the fuel tank is vented to the EVAP canister to capture escaping vapors. With air flowing into the
filler tube, there are no fuel vapors escaping to the atmosphere. Once the refueling vapors are captured by the
EVAP canister, the vehicle’s computer controlled purge system draws vapor out of the canister for the engine to
burn. The vapor flow is metered by the purge solenoid so that there is no, or minimal impact on driveability or
tailpipe emissions.
As fuel starts to flow through the fuel fill tube, it opens the normally closed check valve and enters the fuel tank.
Vapor or air is expelled from the tank through the control valve and on to thevapor canister. Vapor is absorbed in
the EVAP canister until vapor flow in the lines stops. This stoppage occursfollowing fuel shut-off, or by having the
fuel level in the tank rise high enough to close the control valve. This control valve contains a float that rises to seal
the large diameter vent path to the EVAP canister. At this point in the refueling process, fuel tank pressure
increases, the check valve closes (preventing liquid fuel from spiting back at the operator), and fuel then rises up
the fuel filler tube to shut off the dispensing nozzle.
