Symptom Diagnosis
Preliminary Checks
Before using this section, perform the ªOn-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) System Checkº and verify all of the
following items:

The powertrain control module (PCM), and
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) (Check Engine
lamp) and Reduced Power Lamp (RPL) are operating
correctly.

There are no DTC(s) stored.

Tech 2 data is within normal operating range. Refer to
Typical Scan Data Values.

Verify the customer complaint and locate the correct
symptom in the table of contents. Perform the
procedure included in the symptom chart.
Visual/Physical Check
Several of the symptom procedures call for a careful
visual/physical check. This can lead to correcting a
problem without further checks and can save valuable
time.
This check should include the following items:

PCM grounds for cleanliness, tightness and proper
location.

Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, and proper
connections, as shown on the ªVehicle Emission
Control Informationº label. Check thoroughly for any
type of leak or restriction.

Air intake ducts for collapsed or damaged areas.

Air leaks at throttle body mounting area, mass air flow
(MAF) sensor and intake manifold sealing surfaces.

Ignition components for cracking, hardness, and
carbon tracking.

Wiring for proper connections, pinches and cuts.
Intermittents
IMPORTANT:An intermittent problem may or may not
turn on the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) or store a
DTC. DO NOT use the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
charts for intermittent problems. The fault must be
present to locate the problem.
Most intermittent problems are caused by faulty electrical
connections or wiring. Perform a careful visual/physical
check for the following conditions:

Poor mating of the connector halves or a terminal not
fully seated in the connector (backed out).

Improperly formed or damaged terminal.

All connector terminals in the problem circuit should
be carefully checked for proper contact tension.

Poor terminal-to-wire connection. This requires
removing the terminal from the connector body to
check.
Road test the vehicle with a J 39200 Digital Multimeter
connected to a suspected circuit. An abnormal voltage
when the malfunction occurs is a good indication that
there is a fault in the circuit being monitored.
Use a Tech 2 to help detect intermittent conditions. The
scan tool has several features that can be used to locatean intermittent condition. Use the following feature to find
intermittent faults:

Using a Tech 2's ªFreeze Frameº buffer or ªFailure
Recordsº buffer can aid in locating an intermittent
condition. Review and record the information in the
freeze frame or failure record associated with the
intermittent DTC being diagnosed. The vehicle can
be driven within the conditions that were present
when the DTC originally set.
To check for loss of diagnostic code memory, disconnect
the MAP sensor and idle the engine until the MIL (Check
Engine lamp) comes on. DTC P0107 should be stored
and kept in memory when the ignition is turned ªOFFº. If
not, the PCM is faulty. When this test is completed, make
sure that you clear the DTC P0107 from memory.
An intermittent MIL (Check Engine lamp) with no stored
DTC may be caused by the following:

Ignition coil shorted to ground and arcing.

MIL (Check Engine lamp) wire to PCM shorted to
ground.

Poor PCM grounds. Refer to the PCM wiring
diagrams.
Check for improper installation of electrical options such
as lights, cellular phones, etc. Check all wires from the
PCM to the ignition coils for poor connections.
Check for an open diode across the A/C compressor
clutch and check for other open diodes (refer to wiring
diagrams in
Electrical Diagnosis).
If problem has not been found, refer to
PCM Connector
Symptom
tables.

Check the ªCalibration IDº of the PCM, and compare it
with the latest Isuzu service bulletins and/or Isuzu
EEPROM reprogramming equipment to determine if
an update to the PCM's reprogrammable memory
has been released. To check the ªCalibration IDº,
connect the Tech 2, then look for ªPowertrainº, then
select ªCalibration IDº. This identifies the contents of
the reprogrammable software and calibration
contained in the PCM. If the ªCalibration IDº is not the
most current available, it is advisable to reprogram
the PCM's EEPROM memory, which may either help
identify a hard-to-find problem or may fix the problem.
