- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate H02S.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition 1 voltage circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the ignition 1 voltage circuit fuse is open, test all components connected to the ignition 1 voltage circuit and replace as necessary.
IMPORTANT: The ignition 1 voltage circuit supplies voltage to other components. Make sure you test all circuits for a short to ground or test all components for being shorted that share the ignition 1 voltage circuit. - Ignition OFF, connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 3 and B+. The test lamp should not illuminate.
- If test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Engine running, verify the test lamp illuminates or flashes.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
