6.3  ENGINE GROUP INSTALLATIONS   

 

The engine group is designed to be separated into left (driver) and right (passenger) 

sections. Each side is tie-wrapped separately, BUT NOT LABELED. The left side of the 

has the connectors for the idle air control, throttle position sensor, mass air flow sensor, 

and engine coolant sensor, all of which ARE labeled. When you begin routing, FIRST 

separate the engine group into left and right sections, and place them accordingly. 

 

NOTE:  The air pump, air bleed, canister purge, and canister vent solenoid 

connectors are rolled up in the dash section and must be routed out to the 

engine compartment if these items are to be used. Note: Before you connect 

any wires, separate the tail section from the engine group and place it out of the way. 

 

A. 

ALT (optional) - This circuit is used to excite (turn on) the voltage regulator. 

When using the stock alternator equipped on the 4.8, 5.3 or 6.0L Vortec engines, 

this wire will connect to the L terminal in the voltage regulator plug. You must 

add either a small indicator light or suitable voltage reducer (82 Ohm/ 

5 Watt resistor). Painless offers a replacement alternator pigtail that includes 

the proper resistor, part #30705. For any other charging system combinations, 

contact the Painless tech dept. 

B. 

CKP (mandatory) - The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor provides the PCM 

with crankshaft speed and crankshaft position. The PCM utilizes this information 

in order to determine if an engine misfire is present. The PCM monitors the CKP 

sensor for momentary drop in crankshaft speed in order to determine if a misfire 

is occurring. See Figure 6.15  

C. 

CMP (mandatory) - The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor provides the PCM 

with camshaft speed and position. The PCM monitors the CMP sensor for any 

momentary drops in camshaft speed in order to determine if a misfire is 

occurring. See Figure 6.14
