Initiating Engine Basic Setting

  1. When ENGINE BASIC SETTING is initiated, ECM establishes the following conditions:
    • Closed throttle position is blocked
    • EVAP control solenoid valve remains off, preventing purge
    • A/C is turned off
    • EGR control solenoid valve remains off, preventing EGR function
    • ECM ignores dynamic signal from Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor and assumes a constant value of 176°F (80°C).
    • Command is given for Oxygen Sensor (O2S) circuit to learn new values.
  2. Before initiating ENGINE BASIC SETTING:
    • Ensure coolant temperature is at least 185°F (85°C)
    • Ensure accelerator pedal is not pushed down
    • Turn off all electrical accessories
    • Turn off A/C
    • Shift transmission into Park or Neutral.
  3. Retrieve codes. See RETRIEVING CODES. If codes are present, repair faults as necessary. Clear codes. See CLEARING CODES. Start engine and let idle. Select function "04", INITIATE BASIC SETTING. Enter appropriate display group number. Press HELP button for procedure on inputting display group numbers. See information following table for specified values and diagnosis.
