DTC Confirmation Test (Using Generic Scan Tool)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Nissan Altima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Use the following test to check overall function of PNP switch circuit. During this test, DTC may not be confirmed.
CAUTION: DO NOT use ECM ground terminals when measuring voltage.
  1. To check overall function of PNP switch circuit, turn ignition on. Measure voltage between body ground and Green/Red wire (on A/T models) or Green/White wire (on M/T models) at ECM terminal No. 43 (on 2.5L) or No. 44 (on 3.5L) by backprobing. See Figure and Figure .
  2. When transmission is in Park or Neutral, voltage should be about zero volts. On A/T models, when transmission is not in Park or Neutral, battery voltage should exist. On M/T models, when transmission is not in Park or Neutral, voltage should be about 5 volts. On all models, if voltage is as specified, system is okay at this time. If voltage is not as specified, go to DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE .
