1993 Chevrolet Sportvan G30, Van Passenger, 7.4 NSECTION Trouble Code Identification
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 1994 GMC Vandura Special, 1994 GMC Vandura, 1994 GMC Rally Camper Special, 1994 GMC Rally, and 1994 GMC Forward Control. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Trouble codes retrieved from PCM may be either engine or transmission related. Only engine-related codes are covered in this article. For transmission-related codes, see the AUTO TRANS DIAGNOSIS - 4L60-E & 4L80-E article in this section. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)Β IDENTIFICATION table to determine if code is engine or transmission related.
- The DEC system codes indicate failure of a specific sensor and/or circuit. Sensor/circuit diagnosis may indicate replacement of PCM. DTC 51 indicates PROM is either improperly installed or has failed.
- If PCM is replaced at any point during diagnostic testing and if condition is still not corrected after replacing PCM, the following may be the cause:
- An incorrect PCM or PROM application may cause a malfunction, which may or may not set a code.
- The PCM connector may be the problem. Connector terminals may have to be removed from connector to be checked properly.
- PROM failure. Although the PROM rarely fails, it could be the cause of the problem.
- Replacement PCM may be faulty.
- Intermittent problem. Make a careful physical inspection of affected sensor/circuit.
- A shorted solenoid, coil relay, or harness may be the cause of PCM failure. Use Short Circuit Tester (J-34636) to check for short circuits.
