disconnecting the 40-pin connector. An XXXX-3 diagnostic code became active after the 40-pin connector was disconnected - The fault is in the CEM harness.Repair: Repair the faulty wiring or replace the faulty wiring. Use the electronic service tool to clear all logged diagnostic codes and verify that the repair eliminates the fault.STOP
The XXXX-4 diagnostic code is still present - Leave the sensor disconnected. Proceed to Test Step 9.Test Step 9. Create an Open Circuit at the 31-Pin Connector
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
Disconnect the 31-pin connector.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position. Wait at least 30 seconds for activation of the diagnostic codes.Note: While the 31-pin connector is disconnected, diagnostic codes for the other components that are connected to the 31-pin connector will be active. Disregard the diagnostic codes for all the other components. Only address the 3241 and 3242 diagnostic codes.
Access the "Active Diagnostic Codes" screen on the electronic service tool and check for an active XXXX-3 diagnostic code for the suspect sensor.
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
Reconnect the 31-pin connector.Results:
An XXXX-4 diagnostic code was active before disconnecting the 31-pin connector. An XXXX-3 diagnostic code became active after the 31-pin connector was disconnected. - The fault is in the harness between the 40-pin connector and the 31-pin connector.Repair: Repair the faulty wiring or replace the faulty wiring. Use the electronic service tool to clear all logged diagnostic codes and verify that the repair eliminates the fault.STOP
