Powertrain Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Type Definitions (See: Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions/Powertrain Diagnostic Trouble Code

(DTC) Type Definitions)

Scan Tool Reference

Control Module References (See: Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning) for scan tool information

Special Tools

* J 26792 - Spark Tester

* For equivalent regional tools, refer to Special Tools (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Tools and Equipment).

Circuit/System Verification

1. Engine idling at the normal operating temperature, there should be no abnormal engine noise.

瀚慖f there is an abnormal engine noise, refer to Symptoms - Engine Mechanical (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Testing and

Inspection/Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures/Symptoms - Engine Mechanical).

2. Verify that no other DTCs are set.

瀚慖f a DTC is set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle (See: Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions/Diagnostic Trouble

Code (DTC) List - Vehicle).

3. Observe the scan tool Misfire Current Cyl. 1-6 parameters. The Misfire Current Counters should not be incriminating.

4. Engine idling, perform the cylinder power balance test with a scan tool to isolate the misfiring cylinder. The engine speed should change

when each injector is disabled.

5. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the

conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Verify that the following conditions do not exist:

* Vacuum hose splits, kinks, and incorrect connections

* Engine vacuum leaks

* Crankcase ventilation system for vacuum leaks

* Fuel pressure that is too low or too high-Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis (LF1 China) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and

Air Induction/Fuel Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel System Diagnosis (China))Fuel System Diagnosis (LF1 Except China) (See:

Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air Induction/Fuel Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel System Diagnosis (Except China))Fuel

System Diagnosis (LAU China) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air Induction/Fuel Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel

System Diagnosis (China))Fuel System Diagnosis (LAU Except China) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air

Induction/Fuel Pump/Testing and Inspection/Fuel System Diagnosis (Except China)).

* Contaminated Fuel-Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Special Tool) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and

Air Induction/Fuel/Testing and Inspection/Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Special Tool))Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel

Diagnosis (Without Special Tool) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component

Tests and General Diagnostics/Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Without Special Tool)).

* Exhaust system restrictions

瀚慖f you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary.

2. Ignition OFF, remove the T8 ignition coil of the misfiring cylinder, but leave the electrical connector connected.

3. Inspect the ignition coil boot for the following conditions:

* Holes

* Tears

* Carbon tracking

* Oil contamination

* water intrusion

瀚慖f you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary.

4. Install the J 26792 - Spark Tester to the boot of the appropriate T8 ignition coil and ground.
