Engine Control - Pin Voltage Charts: Introduction

NOTE: Unless stated otherwise in testing procedures, perform all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance. Voltage readings may vary slightly due to battery condition or charging rate.

Pin voltage charts are supplied to reduce diagnostic time. Checking pin voltages at Powertrain Control Module (PCM) determines whether it is receiving and transmitting proper input and output signals. Charts may also help determine if PCM wiring harness is shorted or open.

NOTE: Volvo refers to the PCM as a Engine Control Module (ECM).
