Circuit/System Description

The engine control module (ECM) has 2 internal 5-volt reference circuits called 5-volt reference 1 and 5-volt reference 2. Each reference circuit provides 5-volt reference circuits for more than one sensor. Therefore, a fault condition on one 5-volt reference circuit will affect the other 5-volt reference circuits connected to that reference circuit. The ECM monitors the voltage on the 5-volt reference circuits.
