FICM Diagnostic Circuit

The PCM monitors the FICM diagnostic circuit in order to set FICM related DTCs. The FICM diagnostic circuit is a 5 volt circuit that is pulse width modulated by the FICM in order to communicate diagnostic information to the PCM. The FICM Diagnostic Data table indicates the various PWM signals created.
