Test VER-3

NOTE: If replacing Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the correct vehicle mileage and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) must be programmed into PCM to prevent Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) from being stored in Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) module and Air Bag Control Module (ACM). If replacing PCM and vehicle is equipped with a Smart Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM), secret key data must also be updated to enable engine starting.
  1. Inspect vehicle to ensure all engine components are connected. Reassemble and reconnect components as necessary. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC), if not previously done. Go to next step.
  2. If repair procedure did not include replacing PCM, go to next step. If PCM has been replaced and has already been programmed, go to next step. If PCM has been replaced but has not been programmed, program PCM and clear DTCs. See PROGRAMMING . After PCM is programmed, go to next step.
  3. Start engine. Check generator output (full field). Raise engine speed to 2000 RPM for at least 30 seconds. Allow engine to idle. Turn ignition off. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool, retrieve DTCs. If no DTCs are present, repair is complete. If any DTCs are present, perform appropriate diagnostic test(s). See DTC MESSAGES & CODES  table under DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS.
