Test 14B - Bus Short To 5 Volts

  1. Turn ignition off. Using external ohmmeter, measure resistance between terminal C30 (Violet/Brown wire) on Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Gray connector and terminal A17 (White/Black wire) on PCM Black connector. PCM is located at right corner of firewall. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between Violet/Brown wire and White/Black wire. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, go to next step.
  2. Measure resistance between terminal C28 (White/Black wire) on PCM Gray connector and terminal A17 (White/Black wire) on PCM Black connector. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between White/Black wires of both connectors. See wiring diagram for clarification. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, replace PCM.
NOTE: For connector terminal identification, refer to CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring diagrams, refer to WIRING DIAGRAMS  . After each repair, perform TEST VER-1A  .
CAUTION: Always turn ignition off prior to disconnecting any module connector.
