Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.
(Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
Diagnostic Test
1.
DTC IS ACTIVE
Ignition on, engine not running.
With the scan tool, Clear DTCs in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Monitor the scan tool for at least two minutes.
Cycle the ignition key off and on several times, leaving the ignition on for at least 10 seconds at a time.
Start the engine.
Allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature.
With the scan tool, select View DTCs.
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes
No
2.
(K353) POST-CATALYST EXHAUST TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE
Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor harness connector.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Remove the ASD Relay from the TIPM.
Connect a jumper wire between cavity 30 and cavity 87 of the ASD Relay Connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the (K353) Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor Signal circuit in the Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor harness connector.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
No
3.
(K915) POST-CATALYST EXHAUST TEMPERATURE SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE
Measure the voltage of the (K915) Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor Ground circuit in the Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor harness connector.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
No
4.
(K353) POST-CATALYST EXHAUST TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
Turn the ignition off.
Measure the resistance of the (K353) Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor Signal circuit between the Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor harness connector and the Engine Control Module
(ECM) harness connector.
Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?
Yes
No
5.
(K915) POST-CATALYST EXHAUST TEMPERATURE SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance of the (K915) Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor Ground circuit between the Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor harness connector and the Engine Control Module
(ECM) harness connector.
Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?
Yes
No
6.
POST-CATALYST EXHAUST TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Turn the ignition off.
Connect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Remove the jumper wire from between cavity 30 and cavity 87 of the ASD Relay Connector.
Install the ASD Relay.
Connect a jumper wire between the (K353) Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor Signal circuit and the (K915) Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor Ground circuit in the Post-Catalyst
Exhaust Temperature Sensor harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, Clear DTCs.
With the scan tool, select View DTCs.
NOTE:
The scan tool should display a Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor low voltage or short to ground DTC with the jumper wire in place.
Does the scan tool display the DTC as described above?
Yes
No
7.
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)
Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Post-Catalyst Exhaust Temperature Sensor and the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit and wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.
Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.
Were any problems found?
Yes
No
