Circuit/System Testing

NOTE:

All electrical components and accessories must be turned OFF and allowed to power down.

  1. Verify none of the following conditions exist:
    • Loose clamps, cracks, or other damage in the air intake duct system
    • Splits, kinks or improper connections at the vacuum hoses
    • Vacuum leaks at the intake manifold and throttle body
    • A dirty, restricted, or deteriorating air filter element
    • A leaking, loose, disconnected, or cracked positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve, pipe, or seal
    • A collapsed, restricted, or collapsed air intake duct
    • A misaligned or damaged air intake duct
    • Any objects blocking the air inlet probe of the MAF/IAT Sensor
    • Any contamination or debris on the sensing elements in the probe of the MAF/IAT Sensor
    • A cracked or damaged MAF Sensor housing
    • Any water intrusion in the induction system
    • Any snow or ice build-up at the air cleaner, MAF or MAP Sensors in cold climates
    • Any intake manifold leak
    • A MAP Sensor seal that is leaking, missing, or damaged
    • An Intake Manifold Resonator with a leaking seal, or a cracked or broken housing
    • Missing, restricted or leaking exhaust components - Refer to Symptoms - Engine Exhaust .
    • If a condition exists 

      Repair or replace component as appropriate.

    • If no condition exists 
  2. Ignition OFF, and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down. Disconnect the harness connector at the B74 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor.
  3. Test for less than 2 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 2 or C and ground.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If less than 2 Ω 
  4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 or A and ground.
    • If less than 4.8 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the 5 V reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
      NOTE:

      If the signal circuit is shorted to a voltage the ECM or the MAP Sensor may be damaged.

    • If greater than 5.2 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If between 4.8-5.2 V 
  5. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is less than 0.5 V.
    • If 0.5 V or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal 3 or B and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If less than 0.5 V 
  6. Ignition OFF, install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 or B and the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 or A.
  7. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool MAP Sensor voltage parameter is greater than 4.5 V.
    • If 4.5 V or less 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Remove the jumper wire, test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 3 or B and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open or high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If greater than 4.5 V 
  8. Test or replace the B74 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor.
