Diagnostic Aids
Perform this test only when directed by QUICK TEST . To prevent replacing good components, be aware following non-EEC related areas may be cause of problem:
- Technician did not perform brief Wide Open Throttle (WOT) after Dynamic Response Code.
- Faulty mechanical engine components.
- Engine did not go over 2000 RPM during WOT.
This test is only intended to diagnose:
- Throttle movement (minimum 3/4 throttle).
- RPM increase is more than 2000 RPM.
If throttle is snapped open briefly, it may not pass WOT test. Ensure throttle is depressed fully to WOT and engine speed exceeds 2000 RPM.
1) Code 77/538 Displayed: System Failed To Recognize WOT Test Repeat KOER SELF-TEST as follows:
- Activate SELF-TEST.
- Start engine.
- Observe ID Code start of test.
- Observe Dynamic Response Code 1 (Code 0 with STAR tester).
- Perform brief WOT.
- Testing is complete; service code output begins.
Ensure vehicle speed reached 2000 RPM during WOT. If Code 77/538 is present, replace ECA. If Code 77/538 is not present, vehicle has passed dynamic response test. Service other codes if necessary.
