Component Testing

IMPORTANT: You must perform the Circuit System Testing before proceeding with the Component Testing.
  1. Turn ON the ignition with the engine OFF and remove the SCIP sensor.
  2. Install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the 5-volt reference terminal C of the sensor and 5-volt reference.
  3. Install a jumper wire between the low reference terminal A of the sensor and ground.
  4. Install a jumper wire at the signal terminal B of the sensor.
  5. Connect a DMM between the jumper wire from terminal B of the sensor and ground.
  6. Install the J 35555  to the sensor vacuum port. Slowly apply vacuum to the sensor while monitoring the voltage on the DMM. The voltage should vary between 4.9-0.04 volts, without any spikes or dropouts.
    • If the voltage is not within the specified range or is erratic, replace the SCIP sensor.
