Final Procedure

  1. Inspect vehicle to ensure all engine components are connected. Reassemble and reconnect components as necessary. If all DTCs have been diagnosed and repaired, go to next step. If any DTCs have not been diagnosed, perform appropriate DTC or symptom test and finish diagnosing remaining DTCs as necessary.
    NOTE: A Leak Detection Pump (LDP) dealer test mode is used when performing this test to verify repairs and check operation of the leak detection pump system. When performing this test, the operating mode of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) will be changed. It is critical that the LDP dealer test mode must not be interrupted. If LDP dealer test mode is interrupted, the PCM will remain in the changed mode. This will cause the PCM to illuminate the MIL for 8-10 miles of driving and no DTCs will being stored in the PCM. Clearing the DTCs from the PCM will not change the MIL operation. If a vehicle is found with the PCM stuck in this changed mode, LDP dealer test should be performed in its entirety so proper PCM operating mode may be obtained. LDP dealer test mode will only set a small leak DTC, even if the leak is larger. If this verification test is being performed as a verification for a larger leak repair and LDP dealer test mode set a small leak DTC, this does not mean that the repair performed had any effect on the existing problem.
  2. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). Ensure all accessories are off. Place scan tool in LDP DEALER TEST MODE and follow instructions as displayed on scan tool. If a DTC for a small leak is set, the repair is not complete. Check for related Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) and perform appropriate DTC or symptom test. If any other DTCs were reset, perform appropriate DTC test. If no other DTCs exist, repair is now complete.
