Est Emission System Check

NOTE: When test terminal is grounded, the ignition timing will adjust to a fixed position. This will usually cause a timing adjustment that can be verified by a change in engine RPM.
  1. With engine operating at fast idle, note timing change as test terminal is grounded. System is operating properly if timing changes. If timing does not change, proceed to step 2).
  2. Disconnect park/neutral switch and recheck for timing change. If timing changes, problem is either an improperly adjusted or faulty park/neutral switch. If timing does not change, check for grounded wire from terminal "H" of ECM to park/neutral switch. If wire is not grounded, replace ECM.
NOTE: See COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS section for additional information.
