WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Ignition ON, observe the Ignition 1 Voltage parameter. Voltage should be more than 10 volts.
- If less than 10 volts, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit that powers the ETC fuse for an open or a faulty ECM.
- Ignition ON, probe both sides of the ETC fuse with a test lamp. The test lamp should illuminate on both sides of the fuse.
- If the test lamp illuminates on only one side of the fuse, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit that powers the ETC fuse for a short to ground or a faulty ECM.
- Ignition OFF, probe both sides of the ETC fuse. The test lamp should not illuminate on either side of the fuse.
- If the test lamp illuminates on at least one side of the fuse, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit that powers the ETC fuse for a short to voltage or a faulty ECM.
- Ignition ON, probe both sides of the PCM IGN 1 fuse. The test lamp should illuminate on both sides of the fuse.
- If the test lamp illuminates on only one side of the fuse test the ignition 1 voltage circuit that powers the PCM IGN 1 fuse for a short to ground or a faulty ECM.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate on both sides of the fuse, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit that powers the PCM IGN 1 fuse for an open or faulty ECM.
- Ignition OFF, probe both sides of the PCM IGN 1 fuse. The test lamp should not illuminate on either side of the fuse.
- If the test lamp illuminates on at least one side of the fuse, test the ignition 1 voltage circuit that powers the PCM IGN 1 fuse for a short to voltage or a faulty ECM.
