CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:
Several discrete switch inputs are utilized by the fuel injection system to identify abnormal
conditions that may affect engine operation. A pull-up switch is currently used in conjunction
with the ECM to detect critical conditions to engine operation.
If a discrete switch changes states from its normal at-rest position, that is normally open to
closed (or closed to open), the ECM senses a change in voltage and responds by activating
the audio warning system.
TEST DESCRIPTION:
A problem with the discrete circuit system will have to be broken down into several sub-
steps. These will include the following:
•
Testing the audio warning buzzer.
•
Testing the individual switches.
•
Testing the wiring.
Be sure that all items above have been performed prior to replacement of the ECM.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS:
•
Check engine oil and gear lube levels. Check transmission fluid for overheat condition.
An intermittent problem may be caused by a poor or corroded connection, rubbed through
wire connection, or a wire that is broken inside the insulation.
