Precautions
Before servicing any vehicle, please be sure to read all of the following precautions, which deal with personal safety, prevention of Print
component damage, and important points to take into consideration when servicing a motor vehicle:

Never open, service or drain the radiator or cooling system when the engine is hot; serious burns can occur from the steam and hot coolant.
Observe all applicable safety precautions when working around fuel. Whenever servicing the fuel system, always work in a well-ventilated area. Do
not allow fuel spray or vapors to come in contact with a spark, open flame, or excessive heat (a hot drop light, for example). Keep a dry chemical fire
extinguisher near the work area. Always keep fuel in a container specifically designed for fuel storage; also, always properly seal fuel containers to
avoid the possibility of fire or explosion. Refer to the additional fuel system precautions later in this section.
Fuel injection systems often remain pressurized, even after the engine has been turned OFF . The fuel system pressure must be relieved before
disconnecting any fuel lines. Failure to do so may result in fire and/or personal injury.
Brake fluid often contains polyglycol ethers and polyglycols. Avoid contact with the eyes and wash your hands thoroughly after handling brake fluid.
If you do get brake fluid in your eyes, flush your eyes with clean, running water for 15 minutes. If eye irritation persists, or if you have taken brake
fluid internally, IMMEDIATELY seek medical assistance.
The EPA warns that prolonged contact with used engine oil may cause a number of skin disorders, including cancer. You should make every effort
to minimize your exposure to used engine oil. Protective gloves should be worn when changing oil. Wash your hands and any other exposed skin
areas as soon as possible after exposure to used engine oil. Soap and water, or waterless hand cleaner should be used.
All new vehicles are now equipped with an air bag system, often referred to as a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) or Supplemental Inflatable
Restraint (SIR) system. The system must be disabled before performing service on or around system components, steering column, instrument panel
components, wiring and sensors. Failure to follow safety and disabling procedures could result in accidental air bag deployment, possible personal
injury and unnecessary system repairs.
Always wear safety goggles when working with, or around, the air bag system. When carrying a non-deployed air bag, be sure the bag and trim
cover are pointed away from your body. When placing a non-deployed air bag on a work surface, always face the bag and trim cover upward, away
from the surface. This will reduce the motion of the module if it is accidentally deployed. Refer to the additional air bag system precautions later in this
section.
Clean, high quality brake fluid from a sealed container is essential to the safe and proper operation of the brake system. You should always buy the
correct type of brake fluid for your vehicle. If the brake fluid becomes contaminated, completely flush the system with new fluid. Never reuse any
brake fluid. Any brake fluid that is removed from the system should be discarded. Also, do not allow any brake fluid to come in contact with a painted
surface; it will damage the paint.
Never operate the engine without the proper amount and type of engine oil; doing so WILL result in severe engine damage.
Timing belt maintenance is extremely important. Many models utilize an interference-type, non-freewheeling engine. If the timing belt breaks, the
valves in the cylinder head may strike the pistons, causing potentially serious (also time-consuming and expensive) engine damage. Refer to the
maintenance interval charts for the recommended replacement interval for the timing belt, and to the timing belt section for belt replacement and
inspection.
Disconnecting the negative battery cable on some vehicles may interfere with the functions of the on-board computer system(s) and may require
the computer to undergo a relearning process once the negative battery cable is reconnected.
When servicing drum brakes, only disassemble and assemble one side at a time, leaving the remaining side intact for reference.
Only an MVAC-trained, EPA-certified automotive technician should service the air conditioning system or its components.

Diagnosis & Testing Print

Load Test

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the Precautions Section.


2. With the engine running, turn on the blower motor and the high beams (or other electrical accessories to place a load on the charging system).
3. Increase and hold engine speed to 2000 rpm.
4. Measure the voltage reading at the battery.
5. The voltage should increase at least 0.5 volts from the voltage test. If the voltage does not meet specifications, the charging system is
malfunctioning.
faulty wiring and other problems can cause the charging system to malfunction. Many automotive parts stores have alternator bench testers
available for use by customers. An alternator bench test is the most definitive way to determine the condition of your alternator.

No Load Test

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the Precautions Section.


2. Connect a tachometer to the engine.
CAUTION
Ensure that the transmission is in Park and the emergency brake is set. Blocking a wheel is optional and an added safety measure.

3. Turn off all electrical loads (radio, blower motor, wipers, etc.)
4. Start the engine and increase engine speed to approximately 1500 rpm.
5. Measure the voltage reading at the battery with the engine holding a steady 1500 rpm. Voltage should have raised at least 0.5 volts, but no more
than 2.5 volts.
6. If the voltage does not go up more than 0.5 volts, the alternator is not charging. If the voltage goes up more than 2.5 volts, the alternator is
overcharging.
NOTE
Usually under and overcharging is caused by a defective alternator, or its related parts (regulator), and replacement will fix the problem; however,
faulty wiring and other problems can cause the charging system to malfunction. Many automotive parts stores have alternator bench testers
available for use by customers. An alternator bench test is the most definitive way to determine the condition of your alternator.

7. If the voltage is within specifications, proceed to the next test.

Voltage Test

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the Precautions Section.


2. Make sure the engine is OFF , and turn the headlights on for 15-20 seconds to remove any surface charge from the battery.

Exhaust System
Catalytic Converter Print

Description & Operation


The catalytic converter is a muffler-like container built into the exhaust system. The catalyst element consists of individual pellets or a honeycomb
monolithic substrate coated with a noble metal such as platinum, palladium, rhodium or a combination. When the exhaust gases come into contact with
the catalyst, it changes residual HC, CO and NOx in the exhaust gas into CO 2 , H 2 O and N, before the exhaust gas is discharged into the atmosphere.

Diagnosis & Testing


The air bag or Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is a safety device designed to be used in conjunction with the seat belt. Its purpose is to Print
help protect the driver in an impact exceeding a certain set limit. The system consists of the air bag module(s), impact sensors, a clockspring
and a dedicated air bag control module.

The air bag is a fabric bag or balloon with an explosive inflator unit attached. The system employs impact sensors and a safing sensor, as well as an
inflator circuit and control module.

When the control unit receives the sensor signals, power is supplied to the inflator circuit, either from the battery or backup system. A small heater
causes a chemical reaction in the igniter; the non-toxic gas from the chemical mixture expands very rapidly (in milliseconds), filling the bag and forcing it
through the cover pad. Since all this is happening very rapidly, the expanding bag should reach the occupant before he/she reaches the steering
wheel/dashboard during a frontal collision. The chemical reaction is complete by the time the air bag is fully inflated; as the occupant hits the bag, the gas
is allowed to escape slowly through vents in the back of the bag.

Precautions
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable before beginning any airbag system component diagnosis, testing, removal, or installation Print
procedures. Allow system capacitor to discharge for two minutes before beginning any component service. This will disable the airbag
system. Failure to disable the airbag system may result in accidental airbag deployment, personal injury, or death.

Do not place an intact undeployed airbag face down on a solid surface. The airbag will propel into the air if accidentally deployed and may result in
personal injury or death.

When carrying or handling an undeployed airbag, the trim side (face) of the airbag should be pointing towards the body to minimize possibility of injury if
accidental deployment occurs. Failure to do this may result in personal injury or death.

Replace airbag system components with OEM replacement parts. Substitute parts may appear interchangeable, but internal differences may result in
inferior occupant protection. Failure to do so may result in occupant personal injury or death.

Wear safety glasses, rubber gloves, and long sleeved clothing when cleaning powder residue from vehicle after an airbag deployment. Powder residue
emitted from a deployed airbag can cause skin irritation. Flush affected area with cool water if irritation is experienced. If nasal or throat irritation is
experienced, exit the vehicle for fresh air until the irritation ceases. If irritation continues, see a physician.

Do not use a replacement airbag that is not in the original packaging. This may result in improper deployment, personal injury, or death.

The factory installed fasteners, screws and bolts used to fasten airbag components have a special coating and are specifically designed for the airbag
system. Do not use substitute fasteners. Use only original equipment fasteners listed in the parts catalog when fastener replacement is required.

During, and following, any child restraint anchor service, due to impact event or vehicle repair, carefully inspect all mounting hardware, tether straps,
and anchors for proper installation, operation, or damage. If a child restraint anchor is found damaged in any way, the anchor must be replaced. Failure
to do this may result in personal injury or death.

Deployed and non-deployed airbags may or may not have live pyrotechnic material within the airbag inflator.

Do not dispose of driver/passenger/curtain airbags or seat belt tensioners unless you are sure of complete deployment. Refer to the Hazardous Substance
Control System for proper disposal.

Dispose of deployed airbags and tensioners consistent with state, provincial, local, and federal regulations.

After any airbag component testing or service, do not connect the battery negative cable. Personal injury or death may result if the system test is not
performed first.

If the vehicle is equipped with the Occupant Classification System (OCS), do not connect the battery negative cable before performing the OCS
Verification Test using the scan tool and the appropriate diagnostic information. Personal injury or death may result if the system test is not performed
properly.

Never replace both the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) and the Occupant Classification Module (OCM) at the same time. If both require replacement,
replace one, then perform the Airbag System test before replacing the other.

Both the ORC and the OCM store Occupant Classification System (OCS) calibration data, which they transfer to one another when one of them is
replaced. If both are replaced at the same time, an irreversible fault will be set in both modules and the OCS may malfunction and cause personal injury
or death.

If equipped with OCS, the Seat Weight Sensor is a sensitive, calibrated unit and must be handled carefully. Do not drop or handle roughly. If dropped or
damaged, replace with another sensor. Failure to do so may result in occupant injury or death.

If equipped with OCS, the front passenger seat must be handled carefully as well. When removing the seat, be careful when setting on floor not to drop. If
dropped, the sensor may be inoperative, could result in occupant injury, or possibly death.

If equipped with OCS, when the passenger front seat is on the floor, no one should sit in the front passenger seat. This uneven force may damage the
sensing ability of the seat weight sensors. If sat on and damaged, the sensor may be inoperative, could result in occupant injury, or possibly death.

Testing & Inspection


The purpose of the shock absorber is simply to limit the motion of the spring during compression and
rebound cycles. If the vehicle is not equipped with these motion dampers, the up and down motion would multiply until the vehicle was alternately trying
to leap off the ground and to pound itself into the pavement.

Contrary to popular rumor, the shocks do not affect the ride height of the vehicle. This is controlled by other suspension components such as springs and
tires. Worn shock absorbers can affect handling; if the front of the vehicle is rising or falling excessively, the -footprint- of the tires changes on the
pavement and steering is affected.

The simplest test of the shock absorber is simply push down on one corner of the unladen vehicle and release it. Observe the motion of the body as it is
released. In most cases, it will come up beyond it original rest position, dip back below it and settle quickly to rest. This shows that the damper is
controlling the spring action. Any tendency to excessive pitch (up-and-down) motion or failure to return to rest within 2-3 cycles is a sign of poor function
within the shock absorber. Oil-filled shocks may have a light film of oil around the seal, resulting from normal breathing and air exchange. This should
NOT be taken as a sign of failure, but any sign of thick or running oil definitely indicates failure. Gas filled shocks may also show some film at the shaft; if
the gas has leaked out, the shock will have almost no resistance to motion.
Fig. When fluid is seeping out of the shock absorber, it-s time to replace the shock

While each shock absorber can be replaced individually, it is recommended that they be changed as a pair (both front or both rear) to maintain equal
response on both sides of the vehicle. Chances are quite good that if one has failed, its mate is weak also.

4-Wheel Anti-Lock Brake System


Actuator Print

Solenoid
Removal & Installation
The actuator contains the solenoid control valves, pump and motor, reservoirs for temporary collection of brake fluid released from the lines as well as
check and relief valves. The actuator is located at the right front of the engine compartment.

The relays and solenoids are controlled by the ECU. Under normal braking conditions, the solenoids are in the open or pressure-build position, allowing
brake fluid to pass proportional to pedal pressure. During anti-lock function, the solenoids are commanded into positions to either hold or release brake
fluid line pressures as required. When anti-lock function is no longer needed, the solenoids reset to the normal position. Additionally, if the ECU detects a
system fault, the solenoids are immediately set to the normal or default position.

General Information
These vehicles are equipped with either a standard antilock braking system or antilock braking system with traction control. Print
The following components are involved in the operation of the above systems.

Electronic brake control module (EBCM) - The EBCM controls the system functions and detects failures. The EBCM contains the following components:

System relay - The system relay is internal to the EBCM. The system relay is energized when the ignition is ON. The system relay supplies battery
positive voltage to the solenoid valves and to the pump motor. This voltage is referred to as system voltage.
Solenoids - The solenoids are commanded ON and OFF by the EBCM to operate the appropriate valves in the brake pressure modulator valve
(BPMV).

Brake pressure modulator valve (BPMV) - The BPMV uses a 3-circuit configuration to control the left front wheel, the right front wheel, and the combined
rear wheels. The BPMV directs fluid to the left front and right front wheels independently. The BPMV directs fluid to the two rear wheels on a single
hydraulic circuit. The BPMV contains the following components.

Pump motor
Three isolation valves
Three dump valves
A front low-pressure accumulator
A rear low-pressure accumulator

(12) Left Front Dump Valve
(13) Left Front Brake
(14) Accumulator
(15) Right Front Brake
(16) Right Front Dump Valve
(17) Right Front Isolation Valve
(18) Damper

Wheel Speed Sensors (WSS) - As the front wheels spin, toothed rings located at each wheel hub interrupt magnetic fields in the wheel speed sensors.
This causes each wheel speed sensor to generate an AC signal. The EBCM uses these AC signals to calculate the wheel speed. The wheel speed sensors
Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) - The input signal for rear wheel speed originates at the VSS. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) receives rear wheel speed
input from the VSS and supplies this information to the EBCM.

Traction control switch (w/NW7) - The TCS is manually disabled or enabled using the traction control switch. The TCS can be programmed to be
automatically enabled or disabled when the ignition is turned ON. The factory default is for the TCS to be automatically enabled. Refer to Programming
the Traction Control Automatic Engagement Feature.

Initialization Sequence

The EBCM performs one initialization test each ignition cycle. The initialization of the EBCM occurs when the following conditions are met:

The ignition is ON
The bulb check has been completed
Vehicle speed is greater than 4 mph (6 km/h)

The initialization sequence briefly cycles each solenoid and the pump motor to verify proper operation of the components. The EBCM sets one or more
DTCs in accordance with any malfunction that is detected.

The EBCM defines a drive cycle as the completion of the initialization sequence.

Anti-Lock Brake System

When wheel slip is detected during a brake application, the ABS enters antilock mode. During antilock braking, hydraulic pressure in the individual wheel
circuits is controlled to prevent any wheel from slipping. A separate hydraulic line and specific solenoid valves are provided for each wheel. The ABS can
decrease, hold, or increase hydraulic pressure to each wheel brake. The ABS cannot, however, increase hydraulic pressure above the amount which is
transmitted by the master cylinder during braking.

During antilock braking, a series of rapid pulsations is felt in the brake pedal. These pulsations are caused by the rapid changes in position of the
individual solenoid valves as the EBCM responds to wheel speed sensor inputs and attempts to prevent wheel slip. These pedal pulsations are present
only during antilock braking and stop when normal braking is resumed or when the vehicle comes to a stop. A ticking or popping noise may also be heard
as the solenoid valves cycle rapidly. During antilock braking on dry pavement, intermittent chirping noises may be heard as the tires approach slipping.
These noises and pedal pulsations are considered normal during antilock operation.

Vehicles equipped with ABS may be stopped by applying normal force to the brake pedal. Brake pedal operation during normal braking is no different
than that of previous non-ABS systems. Maintaining a constant force on the brake pedal provides the shortest stopping distance while maintaining vehicle
stability.

Pressure Hold

The EBCM closes the isolation valve and keeps the dump valve closed in order to isolate the slipping wheel when wheel slip occurs. This holds the
pressure steady on the brake so that the hydraulic pressure does not increase or decrease.

Pressure Decrease

If a pressure hold does not correct the wheel slip condition, a pressure decrease occurs. The EBCM decreases the pressure to individual wheels during
deceleration when wheel slip occurs. The isolation valve is closed and the dump valve is opened. The excess fluid is stored in the accumulator until the
pump can return the fluid to the master cylinder or fluid reservoir.

Pressure Increase

After the wheel slip is corrected, a pressure increase occurs. The EBCM increases the pressure to individual wheels during deceleration in order to reduce
the speed of the wheel. The isolation valve is opened and the dump valve is closed. The increased pressure is delivered from the master cylinder.

Dynamic Rear Proportioning (DRP)

The Dynamic Rear Proportioning (DRP) is a control system that replaces the hydraulic proportioning function of the mechanical proportioning valve in the
base brake system. The DRP control system is part of the operation software in the EBCM. The DRP uses active control with existing ABS in order to
regulate the vehicle's rear brake pressure.

The red brake warning indicator is illuminated when the dynamic rear proportioning function is disabled.

Traction Control System (TCS)

When drive wheel slip is noted while the brake is not applied, the EBCM will enter traction control mode.

The EBCM uses a 5-volt Pulse-Width Modulated (PWM) signal to request the PCM to reduce the amount of torque to the drive wheels. The PCM reduces
torque to the drive wheels by retarding spark timing and by commanding the throttle actuator control. The PCM uses a 5-volt PWM signal in order to
report to the EBCM the amount of torque delivered to the drive wheels.

Brake Warning Indicator

The Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) illuminates the brake warning indicator when the following occurs:

The Body Control Module (BCM) detects that the park brake is engaged. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the BCM requesting illumination.
The EBCM detects a low brake fluid condition and sends a class 2 message to the IPC.
The IPC performs the bulb check.
An ABS-disabling malfunction also disables dynamic rear proportioning (DRP).

ABS Indicator

The IPC illuminates the ABS indicator when the following occurs:

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) detects an ABS-disabling malfunction. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the EBCM requesting
illumination.
The IPC performs the bulb check.
The IPC detects a loss of class 2 communications with the EBCM.

Traction Control Indicators


The EBCM illuminates the TRACTION OFF indicator if any of the following conditions are present.

The EBCM inhibits the traction control system.


The driver manually disables the traction control system by pressing the traction control switch.
The automatic transmission shift lever is in the low (1) position.

The EBCM inhibits the traction control system when a TCS-disabling malfunction occurs, or when the automatic engagement feature is programmed to
disable the TCS when the ignition is turned ON . Refer to Programming the Traction Control Automatic Engagement Feature.

Programming the Traction Control Automatic Engagement

The automatic engagement feature may be programmed so that the traction control system activates or does not activate automatically at the start of
each ignition cycle. In order to change the status of the automatic engagement feature, perform the following procedure:

NOTE
Failure to follow the correct procedure may cause DTC C0283 to set in EBCM memory.

1. Park the vehicle and apply the parking brake.


2. Unlock the ignition and shift the transmission into NEUTRAL (N).
3. Turn the ignition ON , engine OFF .
4. Press and hold the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal.
5. Press and hold the traction assist switch for 5 seconds.
6. Release the brake and accelerator pedals and the traction control switch.
7. Turn the ignition OFF .

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.

Trouble Code: P0442


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.
A loose, missing, or damaged fuel fill cap can cause this DTC to set.
A blockage or restriction in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .

Trouble Code: P1626


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are any unlisted modules. An
intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance
Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.
A loose, missing, or damaged fuel fill cap can cause this DTC to set.
A blockage or restriction in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition occurs
that caused the DTC to set . This may assist in diagnosing the condition.

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device in Computer/Integrating Systems for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are
any unlisted modules. An intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct
Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Trouble Code: U0107


Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
Trouble Code: P0102
Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Trouble Code: U0107


Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:
When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.

A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .

Trouble Code: P1600


Control Module Long Term Memory Performance
Trouble Code: P1626
Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are any unlisted modules. An
intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:
Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

A blockage or restriction in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are any unlisted modules. An
intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Possible Causes:

An overheating condition may cause this DTC to set.


After starting the engine, the ECT should rise steadily to about 90°C (194°F) then stabilize when the thermostat opens.
Use the Temperature vs. Resistance table to test the ECT sensor at various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a skewed sensor. A
skewed sensor could result in poor driveability concerns. Refer to Temperature vs Resistance .
If the condition is suspected of being an intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0118

Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0442


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.
Trouble Code: P0449
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

Trouble Code: P0452


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage

Trouble Code: P0453


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Circuit High Voltage

Trouble Code: P0454


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Circuit Intermittent

Possible Causes:

Scan tool output controls, snapshot, and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To look at the sensor signal under vacuum
conditions, use snapshot and the purge/seal function to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for non-linear
sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.

Possible Causes:

Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Verify that the starting and charging systems are operating properly. Low system voltage can cause this DTC to set.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P1600


Control Module Long Term Memory Performance

Trouble Code: P1621


Control Module Long Term Memory Performance

Trouble Code: P1626


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are any unlisted modules. An
intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

while a catalyst test is in progress.
Driving the vehicle under the conditions outlined in the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) section can verify whether the fault is present.
These conditions may cause a catalytic converter to degrade. Inspect for the following conditions:

An engine misfire
High engine oil or high coolant consumption
Retarded spark timing
A weak or poor spark
A lean fuel mixture
A rich fuel mixture
A damaged oxygen sensor or wiring harness
If an intermittent condition cannot be duplicated, the information included in Freeze Frame data can be useful in determining the vehicle
operating conditions when the DTC was set.

The catalyst may have been temporarily contaminated with a chemical from a fuel additive, fuel contamination, or any of the above conditions.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.
A loose, missing, or damaged fuel fill cap can cause this DTC to set.
A blockage or restriction in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device in Computer/Integrating Systems for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are
any unlisted modules. An intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Class 2 Data Link Malfunction

Possible Causes:

When a malfunction occurs while modules are communicating, a lost communication DTC is set as a current DTC. When the modules stop
communicating the current lost communication DTC is cleared but the history DTC remains. When the modules begin to communicate again, the
module with the open fuse will not be learned by the other modules so U1000 is set current by the other modules. If the malfunction occurs when the
modules are not communicating, only U1000 is set.

Possible Causes:

The diagnostic procedure used for DTC U1500 in OnStar® systems with single module generations of OnStar® differ greatly from previous
generations with 2 modules. While these older generations denoted a failure of the 3-wire bus between the modules by setting a U1500, single module
OnStar® systems use this DTC to denote an internal module failure. The determination of whether a one or 2-module generation of OnStar® is
used should be confirmed. Refer to OnStar Description and Operation .
This DTC may be stored as a history DTC without affecting the operation of the module. If stored only as a history DTC and not retrieved as a
current DTC, do not replace the VCIM.

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
Trouble Code: P0103
Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Throttle Position (TP) Sensor 2 Circuit

Possible Causes:

Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
If this DTC is determined to be intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.

Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module Throttle Actuator Position Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Verify that the starting and charging systems are operating properly. Low system voltage can cause this DTC to set.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost
Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device in Computer/Integrating Systems for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are
any unlisted modules. An intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
Trouble Code: P0101
Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Trouble Code: P0446 Print

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.
A loose, missing, or damaged fuel fill cap can cause this DTC to set.
A blockage or restriction in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition occurs
that caused the DTC to set . This may assist in diagnosing the condition.

Control Module Long Term Memory Performance

Trouble Code: P1626


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost
Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are any unlisted modules. An
intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you

Possible Causes:

When a malfunction occurs while modules are communicating, a lost communication DTC is set as a current DTC. When the modules stop
communicating the current lost communication DTC is cleared but the history DTC remains. When the modules begin to communicate again, the
module with the open fuse will not be learned by the other modules so U1000 is set current by the other modules. If the malfunction occurs when the
modules are not communicating, only U1000 is set.

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module Throttle Actuator Position Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Verify that the starting and charging systems are operating properly. Low system voltage can cause this DTC to set.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Control Module Long Term Memory Performance

Trouble Code: P1626


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device in Computer/Integrating Systems for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are
any unlisted modules. An intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections in Wiring Systems. If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

can help determine how many miles since the DTC set. The Fail Counter and Pass Counter can help determine how many ignition cycles that the
diagnostic test reported a pass and/or a fail. The wait to start indicator illuminates only with the ignition ON and the engine OFF. The wait to start
indicator will not illuminate during post-start glow plug operation. The wait to start indicator will not stay ON for long at higher engine temperatures.

Trouble Code: P0420


Possible Causes:

The catalyst test may abort due to a change in the engine load. Do not change the engine load, ensure the AC is OFF, the coolant fan is not cycling,
while a catalyst test is in progress.
Driving the vehicle under the conditions outlined in the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) section can verify whether the fault is present.
These conditions may cause a catalytic converter to degrade. Inspect for the following conditions:

An engine misfire
High engine oil or high coolant consumption
Retarded spark timing
A weak or poor spark
A lean fuel mixture
A rich fuel mixture
A damaged oxygen sensor or wiring harness
If an intermittent condition cannot be duplicated, the information included in Freeze Frame data can be useful in determining the vehicle
operating conditions when the DTC was set.

The catalyst may have been temporarily contaminated with a chemical from a fuel additive, fuel contamination, or any of the above conditions.

Trouble Code: P0442


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Small Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Trouble Code: P0451 Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Trouble Code: P0446 Print

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

conditions, use snapshot and the purge/seal function to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for non-linear
sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected
A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.

A blockage or restriction in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition occurs
that caused the DTC to set . This may assist in diagnosing the condition.

Vehicle Speed Output Circuit

Possible Causes:

Important: Remove any debris from the PCM connector surfaces before servicing the PCM. Inspect the PCM connector gaskets when
diagnosing/replacing the PCM. Ensure that the gaskets are installed correctly. The gaskets prevent water intrusion into the PCM. Using Freeze Frame
and/or Failure Records data may aid in locating an intermittent condition. If you cannot duplicate the DTC, the information included in the Freeze
Frame and/or Failure Records data can aid in determining how many miles since the DTC set. The Fail Counter and Pass Counter can also aid
determining how many ignition cycles the diagnostic reported a pass and/or a fail. Operate the vehicle within the same freeze frame conditions (RPM,

Control Module Long Term Memory Performance

Trouble Code: P1626


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are any unlisted modules. An
intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.

Throttle Body Airflow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is misaligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range, then should
independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 170 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ground circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC
sets. A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit can cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability
concern before this DTC sets. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect the air induction system for any water intrusion. The water rapidly cools the hot sensing elements in the sensor causing a false indication of
excessive airflow. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set.
A poor connection in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set.

Possible Causes:

DTC P0116 may set if the vehicle uses an aftermarket engine block heater.

Trouble Code: P0117


Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage

Possible Causes:

An overheating condition may cause this DTC to set.


After starting the engine, the ECT should rise steadily to about 90°C (194°F) then stabilize when the thermostat opens.
Use the Temperature vs. Resistance table to test the ECT sensor at various temperature levels to evaluate the possibility of a skewed sensor. A
skewed sensor could result in poor driveability concerns. Refer to Temperature vs Resistance .
If the condition is suspected of being an intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0118


Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor Circuit High Voltage

Possible Causes:

If a short to a separate 5-volt source occurs, this DTC may set.

Trouble Code: P0120


Throttle Position (TP) Sensor 1 Circuit

Possible Causes:

Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. When this occurs, multiple DTCs could be set with no circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.

To help locate intermittent leaks using the J 41413-200 , move all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT .
Individual components can be isolated and tested using J 41413-300 .
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. By using the scan tool Purge/Seal function to create a
vacuum, seal the system and observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay. This type of leak may be detected.

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using a purge solenoid valve command with
a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Trouble Code: P0449


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) vent Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0451


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emission System Tester (EEST), pressure can be applied to the
system, then released, while monitoring the FTP sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. Scan tool output controls, snapshot,
and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To test the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use the Quick Snapshot and the
Purge/Seal functions to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for erratic sensor operation. A similar test can
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.
When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool.

conditions, use snapshot and the purge/seal function to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for non-linear
sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emission System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Trouble Code: P0455


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

A fuel fill cap that is left OFF after a fuel fill will cause this DTC to set.
A loose, missing, or damaged fuel fill cap can cause this DTC to set.
A blockage or restriction in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe EVAP canister, or vapor pipe, can cause this DTC to set.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP purge solenoid, purge pipe, or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and repair any
restriction in the EVAP system.
To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move all EVAP components while observing smoke
with the J 41413-SPT .
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition occurs
that caused the DTC to set . This may assist in diagnosing the condition.

Control Module Long Term Memory Performance

Trouble Code: P1626


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
The VTD Passlock parameters can be monitored in the PCM under engine data 2, display with a scan tool.
The scan tool Diagnostic Circuit Check can be used to:

Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Trouble Code: P1631


Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor
Connections . If a repair is necessary, refer to Wiring Repairs or Connector Repairs .

Trouble Code: U0107


Lost communication with Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module

Possible Causes:

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness,
i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
DTC U0107 sets if the TAC module ignition feed circuit is shorted to a B+ supply circuit. The TAC module stays powered-up when the ignition switch
is turned OFF. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the TAC module is powered-up before the PCM. DTC U0107 sets because no communication is
detected by the TAC module from the PCM. Inspect related circuits for being shorted to a B+ supply circuit.
Inspect the TAC module power and ground circuits and the TAC module/PCM serial data circuits for intermittent connections.
Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without any circuit or component
conditions found during diagnostic testing.
When the TAC module detects a problem within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Remember this if you
review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
Possible Causes:

The following conditions may cause the DTC to set:

A poor connection or terminal tension at a GMLAN module


An intermittent open on either high speed GMLAN serial data circuit
An open voltage or ground circuit to a module
An internal module malfunction
A short between the GMLAN serial data circuits
A short to voltage or ground on either of the GMLAN serial data circuits

Throttle Body Air Flow Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the throttle blade for being broken, bent, or missing.


Inspect the TP sensor for proper installation. A sensor that is mis-aligned could set this DTC.
Inspect the throttle actuator control (TAC) module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs may set without
any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.
Physically and visually inspect the throttle body assembly and correct any problems that you observe. Manually move the throttle blade from closed
to wide open throttle (WOT). You should not need to use excess force. The throttle blade should move smoothly through the full range and then
should independently return to a slightly open position.
When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related DTC may set. This is due to the many
redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting
components during testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.
For an intermittent condition, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0101


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Performance

Possible Causes:

Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore at idle or during deceleration may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for any vacuum leak downstream of
the MAF sensor. Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor. Inspect the air induction system for any water
intrusion. Any water that reaches the MAF sensor will skew the sensor and may cause this DTC to set. A wide open throttle acceleration from a stop
should cause the MAF Sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 7-12 g/s at idle to 230 g/s or more at the
time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system. A high resistance of 15
ohms or more on the ignition 1 voltage circuit may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used to calculate the predicted mass air flow value is initially based on the MAP sensor at key ON. When the
engine is running, the BARO value is continually updated near wide open throttle. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the calculated mass air flow value
to be inaccurate and may result in a no start condition. The value shown for the MAP Sensor parameter varies with the altitude. With the ignition ON
and the engine OFF, 101 kPa is the approximate value near sea level. This value will decrease by approximately 3 kPa for every 305 meters (1,000
feet) of altitude. A high resistance on the 5-volt reference circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance on the low reference
circuit of the MAP sensor may cause this DTC to set. If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0102


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency

Possible Causes:

Inspect for the following conditions:

An incorrectly routed harness--Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor in order to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:

The secondary ignition wires or coils


Any solenoids
Any relays
Any motors
Any aftermarket accessories--Refer to Checking Aftermarket Accessories .

A low minimum air rate through the sensor bore may cause this DTC to set at idle or during deceleration. Inspect for any vacuum leaks downstream of
the MAF sensor. A wide open throttle (WOT) acceleration from a stop should cause the MAF Sensor g/s parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly.
This increase should be from 6-12 g/s at idle to 230 g/s or more at the time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in
the induction system or the exhaust system. A resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ground circuit or the ignition 1 circuit of the MAF sensor can
cause this DTC to set.

Trouble Code: P0103


Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit High Frequency

To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emissions System Tester (EEST) to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move
all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT High Intensity White Light.
A condition may exist where a leak in the EVAP system only exists under a vacuum condition. This condition may be detected by using a scan tool
PURGE/SEAL function to seal the EVAP system and create a vacuum. Then observe the FTP parameter for vacuum decay.
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Trouble Code: P0443


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Solenoid Control Circuit

Trouble Code: P0446


Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance

Possible Causes:

When using the electronic emission system tester (EEST) to apply pressure, you can regulate the amount of pressure by activating the remote
switch ON and OFF while observing pressure in the EVAP system using a scan tool. DO NOT use more than 5 inches H2O. More than 5 inches H2O
applied to the EVAP system can cause the canister vent solenoid valve to temporarily remain in the closed position, which could lead to misdiagnosis
in this procedure.
An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged EVAP vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve inlet,
or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
An EVAP canister, vent hose or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using purge solenoid valve command with a
scan tool, will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister
purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent, vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

A restriction in the EVAP canister or vent lines could prevent fuel vapor pressure from bleeding off fast enough. If the vent system cannot bleed off
pressure fast enough, this code can set. When pressure is applied to the system and released, a properly operating system will return to the
atmospheric pressure rapidly. By using a scan tool and the J 41413-200 pressure can be applied to the system, then released, while monitoring the
FTP Sensor parameter to see that pressure can be released within 30 seconds.
An FTP sensor that is skewed or does not have a linear transition from low to high may cause this code to set. A scan tool output controls, snapshot,
be done for the pressure side of the sensor operation by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 while taking a snapshot.
A full fuel tank may cause misdiagnosis.

Trouble Code: P0454


Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Circuit Intermittent

Possible Causes:

Scan tool output controls, snapshot, and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To look at the sensor signal under vacuum
conditions, use snapshot and the purge/seal function to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for non-linear
sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with the J 41413-200 Evaporative
Emissions System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Large Leak Detected

Possible Causes:

To help locate intermittent leaks, use the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emissions System Tester (EEST) to introduce smoke into the EVAP system. Move
all EVAP components while observing smoke with the J 41413-SPT High Intensity White Light. Introducing smoke in 15-second intervals will allow less
pressure into the EVAP system. When the system is less pressurized, the smoke will sometimes escape in a more condensed manner.
A temporary blockage in the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve, purge pipe or EVAP canister could cause an intermittent condition. Inspect and
repair any restriction in the EVAP system.
To improve the visibility of the smoke exiting the EVAP system, observe the suspected leak area from different angles with the J 41413-SPT .
Reviewing the Failure Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition that caused the DTC
to be set occurs. This may assist in diagnosing the condition.
For intermittent conditions, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

Inspect for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
Inspect all related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction.
If the class 2 serial data circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to voltage, then all systems connected to the serial data circuit will not be able to
communicate properly. Systems capable of storing loss of communications DTCs, or the DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix, will have these codes
stored in their memory. If a DTC U1192 is stored in the PCM memory along with the P1626, then a fault occurred at some point after the PCM received
the correct password. The BCM must also be inspected for intermittent operation due to a loss of power or ground to the module itself. After repairing
the cause of DTC 1626, clear all DTCs from the systems capable of storing this DTC and DTC U1192.
Monitor the class 2 serial data circuit for modules which have been or are communicating.
Monitor for loss of communications DTCs with the letter "U" as a prefix: U1001-U1199.
Clear loss of communication DTCs. When a Clear Codes command is issued, all codes, Freeze Frame and Failure Records information is cleared.

The scan tool Class 2 Message Monitor will show the status of each module on the class 2 circuit. A status of Active indicates that the module is
communicating with the scan tool. An Inactive status indicates that the module previously communicated with the scan tool, but is not communicating
currently. The inactive status will only appear if the loss of communication occurs while on the Message Monitor screen. If a module is not listed at all,
then the missing module never successfully established communications with the scan tool or lost communication while on another screen. Refer to
Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device in Computer/Integrating Systems for the complete class 2 data link to determine if there are
any unlisted modules. An intermittent may be caused by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor

Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct

Possible Causes:

Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed by a diagnostic procedure. Clearing DTCs will also clear valuable Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.

If the PCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password and crankshaft variation.
If the BCM is replaced, the PCM must re-learn a valid password.
Check for published service bulletins relating to exhibited symptoms or component operation.
If the vehicle does not start, or starts and stalls:

Turn OFF the ignition and wait at least 5 seconds before trying to restart.
If a fault or tamper has been detected, the BCM will not forward the correct password to the PCM for a period of 10 minutes, even if the condition
is corrected during that time period. This may cause a DTC P1631 to set in the PCM. This timer can be monitored in the Passlock Data parameter of
the scan tool. Once the time has elapsed, the BCM will determine if the condition is still present.

The PCM and BCM parameters can be monitored with a scan tool. The Passlock state and the auto learn timer can be viewed in the Passlock Data
parameter of the scan tool. Inspect the following for preventing the Passlock sensor from communicating with the BCM:

Passlock sensor
Ignition switch assembly
Passlock sensor circuitry
Bent pins at the small Passlock sensor

If this DTC sets along with a DTC B2960, then the problem was caused by malfunctioning Passlock components or circuitry, not the PCM. Inspect all
related wiring and connections including the PCM and BCM connections. These may cause an intermittent malfunction. An intermittent may be caused
by any of the following conditions:

A poor connection
Rubbed through wire insulation
A broken wire inside the insulation

Thoroughly inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing the intermittent complaint. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor

Important: Reprogramming the PCM may cause a communication error between the PCM and the TAC. If the PCM detects a communication error, DTC
U0107 sets. Clear any DTCs from the memory that may have been set by Reprogramming.

DTC U0107 sets if the battery voltage is low. If the customer's concern is slow cranking or no crank because battery voltage is low, ignore DTC
U0107. Clear any DTCs from memory that may have set from the low battery voltage condition.
DTC U0107 sets when there is a short to B+ on the TAC module ground circuit. Inspect the fuses for the circuits that are in the TAC module harness-
-i.e. cruise, brake. An inspection of the fuses may lead you to the circuit that is shorted to the TAC module ground circuit.
