Test Description

Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the Diagnostic Table.

  1. The On-Board Diagnostic (OBD II) System Check prompts the technician to complete some basic checks and store the Freeze Frame and Failure Records data on the scan tool if applicable. This creates an electronic copy of the data taken when the malfunction occurred. The information is then stored on the scan tool for later reference.
  2. If the conditions for the test as described above are met, a DTC P0324 will set and MIL will illuminate.
  3. If the engine has an internal knock or audible noise that causes a knocking type noise on the engine block, the knock sensor may be responding to the noise.
  4. The replacement ECM must be reprogrammed. Refer to the latest Techline procedure for ECM reprogramming.
