Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
KOEO Self-Test
Ensure engine is warmed to normal operating temperature. If engine does not start (or stalls after starting), continue KOEO SELF-TEST. Turn ignition off. Wait 10 seconds. Ensure test equipment is properly attached. Turn ignition on (engine off). Record all KOEO Codes.
If a Code 55 (pass code) is retrieved, testing is complete. If a Code 55 is not retrieved, service KOEO codes. See TROUBLE CODE REFERENCEΒ under CIRCUIT TESTS. If PCM will not output codes, go to CIRCUIT TEST VPWR. If trouble codes are retrieved, service trouble codes in order retrieved.
