Circuit/System Testing
NOTE:
You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.
- Verify that debris is not blocking the airflow through the CAC.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B65 Intake Manifold Pressure and Air Temperature Sensor.
- Ignition OFF, and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 1 or A and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
- Ignition ON, verify the scan tool IAT Sensor 2 parameter is colder than -39°C (-38°F).
- If warmer than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 2 or B for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
- Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 2 or B and ground. Verify the scan tool IAT Sensor 2 parameter is warmer than 142°C (288°F).
- If colder than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the K20 ECM.
- If the circuits test normal, test or replace the B65 Intake Manifold Pressure and Air Temperature Sensor.
CAUTION:
Do NOT use a test lamp to test the continuity of the circuit. Damage to the control module may occur due to excessive current draw.
NOTE:
If the fuse in the jumper wire opens, the signal circuit is shorted to a voltage and the sensor may be damaged.
