Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the MAF/IAT harness connector at the MAF/IAT sensor.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 5 ohms of resistance between the low reference circuit terminal D and ground.
- If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Ignition ON, verify the scan tool IAT Sensor parameter is less than -39°C (-38°F).
- If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal E for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal E and a ground. Verify the scan tool IAT Sensor parameter is greater than 149°C (300°F).
- If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, test the MAF/IAT sensor. Refer to Component Testing for instructions.
IMPORTANT:
If a short to voltage is found on the IAT signal circuit, the 3A fuse in the jumper wire will open.
