Diagnostic Procedure

  1. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ECM 116-pin harness connector. For ECM location, see Figure. Remove instrument cluster. Disconnect instrument cluster 24-pin harness connector M24. Check continuity of White/Blue wire between instrument cluster harness connector M24 terminal No. 13 and ECM harness connector terminal No. 86. See Figure and Fig 1 . Also, check circuit for short to voltage. If problem is found, go to next step. If no problem is found, go to step  3.
  2. Check following:
    • Check for poor, loose, corroded or damage to terminal connections in in-line harness connectors F23 and M32. See ENGINE PERFORMANCE in SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article in ELECTRICAL.
    • Check for open or short in circuits between ECM and instrument cluster.
    If problem is found, repair as necessary. After repair, repeat appropriate DTC confirmation test.
  3. Reconnect all harness connectors. Check speedometer operation. If speedometer operates properly, go to step  5. If speedometer does not operate properly, go to next step.
  4. Check following:
    • Check for poor, loose, corroded or damage to terminal connections in in-line harness connectors E1 and M1. See ENGINE PERFORMANCE in SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article in ELECTRICAL.
    • Check for poor, loose, corroded or damage to terminal connections in in-line harness connectors B50 and M70.
    • Check for open or short in circuits between instrument cluster and ABS actuator and electric unit.
    • Check for open in circuits between ground and instrument cluster.
    If problem is found, repair as necessary. After repair, repeat appropriate DTC confirmation test.
  5. No problem is indicated at this time. Problem may be intermittent. See INTERMITTENTS in TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES article.
