Circuit/System Testing

IMPORTANT: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with the Circuit/System Testing.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the MAF/IAT sensor.
  2. Test for less than 5 ohms of resistance between the low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  3. Disconnect the harness connector at the EOT sensor.
  4. Test for less than 5 ohms of resistance between the low reference circuit terminal C and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  5. Disconnect the harness connector at the ECM.
  6. Test for less than 5 ohms of resistance between the IAT signal circuit terminal A and the corresponding terminal C2-67 at the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, repair the high resistance on the signal circuit.
  7. Test for less than 5 ohms of resistance between the EOT signal circuit terminal B and the corresponding terminal C2-65 at the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, repair the high resistance on the signal circuit.
  8. If all circuits test normal, test the IAT sensor. Refer to Component Testing.
    • If the IAT sensor tests normal, replace the engine oil level sensor and/or switch assembly.
