Diagnostic Procedures

  1. Perform ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK. See the BASIC TESTING article. After performing OBD system check, go to next step.
  2. Ensure battery is fully charged. Attempt to start engine. If engine cranks, go to next step. If engine does not crank, see the ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM article in the ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT section.
  3. Turn ignition off. Disconnect Blue, 32-pin Body Control Module (BCM) connector C2. Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, check voltage between ground and Blue, 32-pin BCM connector C2 terminal D16 (Dark Blue wire). If voltage is about 5 volts, go to next step. If voltage is not about 5 volts, go to step 6).
  4. Turn ignition off. Reconnect BCM module connector. Turn ignition on. Backprobe BCM harness connector, check frequency between ground and Blue, 32-pin BCM connector C2 terminal D16 (Dark Blue wire). If frequency is 40-60 Hz, go to next step. If frequency is not 40-60 Hz, go to step 8).
  5. Using scan tool, select CLEAR INFO or CLEAR DTCS function to clear DTC P1626. Attempt to start engine. If engine starts and continues to run, see DIAGNOSTIC AIDS. If engine does not start or starts but does not continue to run, go to step 7).
  6. Check for an open, short to ground or short to voltage in fuel enable circuit. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 11). If circuit is okay, go to next step.
  7. Check fuel enable circuit for poor terminal connection at PCM connector. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 11). If connection is okay, go to step 9).
  8. Check for poor terminal connections at BCM module connector. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 11). If terminals are okay, go to step 10).
  9. Replace PCM. Program replacement PCM using required equipment. After replacing PCM, go to step 11).
  10. Replace BCM module. After repair is completed, go to next step.
  11. Using scan tool, CLEAR INFO or CLEAR DTCS function to clear DTC P1554. Using scan tool, select ENG 2 data list. Observe VTD FUEL DISABLE display. If reading indicates inactive, repair is complete. If reading does not indicate inactive, repeat step 2).
