WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
IMPORTANT:
You must perform the Circuit/System Testing in order to verify the integrity of the exhaust differential pressure sensor circuits before proceeding with Component Testing.
- Ignition OFF, remove the exhaust differential pressure sensor.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 3 and the corresponding terminal of the exhaust differential pressure sensor.
- Install a jumper wire between the low reference circuit terminal 1 of the exhaust differential pressure sensor and ground.
- Install a jumper wire at terminal 2 of the exhaust differential pressure sensor.
- Connect a DMM between the jumper wire from terminal 2 of the exhaust differential pressure sensor and ground.
- Ignition ON, with the J 23738-A
or J 35555
connected to the exhaust differential pressure sensor rear pressure port, slowly apply vacuum while monitoring the voltage on the DMM. See Special Tools
. The voltage should vary between 4.9-0.4 volts without any spikes or dropouts.
- If the voltage is erratic, replace the exhaust differential pressure sensor.
