Component Inspection

  1. Check CCV
    1. Ignition "OFF"
    2. Measure resistance between terminals "1" and "2" of the CCV connector.

      Specification: Approx. 15.5-18.5 Ω (20°C (68°F)

    3. Monitor the CCV signal waveform and verify that the ground voltage is less than approx. 0.3V (1) and the surge voltage (2) is between 40 V and 60 V.

    4. Is the CCV normal?

      YES 

      • Substitute with a known-good ECM and check for proper operation.
      • If the problem is corrected, replace ECM and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

      NO 

      • Substitute with a known-good CCV and check for proper operation.
      • If the problem is corrected, replace CCV and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
      NOTE: There is a memory reset function on scan tool that can erase optional parts automatically detected and memorized by ECM. After testing ECM on the vehicle, use this function before reusing the ECM
