Trouble Shooting

NOTE: If problem is intermittent, check for faulty wiring and components by wiggling wiring harnesses and components (DO NOT vigorously wiggle relays).

Check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). See RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If DTC(s) are set, perform appropriate procedure under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS . If no DTCs are set, go to SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS table.
If ECM is suspected of not receiving an input from a switch or vehicle speed sensor, check input signal circuits. See INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUITS under CIRCUIT TESTS. If problem is still present after all testing, replace ECM.
