WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Envoy and 2009 Chevrolet TrailBlazer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
The scan tool control of the CMP actuator is inhibited when DTC P0017 sets.
- Operate the vehicle at idle and at various engine speeds and load ranges while observing the Exh. CMP Variance, Desired Exh. CMP, and Exh. CMP Angle parameters with a scan tool.
- The Exh. CMP Variance should remain less than or equal to 1 degree unless the CMP actuator is being commanded. If the CMP actuator is commanded, the Exh. CMP Variance will rise for 1-2 seconds until the Exh. CMP Angle parameter matches the Desired Exh. CMP parameter. The Exh. CMP Variance should again return to less than or equal to 1 degree.
- If the Exh. CMP Variance remains more than 1 degree for more than 3 seconds, continue with the Circuit/System Testing.
