Power Circuits

  1. Using DVOM, check for battery voltage between PCM power terminals and ground. See appropriate POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR TERMINAL IDENTIFICATIONΒ  . See Figure . If battery voltage is not present, check for open fuse or fusible link. If fuse or fusible link is okay, go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition switch to ON position. Using DVOM, check for battery voltage at PCM ignition power terminals. If battery voltage is not present, check IGN fuse. If fuse is okay, check for open circuit between battery, ignition switch, and PCM ignition power terminals. If circuits are okay, check for faulty ignition switch.
