Pinpoint Test AAA: No Start With Spout Connector Disconnected

(REMOTE MOUNTED ICM)

1. Check For Codes Perform QUICK TEST. See TESTS W/CODES - EEC-IV (3.8L) article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section. If diagnostic trouble codes are present, service codes as required. If codes are not present, go to next step.
2. Check Battery Turn ignition on. Check battery voltage. If battery voltage is less than 12 volts, service battery as necessary. If battery voltage is more than 12 volts, go to next step.
3. Check For PIP Signal Turn ignition off. Connect EEC-IV Diagnostic Cable (007-00097) to EEC-IV Breakout Box (T83L-50-EECIV), negative battery terminal and ICM. Leave B+ lead of diagnostic cable disconnected. See Figure. Ensure PIP OPEN/NORMAL/SPOUT OPEN switch is in NORMAL position. Apply DI overlay on breakout box. Ensure SPOUT in-line connector is disconnected.

Turn ignition on. Put DVOM on AC voltage scale. Crank engine while measuring voltage between J15 (PIP) and J7 (B -). If AC voltage is 3.0-8.5 volts, replace ICM. If AC voltage is not 3.0-8.5 volts, go to next step.

4) Check PIP Signal From PIP Sensor Connect diagnostic cable to CMP sensor and sensor connector. Turn switch to PIP OPEN position. Crank engine while measuring voltage between J7 (B -) and J41 (PIP B). If AC voltage is 3.0-8.5 volts, repair open in PIP circuit between ICM and CMP sensor. If AC voltage is not 3.0-8.5 volts, check CMP wiring harness connector. Repair as necessary. If connector is okay, replace CMP sensor.
