Circuit/System Testing

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the ECM C2 harness connector.
  3. IMPORTANT: A high resistance on any IC circuit can cause a misfire before the DTC sets.
  4. Test the affected IC circuit for the following:
    • Short to voltage
    • Short to ground
    • Open/high resistance
    • If a fault is found, repair the circuit as needed.
  5. Connect the ECM the C2 harness connector.
  6. Exchange the affected ignition coil/module, with the ignition coil/module of a cylinder that is not affected.
  7. Start the engine and observe the scan tool.
    • If the DTC or the misfire transfers with the suspect ignition coil/module, replace that ignition coil/module assembly.
    • If the DTC or the misfire does not transfer with the suspect ignition coil/module, replace the ECM.
