Circuit/System Testing

NOTE:

You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the camshaft position sensor.
  2. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, it may take 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 1 Ω on the camshaft position low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  3. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the camshaft position 5 V reference circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the camshaft position signal circuit terminal C and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  5. Ignition OFF, connect a 3A fused jumper wire to the camshaft position signal circuit terminal C.
  6. Ignition ON, momentarily touch the other the other end of the fused jumper wire to the battery negative post. The Camshaft Position Active counter, should increment.
    • If the Camshaft Position Active counter increments, test or replace the camshaft position sensor.
    • If the Camshaft Position Active counter does not increment, replace the ECM.
