ENGINE CRANKS BUT WILL NOT RUN
Circuit Description:
If the "Scan tool" did not indicate a engine speed and there is no spark present at the plugs, the problem lies in the
electronic ignition system
or the power and ground supplies to the module.
The magnetic crankshaft position is used to determine engine crankshaft position sensor much the same way as
the pick-up coil did in distributor type systems. The sensor is mounted in the block near a seven slot wheel on the
crank shaft. The rotation
of the wheel creates a flux change in the sensor which produces a voltage signal. The
Ignition Control Module (ICM) then processes this signal and creates the reference pulses needed by the engine
control module and the signal triggers the correct coil at the correct time.

IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY CHECKS
BEFORE STARTING
Before using this section you should have performed
the on-board diagnostic system check and determined
that:
1. The engine control module and "Check Engine"
malfunction indicator lamp are operating
correctly.
2. There are no diagnostic trouble codes stored, or
there is a diagnostic trouble code but no "Check
Engine" malfunction indicator lamp.
SYMPTOM
Verify the customer complaint, and locate the correct
symptom in the
table of contents. Check the items
indicated under
that symptom.
VISUAL/PHYSICAL CHECK
Several of the symptom procedures call for a Careful
Visual/Physical
Check. The importance of this step
cannot
be stressed too strongly -it can lead to
correcting a
problem witho'ut further checks and can
save
valuable time. This check should include: •
Engine control
module grounds for being clean,
tight and in their proper location.
•
Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, and proper
connections,
as shown on "Vehicle Emission
Control Information" label. Check thoroughly for
any type of leak or restriction.
• Air leaks atthrottle body mounting area and intake
manifold
sealing surfaces.
• Ignition wires for cracking, hardness, proper
routing and carbon tracking.
• Wiring for proper connections, pinches and cuts.
• Fuel lines for being pinched or misrouted.

will not light when connected to the circuit. In some
cases, even an ordinary shop voltmeter
will not give an
accurate reading because its resistance is
too low.
Therefore, a 10 megohms input impedance digital
voltmeter is required to assure accurate voltage
readings.
The Engine
Control Module (ECM) controls output
circuits such as the fuel injectors, idle air control valve,
air conditioning clutch relay, etc. by controlling the
ground circuit through transistors
or a device called a
"quad-driver".
INFORMATION SENSORS
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
(Fig. 6E2-51)
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor is a
thermistor
(a resistor which changes value based on
temperature) mounted in the engine coolant stream.
Low ECT produces a high resistance (1 00,000 ohms at
-40.C/-40.F) while high temperature causes low
resistance (70 ohms at 130.C/266.F).
The ECM supplies a 5-volts signal to the ECT sensor
through a resistor in the
ECM and measures the
voltage. The voltage
will be high when the engine is
cold, and low when the engine is hot.
By measuring the voltage, the
ECM knows the ETC.
ECT affects most systems the ECM controls.
A failure in the
ECT sensor circuit should set a
Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) 14. Remember, these
DTC(s) indicate a failure in the
ETC circuit, so proper
use
of the chart will lead to either repairing a wiring
problem or replacing the sensor, to properly repair a
problem.

Fig. 6E2-51
Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor is a
thermistor, a resistor which changes
value based on
the temperature
of air entering the engine. Low
temperature produces a high resistance
(1 00,000
ohms at -4o·c/-40.F), while high temperature causes
low resistance (70 ohms at 130.C/266.F).
The ECM supplies a 5-volts signal to the sensor through
a resistor in the
ECM and measures the voltage. The
voltage
will be high when the intake air is cold, and low
DRIVEABILITV AND EMISSIONS 6E2-1 01
when the air is hot. By measuring the voltage, the ECM
knows the lAT.
The IAT sensor is also used to control spark timing and
delays exhaust gas recirculation when intake air is
cold.
A failure in the IAT sensor circuit should set a DTC 23.
Heated Oxygen Sensor (H02S) (Fig. 6E2-52)
The Heated Oxygen Sensor (H02S) is mounted in the
exhaust system where
it can monitor the Oxygen (02)
content of the exhaust gas stream. The 02 content in
the exhaust reacts
with the sensor to produce a voltage
output. This voltage ranges
from approximately .1 volt
(high 02-lean mixture) to .9 volt (low 02-rich mixture).
This voltage can
be measured with a digital voltmeter
having at
least 10 megohms input impedance. Use of
standard shop type voltmeters will result in very
inaccurate readings.
By monitoring the voltage
output ofthe H02S, the ECM
will know what fuel mixture command to give to the
injector
(lean mixture-low 02 voltage= rich command,
rich mixture-high
02 voltage= lean command).
The
H02S circuit, if open, should set a DTC 13. A
constant
low voltage in the sensor circuit should set a
DTC 44. While a constant high voltage in the circuit
should set a DTC 45. DTC(s) 44 and 45 could also be set
as a result of fuel system problems. See DTC charts for
conditions that can cause a lean or rich system.
The
H02S works in the same manner as the non-H02S
The exception is that battery positive voltage is
supplied to a heating unit that is part of the sensor
itself. This heater receives voltage
from the ECM's
main
relay circuit.
The heater
helps to heat up the H02S so the ECM can
start
controlling the fuel injection sooner for better fuel
emissions. There are no malfunction DTC(s) to detect if
the heater part of the sensor is working. To check the
heater, refer to "Functional
Check" in this section.

Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
The Throttle Position (TP) Sensor is mounted on the
side
of the throttle body opposite the throttle lever
assembly.
Its function is to sense the current throttle
body position and relay that information to the ECM.
Knowledge ofTP is needed by the ECM to generate the
proper injector pulse width.
If the TP sensor senses a
Wide
Open Throttle, a voltage signal indicating this
condition is transmitted to the
ECM. The ECM will
widen the injector pulse, or increase the repetition rate,
permitting increased fuel
flow to each for the six fuel
injectors located in the fuel fail. As the throttle shaft
rotates in response to
movement of the accelerator
pedal (opening
or closing of the throttle body), the
throttle shaft transmits throttle
movement to the TP
sensor. A potentiometer (variable resistor) within the
TP sensor assembly creates a voltage that varies in
response to
TP. By applying a reference voltage (+5
VDC) to the TP sensor input, a varying voltage
(reflecting
TP) is available at the TP sensor output. The
voltage
output from the TP sensor is sent to the ECM
for use in determining current TP.
For further information ofTP sensor, refer to "ECM and
Sensors", Section
"6E2-C1 ". The TP sensor is an auto
zeroing type and cannot
be adjusted.

DIAGNOSIS
FUEL METERING SYSTEM
Some failures of this system will result in the symptom,
"Engine Cranks But Will Not Run". If this condition
exists, see CHART A-3. This chart will determine
if the
problem is caused by the ignition system,
ECM or fuel
pump circuit.
If it's determined to be a fuel problem.
CHART A-5
or A-7 will be used. This includes the
injectors, fuel pressure control valve, fuel
pump and
fuel pump relay. The fuel system
wiring schematic
diagram is covered on the facing page
of CHART A-5.
If a malfunction occurs in the fuel control system, it
usually results in either a rich or lean Heated Oxygen
Sensor (H02S) signal condition. This condition is
sensed by the
H02S and the ECM will change the fuel
calculation (injector pulse width) based on
H02S input.
The change made to the fuel calculation will be
indicated
by a change in the block learn values which
can be displayed on a
"Scan tool". The ideal block learn
values are around 128 counts.
If the H02S senses a
lean condition, the
ECM will add fuel, resulting in a
block learn value above 128 counts.
If the H02S senses
a rich condition, the
ECM will subtract fuel, resulting in
a block learn value below 128 counts.
Block learn values can vary greatly, depending on
temperature, altitude and individual engine
tolerances. The programmed range for block learn
values is
58 to 198. Values within this range indicate
the system is in
"control". If a system is operating near
the extremes
of the block learn range during normal vehicle
operation, and there is a driveability complaint,
the fuel metering system should be checked. Refer to
the diagnostic trouble code
45 chart on the facing page
for potential causes of a rich condition (low block learn
values). Refer to the diagnostic trouble code 44 chart
facing page
for potential causes of a lean condition
(high block learn values).
If a driveability symptom
exists, also refer to the particular symptom in
"Symptoms", Section "6E2-B" for additional items to
check.
FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE TEST
A fuel system pressure test procedure is included in
CHART A-7 under
"Fuel System Diagnosis" in "Engine
Components/Wiring Diagrams/Diagnostic
Charts",
Section "6E2-A" diagnostic charts.
IDLE AIR CONTROL (lAC) VALVE
A "Scan tool" will display Idle Air Control (lAC) valve
position in
"Counts" or steps. "0" steps indicates the
ECM is commanding the lAC valve to be driven all the
way in, to a fully seated position. This condition is
usually caused by a vacuum leak.
The higher the number
of counts, the more air is being
allowed to pass the
lAC valve. A functional check of the
lAC valve system (CHART C-2C) is provided in this
section. Refer to
"Refer, Unstable, or Incorrect Idle,
Stalling"
in "Symptoms", Section "6E2-B" for other
possibilities
for the cause of idle problems.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
FUEL PUMP RELAY
The fuel pump relay is mounted in the engine
compartment.
Other than checking for loose
connectors, the only service possible is replacement.
MUL TIPORT FUEL INJECTION
COMPONENTS
WCAUTION:
VI • To reduce the risk of fire and personal injury, it
is necessary to relieve the fuel system pressure
before servicing
fuel system components.
• After relieving system pressure, a small
amount of fuel may be released when servicing
fuel lines or connections. In order to reduce the
chance
of personal injury, cover fuel line
fittings with a shop towel before disconnecting,
to catch any
fuel that may leak out. Place the
towel in an approved container when
disconnect is completed.
Fuel Pressure Relief Procedure
1. Remove fuel cap.
2. Remove fuel pump relay from underhood relay
box.
3. Start engine and allow to stall.
4. Crank engine for additional 30 seconds.
5. Remove negative battery cable.
FUEL RAIL ASSEMBL V
An eight digit identification number is stamped on the
side
ofthe fuel rail (Fig. 6E2-75). Refer to this number if
servicing or part replacement is required.
Names
of component parts appear in the numbered
list on the disassembled view (Fig. 6E2-75).
'fCAUTION:
• Do not attempt to remove the fuel inlet fitting
on the
fuel rail, it is staked in place. To do so will
result
in damage to the fuel rail or to the internal
0-ring seal.
•
Do care in removing the fuel rail assembly, to
prevent damage to the injector
electrical
connector terminals and the injector spray tips.
• Prevent dirt and other contaminants from
entering open lines and passages. Fittings
should be capped, and holes plugged, during
servicing.
Before
removal, the fuel rail assembly may be
cleaned with a spray type engine cleaner,
following
package instructions. Do not
immerse fuel rails in liquid cleaning solvent.

MINIMUM THROTTLE BODY (TB)
POSITION CHECK
The minimum throttle body (TB) position (throttle stop
screw) adjustment
for the 3.2L should not be
considered the
"minimum idle speed", as on other fuel
injected engines. Low internal friction and provision
for slight production variations and various operation
altitudes resulted in a calibrated
minimum TB position
which is too
low to allow most engines to idle. The
adjustment is preset at the factory and no further
adjustment should be necessary.
If there is a complaint of high idle speed, vacuum leaks
should be considered the
most likely cause. Because
the Engine
Control Module (ECM) "learns" Idle lAC, it is
even less likely
that a stalling complaint would be due
to
an incorrect minimum TB position. In either case,
the
"Symptoms," Section "6E2-B" and lAC valve check
CHART C-2C should be referred to.
If it is determined that the minimum TB position is
suspect,
be sure lAC valve is not "lost'' (not actually at
the location indicated by current
lAC "counts"). The
lAC valve could be "lost" if ECM power has been
interrupted
with the ignition "ON", or the lAC valve has
been disconnected
with the engine running since the
last reset,
as described previously in this section in the
"lAC Valve Assembly" general description.
DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS 6E2-127
The minimum TB position may be checked using the
following procedure.
1. Block drive wheels, and apply parking brake.
2. Connect "Scan tool" to the data link connector.
3. Start engine and allow to reach operating
temperature (about
go•q and "Closed Loop".
4. A/T-shift to DRIVE ("D") and then back to neutral
("N").
5. Select power steering pressure switch input on
"Scan tool". With air conditioning and all electrical
accessories
"OFF", transmission in natural, "Scan
tool" should read "OFF" or "NORMAL". (If not,
refer to
CHART C-1 E to diagnose and repair faulty
power steering pressure switch circuit before
proceeding).
Allow idle to stabilize.
6. Select lAC valve display on "Scan tool", and read
lAC valve counts. If between 5-45 counts, the
minimum
TB position adjustment is acceptable. It
is important to allow idle speed to stabilize to
assure correct counts are determined.
If counts in step 6 are too low, check for intake air
(vacuum) leaks at hoses,
TB and intake manifold or
damaged throttle lever and correct as necessary.
Also, refer to
CHART C-2C facing page "Diagnostic
Aids". If no vacuum leaks or other cause of
excessive air into the intake are found, it may be
necessary
to replace the TB to correct the low idle
speed problem. Refer to
"TB Replacement" in this
section.
If counts in Step 6 are too high, check for damaged
throttle lever or airflow restriction by the
TB. If no
problem is evident, remove inlet air
duct at the TB,
and
clean residue from inside of TB bore and from
edges of TB using carburetor cleaner and a shop
towel. (Do Not use a cleaner that contains methyl
ethyl ketone.
It is an extremely strong solvent, and
not necessary for this type of deposit). Re-check
"Scan tool" lAC valve counts, per the preceding
procedure.
If counts are still too high it may be necessary to
replace the
lAC valve or the TB assembly, If no
vacuum leaks are indicated
or engine loads are
present.
Minimum Throttle Body (TB) Position
(Non-Adjustable)
\fl CAUTION:
VI • It is extremely unlikely that this adjustment will
ever be necessary on a TB that has not been
tampered
with after production! If idle
revolution per minute is low, you may need
to
replace the TB to correct the low idle speed.

6F-2 ENGINE EXHAUST (V6 3.2L)
When inspecting or replacing exhaust system
components, make sure there is adequate
clearance
from all points on the underbody to prevent over­
heating the
floor pan and possible damage to the
passenger
compartment insulation and trim materials.
Check complete exhaust system and nearby body
areas and rear compartment lid for broken, damaged,
missing
or mispositioned parts, open seams, holes,
loose
connections or other deterioration which could
permit exhaust fumes to seep into the rear
compartment or passenger compartment. Dust or
water in the rear compartment may be an indication of
a problem in one of these areas. Any faulty areas
should be corrected immediately.
HANGERS
Various types of hangers are used to support exhaust
system(s). These
include conventional rubber straps,
rubber rings, and rubber
blocks.
The installation of exhaust system supports is very
important,
as improperly installed supports can cause
annoying vibrations
which can be difficult to diagnose.
THREE WAY CATAL VTIC CONVERTER
The three way catalytic converter is an emission
control device added to the exhaust system to reduce
pollutants from the exhaust gas stream.
W CAUTION:
VI • The catalytic converter requires the use of
unleaded fuel only.
Periodic
maintenance of the exhaust system is not
required. If the vehicle is raised for other service, it is
advisable to check the condition of the complete
exhaust system.
A
dual bed monolith catalytic converter is used in
combination
with three way catalytic converter.
Catalytic Types:
Three
way (Reduction/Oxidation) catalyst
The catalyst coating on the three way (reduction)
converter contains
platinum and rhodium which
lowers the levels of oxide of nitrogen (NOx) as well as
hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (Co).
GASKET
The gasket must be replaced whenever a new exhaust
pipe,
muffler or catalytic converter is installed.
