Alternate Good Trips are used in place of Global
Good Trips for Comprehensive Components and
Major Monitors. If the Task Manager cannot run a
Global Good Trip because a component fault is stop-
ping the monitor from running, it will attempt to
count an Alternate Good Trip.
The Task Manager counts an Alternate Good Trip
for Comprehensive components when the following
conditions are met:
•
Two minutes of engine run time, idle or driving
•
No other faults occur
The Task Manager counts an Alternate Good Trip
for a Major Monitor when the monitor runs and
passes. Only the Major Monitor that failed needs to
pass to count an Alternate Good Trip.
Warm-Up Cycles
Once the MIL has been extinguished by the Good
Trip Counter, the PCM automatically switches to a
Warm-Up Cycle Counter that can be viewed on the
DRBIII
t
. Warm-Up Cycles are used to erase DTCs
and Freeze Frames. Forty Warm-Up cycles must
occur in order for the PCM to self-erase a DTC and
Freeze Frame. A Warm-Up Cycle is defined as fol-
lows:
•
Engine coolant temperature must start below
and rise above 160° F
•
Engine coolant temperature must rise by 40° F
•
No further faults occur
Freeze Frame Data Storage
Once a failure occurs, the Task Manager records
several engine operating conditions and stores it in a
Freeze Frame. The Freeze Frame is considered one
frame of information taken by an on-board data
recorder. When a fault occurs, the PCM stores the
input data from various sensors so that technicians
can determine under what vehicle operating condi-
tions the failure occurred.
The data stored in Freeze Frame is usually
recorded when a system fails the first time for two
trip faults. Freeze Frame data will only be overwrit-
ten by a different fault with a higher priority.
CAUTION: Erasing DTCs, either with the DRBIII
T
; or
by disconnecting the battery, also clears all Freeze
Frame data.
Similar Conditions Window
The Similar Conditions Window displays informa-
tion about engine operation during a monitor. Abso-
lute MAP (engine load) and Engine RPM are stored
in this window when a failure occurs. There are two
different Similar conditions Windows: Fuel System
and Misfire.
FUEL SYSTEM
•
Fuel System Similar Conditions Window —
An indicator that ’Absolute MAP When Fuel Sys Fail’
and ’RPM When Fuel Sys Failed’ are all in the same
range when the failure occurred. Indicated by switch-
ing from ’NO’ to ’YES’.
•
Absolute MAP When Fuel Sys Fail — The
stored MAP reading at the time of failure. Informs
the user at what engine load the failure occurred.
•
Absolute MAP — A live reading of engine load
to aid the user in accessing the Similar Conditions
Window.
•
RPM When Fuel Sys Fail — The stored RPM
reading at the time of failure. Informs the user at
what engine RPM the failure occurred.
•
Engine RPM — A live reading of engine RPM
to aid the user in accessing the Similar Conditions
Window.
•
Adaptive Memory Factor — The PCM utilizes
both Short Term Compensation and Long Term Adap-
tive to calculate the Adaptive Memory Factor for
total fuel correction.
•
Upstream O2S Volts — A live reading of the
Oxygen Sensor to indicate its performance. For
example, stuck lean, stuck rich, etc.
•
SCW Time in Window (Similar Conditions
Window Time in Window) — A timer used by the
PCM that indicates that, after all Similar Conditions
have been met, if there has been enough good engine
running time in the SCW without failure detected.
This timer is used to increment a Good Trip.
•
Fuel System Good Trip Counter — A Trip
Counter used to turn OFF the MIL for Fuel System
DTCs. To increment a Fuel System Good Trip, the
engine must be in the Similar Conditions Window,
Adaptive Memory Factor must be less than cali-
brated threshold and the Adaptive Memory Factor
must stay below that threshold for a calibrated
amount of time.
•
Test Done This Trip — Indicates that the
monitor has already been run and completed during
the current trip.
MISFIRE
•
Same Misfire Warm-Up State — Indicates if
the misfire occurred when the engine was warmed up
(above 160° F).
•
In Similar Misfire Window — An indicator
that ’Absolute MAP When Misfire Occurred’ and
’RPM When Misfire Occurred’ are all in the same
range when the failure occurred. Indicated by switch-
ing from ’NO’ to ’YES’.
•
Absolute MAP When Misfire Occurred —
The stored MAP reading at the time of failure.
Informs the user at what engine load the failure
occurred.
