procedure in this article.
- Ensure throttle cables are not holding throttle open. If throttle is held open, repair as required. Perform TEST VER-1Β . If throttle is not held open, use DRB to read Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) voltage.
- If voltage is less than 1.5 volts, go to next step. If voltage is more than 1.5 volts, disconnect TPS connector. Inspect terminals. Repair as required. Perform TEST VER-1. If terminals are okay, replace TPS. Perform TEST VER-1.
- If vehicle is not equipped with a factory vehicle theft alarm, go to next step. If vehicle is equipped with factory vehicle theft alarm, use DRB to read theft alarm status. If DRB displays FUEL ON, go to next step. If DRB does not display FUEL ON, see INTRODUCTION in TESTS W/CODES - BODY CONTROL COMPUTER article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section.
- Using DRB, actuate fuel system. Listen for fuel pump operation at fuel tank. If fuel pump operation cannot be heard, go to TEST NS-5AΒ . If fuel pump operation can be heard, turn ignition off.
