Powertrain Verification Test VER-6

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 Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM), secret key data must also be updated to enable engine starting. See PROGRAMMING  .
  1. Inspect vehicle to ensure all engine components are connected. Reassemble and reconnect components as necessary. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC).
  2. Start engine and let it idle. Turn off all accessories. Ensure transmission is in Park. Using scan tool, select SYSTEM TESTS, then LDP MONITOR TEST. Follow instructions on scan tool screen.
    NOTE: Engine must remain at idle with shift lever in Park, and throttle at idle position when performing LDP monitor test. This test will only store a small leak DTC to indicate there is a problem with system. System failure may have been caused by a large leak, but PCM will only set small leak DTC to indicate that a failure occurred during test.
    NOTE: LDP MONITOR TEST MODE is used when performing this test to verify repairs and check operation of leak detection pump system. When performing this test, operating mode of Powertrain Control Module (PCM) will be changed. It is critical that LDP monitor test mode not be interrupted. If LDP dealer test mode is interrupted, PCM will remain in changed mode. This will cause PCM to illuminate MIL for 8-10 miles of driving and no DTCs will be stored in PCM. Clearing DTCs from PCM will not change this condition. If a vehicle is found with PCM stuck in this changed mode, LDP monitor test should be performed in its entirety so proper PCM operating mode may be obtained.
  3. If a DTC for a small leak is set, repair is not complete. Check for related technical service bulletins and return to diagnostic test from which you came. If any other DTC exists, perform appropriate diagnostic test(s). See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS  . If LDP monitor passed, test is complete.
