2001 Chevrolet Chevy Express G3500, Van Passenger Extended, 6.5 FSECTION Test Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Pontiac Vibe. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The numbers below refer to the step numbers in the diagnostic procedures.
- 1 - The Diagnostic System Check - Engine Controls prompts the technician to complete some basic checks and store freeze frame data, if applicable. This creates an electronic copy of data taken when fault occurred. Information is then stored in scan tool for later reference.
- 3 - This step checks operation of CMP actuator system. When commanded ON, CMP actuator solenoid advances camshaft, usually causing engine to stall.
- 4 - This step visually inspects operation of CMP actuator solenoid valve. Solenoid plunger and spool valve movement should be smooth and rapid from extended to retracted.
- 7 - This step checks for electrical resistance in wiring and connections of CMP actuator solenoid circuit. Circuit resistance as small as 15 ohms can cause solenoid to malfunction and DTC P1349 to set.
