Test VER-2

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 a Smart Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM), secret key data must also be updated to enable engine starting.
  1. Inspect vehicle to ensure all engine components are connected. Reassemble and reconnect components as necessary. If test is being performed after performing a repair that did not involve a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) test, go to next step. If test is being performed after performing a repair that involved a DTC test, go to step  3.
  2. Check if initial symptom still exists. If initial or another symptom exists, repair is not complete. Check for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) that apply to symptom. Go to ON-VEHICLE TESTING  for diagnosis by symptom. If initial symptom no longer exists and no DTCs are present, test is complete.
  3. If repair procedure did not include replacing PCM, go to next step. If PCM has been replaced and has already been programmed, go to next step. If PCM has been replaced but has not been programmed, connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located below driver's side of instrument panel. Using scan tool, enter correct VIN and mileage into PCM. Using scan tool manufacturer's instructions, clear DTCs from ABS and SRS modules. For more information, see PROGRAMMING in SYSTEM & COMPONENT TESTING article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE. After PCM is programmed, go to next step.
  4. Road test vehicle for at least 5 minutes. If repair involved A/C relay control circuit, ensure A/C is on during road test. Road test vehicle at a speed of at least 40 MPH at some point during road test. Stop vehicle. Turn engine off for at least 10 seconds. Start engine and continue road test. Ensure transmission shifts through all gears. After road test, turn engine off and go to next step.
  5. Recheck for DTCs. If any DTCs exist, diagnose and repair as necessary. If no DTCs exist, repair is complete.
