Mercruiser 5.7L MEFI 5 Service Manual

CAUTION
To reduce the chance of personal injury and/or property damage, the

following instructions must be carefully observed.
Proper service and repair are important to the safety of the service technician
and the safe, reliable operation of all System4 Electronic Fuel Injection
equipped engines. If part replacement is necessary, the part must be
replaced with one of the same part number or with an equivalent part. Do not
use a replacement part of lesser quality.
The service procedures recommended and described in this service manual
are effective methods of performing service and repair. Some of these
procedures require the use of tools specically designed for the purpose.
Accordingly, anyone who intends to use a replacement part, service
procedure, or tool which is not recommended by the manufacturer, must rst
determine that neither his safety nor the safe operation of the vehicle will be
jeopardized by the replacement part, service procedure or tool selected.
It is important to note that this manual contains various Cautions and Notices
that must be carefully observed in order to reduce the risk of personal injury
during service or repair, or the possibility that improper service or repair may
damage the vehicle or render it unsafe. It is also important to understand that
these Cautions and Notices are not exhaustive, because it is impossible
to warn of all the possible hazardous consequences that might result from
failure to follow these instructions.

General Description
Visual / Physical Inspection
A careful visual and physical inspection must be
performed as part of any diagnostic procedure. This can
often lead to xing a problem without further diagnostics.
Inspect all vacuum hoses for correct routing, pinches, cracks
or disconnects. Be sure to inspect hoses that are difcult
to see. Inspect all the wires in the engine compartment for
proper connections, burned or chafed spots, pinched wires or
contact with sharp edges or hot manifolds. This visual/physical
inspection is very important. It must be done carefully and
thoroughly.
Basic Knowledge and Tools Required
To use this manual most effectively, a general understanding
of basic electrical circuits and circuit testing tools is required.
You should be familiar with wiring diagrams, the meaning of
voltage, ohms, amps and the basic theories of electricity. You
should also understand what happens if a circuit becomes
open, shorted to ground or shorted to voltage.
To perform system diagnostics, several special tools and
equipment are required. Please become acquainted with
the tools and their use before attempting to diagnose the
system. Special tools that are required for system service
are illustrated in this section.
Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electronic components used in control systems are often
designed to carry very low voltage, and are very susceptible
to damage caused by electrostatic discharge. It is possible
for less than 100 volts of static electricity to cause damage
to some electronic components. By comparison, it takes as
much as 4,000 volts for a person to feel the zap of a static
discharge.
There are several ways a person can become statically
charged. The most common methods of charging are by
friction and by induction. An example of charging by friction is
a person sliding across a seat, in which a charge of as much
as 25,000 volts can build up. Charging by induction occurs
when a person with well insulated shoes stands near a highly
charged object and momentarily touches ground. Charges of
the same polarity are drained off, leaving the person highly
charged with the opposite polarity. Static charges of either
type can cause damage. Therefore, it is important to use care
when handling and testing electronic components.
Engine Wiring
When it is necessary to move any of the wiring, whether to
lift wires away from their harnesses or move harnesses to
reach some component, take care that all wiring is replaced
in its original position and all harnesses are routed correctly. If
clips or retainers break, replace them. Electrical problems can
result from wiring or harnesses becoming loose and moving
from their original positions, or from being rerouted.
Engine Control Module (ECM) Self-
Diagnostics
The Engine Control Module (ECM) performs a continuous
self-diagnosis on certain control functions. This diagnostic
capability is complemented by the diagnostic procedures
contained in this manual. The ECMs language for
communicating the source of a malfunction is a system of
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). The DTCs are identied
by two sets of numbers. The rst number, labeled a SPN,
identies the location of the problem and the second number,
a FMI, identies the type of problem is occuring at the location.
When a malfunction is detected by the ECM, a DTC is set and
the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is illuminated.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is designed to alert
the operator that a problem has occurred and that the
vehicle should be taken for service as soon as reasonably
possible.
As a bulb and system check, the light will come ON with the
key ON, engine OFF. When the engine is started, the light
will turn OFF. If the light remains ON, the self-diagnostic
system has detected a problem. If the problem goes away,
the light will go out in most cases after 10 seconds, but a DTC
will remain stored in the ECM.
When the light remains ON while the engine is running,
or when a malfunction is suspected due to a drivability
problem, the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check
must be performed as the rst step. These checks will expose
malfunctions which may not be detected if other diagnostics
are performed prematurely.
Intermittent Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
In the case of an intermittent problem, the Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (MIL) will light for 10 seconds, and then
go out. However, the corresponding DTC will be stored
in the memory of the ECM. When DTCs are set by an
intermittent malfunction, they could be helpful in diagnosing
the system.
If an intermittent DTC is cleared, it may or may not reset. If
it is an intermittent failure, consult the Diagnostic Aids on
the facing page of the corresponding DTC table. Symptoms
section also covers the topic of Intermittents. A physical
inspection of the applicable sub-system most often will resolve
the problem.
Reading Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
The provision for communicating with the ECM is the Data
Link Connector (DLC) (Figure 1-1). It is part of the engine
wiring harness, and is a 6-pin connector, which is electrically
connected to the ECM. It is used in the assembly plant to
receive information in checking that the engine is operating
properly before it leaves the plant. The DTC(s) stored in
the ECMs memory can be retrieved through a scan tool,
a hand-held diagnostic scanner plugged into the DLC: or a
PC based software program designed to interface with the
ECM datastream.
Scan Tool Use With Intermittents
The scan tool provides the ability to perform a wiggle test
on wiring harnesses or components with the engine not
running, while observing the scan tool display.
The scan tool can be plugged in and observed while
driving the vehicle under the condition when the MIL turns
ON or the engine drivability is poor. If the problem seems
to be related to certain parameters that can be checked
on the scan tool, they should be checked while driving
the vehicle. If there does not seem to be any correlation
between the problem and any specic circuit, the scan tool
can be checked on each position, watching for a period
of time to see if there is any change in the readings that
indicates an intermittent operation.
The scan tool is also an easy way to compare the
operating parameters of a poorly operating engine with
those of a known good one. For example, a sensor may
shift in value but not set a DTC. Comparing the sensors
readings with those of a known good identical vehicle may
uncover the problem.
The scan tool has the ability to save time in diagnosis
and prevent the replacement of good parts. The key to
using the scan tool successfully for diagnosis lies in the
technicians ability to understand the system they are trying
to diagnose, as well as an understanding of the scan tool
operation and limitations. The technician should read the
tool manufacturers operating manual to become familiar
with the tools operation.
How Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) Are
Set
The ECM is programmed to receive calibrated voltage signals
from the sensors. The voltage signal from the sensor may
range from as low as 0.1 volt to as high as 4.9 volts. The
sensor voltage signal is calibrated for engine application.
This would be the sensors operating parameter or window.
The ECM and sensors will be discussed further in the ECM
and Sensor section.
If a sensor is within its operating or acceptable parameters
(Figure 1-2), the ECM does not detect a problem. When a
sensor voltage signal falls out of this window, the ECM no
longer receives a signal voltage within the operating window.
When the ECM does not receive the window voltage for a
calibratible length of time, a DTC will be stored. The MIL
will be illuminated and a known default value will replace the
sensor value to restore engine performance.
Figure 1-1 - Data Link Connector (DLC)
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check
After the visual/physical inspection, the On-Board Diagnostic
(OBD) System Check is the starting point for all diagnostic
procedures. Refer to Diagnosis section.
The correct procedure to diagnose a problem is to follow two
basic steps:
1. Are the on-board diagnostics working? This is determined
by performing the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System
Check. Since this is the starting point for the diagnostic
procedures, always begin here. If the on-board
diagnostics are not working, the OBD system check
will lead to a diagnostic table in the Diagnosis section
to correct the problem. If the on-board diagnostics are
working properly, the next step is:
2. Is there a DTC stored? If a DTC is stored, go directly to
the number DTC table in the Diagnosis section. This will
determine if the fault is still present.
DLC Scan Tools
The ECM can communicate a variety of information through
the DLC. This data is transmitted at a high frequency which
requires a scan tool for interpretation.
With an understanding of the data which the scan tool
displays, and knowledge of the circuits involved, the scan tool
can be very useful in obtaining information which would be
more difcult or impossible to obtain with other equipment.
A scan tool does not make the use of diagnostic tables
unnecessary, nor do they indicate exactly where the problem
is in a particular circuit. Diagnostic tables incorporate
diagnostic procedures that are designed to function only with
a scan tool or PC based scan program.

Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes
1. Install scan tool or P.C.
2. Start engine.
3. Select clear DTCs function.
4. Clear DTCs.
5. Turn ignition OFF for at least 20 seconds.
6. Turn ignition ON and read DTCs. If DTCs are still
present, check Notice below and repeat procedure
following from step 2.
NOTICE: When clearing DTCs with the use of a scan tool,
the ignition must be cycled to the OFF position or the DTCs
will not clear.
Non-Scan Diagnosis Of Drivability Concerns
(No DTCs Set)
If a drivability concern still exists after following the OBD
system check and reviewing the Symptoms tables, an out
of range sensor may be suspected. Because of the unique
design of the MEFI system, the ECM will replace sensed
values with calibrated default values in the case of a sensor
or circuit malfunction. By allowing this to occur, limited engine
performance is restored until the vehicle is repaired. A basic
understanding of sensor operation is necessary to be able
to diagnose an out of range sensor.
If the sensor is out of range, but still within the operating
window of the ECM, the problem will go undetected by the
ECM and may result in a drivability concern.
Figure 1-2 - Example of Sensor Normal Operation
A good example of this would be if the coolant sensor was
reading incorrectly and indicating to the ECM that coolant
temperature was at 50F, but actual coolant temperature was
at 150F (Figure 1-3). This would cause the ECM to deliver
more fuel than what was actually needed by the engine. This
resulted in an overly rich condition, causing rough running.
This condition would not have caused a DTC to set, as the
ECM interprets this as within the operating window.
To identify a sensor that is out of range, you may unplug the
sensor electrical connector while the engine is running. After
about 2 minutes, the DTC for that sensor will set, illuminate the
MIL, and replace the sensed value with a calibrated default
value. If at that point, a noticeable performance increase is
observed, the non-scan DTC table for that particular sensor
should be followed to correct the problem.
NOTICE: Be sure to clear each DTC after disconnecting and
reconnecting each sensor. Failure to do so may result in a
misdiagnosis of the drivability concern.

Service Precautions
The following requirements must be observed when working
on engines.
1. Before removing any ECM system component, disconnect
the negative battery cable.
2. Never start the engine without the battery being solidly
connected.
3. Never separate the battery from the on-board electrical
system while the engine is running.
4. Never separate the battery feed wire from the charging
system while the engine is running.
5. When charging the battery, disconnect it from the
vehicles electrical system.
6. Ensure that all cable harnesses are connected solidly
and the battery connections are thoroughly clean.
7. Never connect or disconnect the wiring harness at the
ECM when the ignition is switched ON.
8. Before attempting any electric arc welding on the
vehicle, disconnect the battery leads and the ECM
connector(s).
9. When steam cleaning engines, do not direct the nozzle at
any ECM system components. If this happens, corrosion
of the terminals or damage of components can take
place.
10. Use only the test equipment specied in the diagnostic
tables, since other test equipment may either give
incorrect test results or damage good components.
11. All measurements using a multimeter must use a digital
meter with a rating of 10 megaohm input impedance.
12. When a test light is specied, a low-power test light must
be used. Do not use a high-wattage test light. While a
particular brand of test light is not suggested, a simple
test on any test light will ensure it to be safe for system
circuit testing (Figure 1-4). Connect an accurate ammeter
(such as the high-impedance digital multimeter) in series
with the test light being tested, and power the test light
ammeter circuit with the vehicle battery.

Diagnosis
The diagnostic tables and functional checks in this manual are
designed to locate a faulty circuit or component through logic
based on the process of elimination. The tables are prepared
with the requirement that the system functioned correctly at
the time of assembly and that there are no multiple failures.
Engine control circuits contain many special design features
not found in standard vehicle wiring. Environmental protection
is used extensively to protect electrical contacts. Proper
splicing methods must be used when necessary.
The proper operation of low amperage input/output circuits
depend upon good continuity between circuit connectors. It
is important before component replacement and/or during
normal troubleshooting procedures that a visual inspection
of any questionable mating connector is performed. Mating
surfaces should be properly formed, clean and likely to make
proper contact. Some typical causes of connector problems
are listed below:
Improperly formed contacts and/or connector housing.
Damaged contacts or housing due to improper

engagement.
Corrosion, sealer or other contaminants on the contact

mating surfaces.
Incomplete mating of the connector halves during

initial assembly or during subsequent troubleshooting
procedures.
Tendency for connectors to come apart due to vibration

and/or temperature cycling.
Terminals not fully seated in the connector body.
Inadequate terminal crimps to the wire.

On-Board Service
Wiring Harness Service
Figure 1-7
Wiring harnesses should be replaced with proper part number
harnesses. When wires are spliced into a harness, use the
same gauge wire with high temperature insulation only.
With the low current and voltage levels found in the system,
it is important that the best possible bond be made at all wire
splices by soldering the splices as shown in Figure 1-7.
Use care when probing a connector or replacing a connector
terminal. It is possible to short between opposite terminals. If
this happens, certain components can be damaged. Always
use jumper wires with the corresponding mating terminals
between connectors for circuit checking. NEVER probe
through connector seals, wire insulation, secondary ignition
wires, boots, nipples or covers. Microscopic damage or holes
may result in water intrusion, corrosion and/or component
failure.

Wiring Connector Service
Most connectors in the engine compartment are protected
against moisture and dirt which could create oxidation
and deposits on the terminals. This protection is important
because of the very low voltage and current levels found in the
electronic system. The connectors have a lock which secures
the male and female terminals together. A secondary lock
holds the seal and terminal into the connector.
When diagnosing, open circuits are often difcult to locate by
sight because oxidation or terminal misalignment are hidden
by the connectors. Merely wiggling a connector on a sensor,
or in the wiring harness, may locate the open circuit condition.
This should always be considered when an open circuit or
failed sensors is indicated. Intermittent problems may also
be caused by oxidized or loose connections.
Before making a connector repair, be certain of the type of
connector. Some connectors look similar but are serviced
differently. Replacement connectors and terminals are listed
in the parts catalog.
Metri-Pack Series 150 Terminals
Figure 1-8
Some ECM harness connectors contain terminals called
Metri-Pack (Figure 1-8). These are used at some of the
sensors and the distributor connector.
Metri-Pack terminals are also called Pull-To-Seat terminals
because, to install a terminal on a wire, the wire is rst inserted
through the seal and connector. The terminal is then crimped
on the wire, and the terminal is pulled back into the connector
to seat it in place.
To remove a terminal:
1. Slide the seal back on the wire.
2. Insert tool J 35689 or equivalent, as shown in Figure
1-5, to release the terminal locking tang.
3. Push the wire and terminal out through the connector. If
the terminal is being reused, reshape the locking tang.

Weather-Pack Connectors
Figure 1-9
Figure 1-9 shows a Weather-Pack connector and the tool
(J 28742 or equivalent) required to service it. This tool is used
to remove the pin and sleeve terminals. If terminal removal is
attempted without using the special tool required, there is a
good chance that the terminal will be bent or deformed, and
unlike standard blade type terminals, these terminals cannot
be straightened once they are bent.
Make certain that the connectors are properly seated and
all of the sealing rings in place when connecting leads. The
hinge-type ap provides a secondary locking feature for the
connector. It improves the connector reliability by retaining the
terminals if the small terminal lock tangs are not positioned
properly.
Weather-Pack connections cannot be replaced with standard
connections. Instructions are provided with Weather-Pack
connector and terminal packages.

General Description
This Electronic Fuel Injection system is equipped with a
computer that provides the operator with state-of-the-art
control of fuel and spark delivery. Before we discuss the
computers in this application, lets discuss how computers
use voltage to send and receive information.
Computers and Voltage Signals
Voltage is electrical pressure. Voltage does not ow through
circuits. Instead, voltage causes current. Current does the real
work in electrical circuits. It is current, the ow of electrically
charged particles, that energizes solenoids, closes relays
and illuminates lamps.
Besides causing current ow in circuits, voltage can be
used as a signal. Voltage signals can send information by
changing levels, changing waveform (shape) or changing
the speed at which the signal switches from one level to
another. Computers use voltage signals to communicate with
one another. The different circuits inside computers also use
voltage signals to talk to each other.
There are two kinds of voltage signals, analog and digital.
Both of these are used in computer systems. It is important
to understand the difference between them and the different
ways they are used.
Analog Signals
An analog signal is continuously variable. This means that the
signal can be any voltage within a certain range.
An analog signal usually gives information about a condition
that changes continuously over a certain range. For example,
temperature is usually provided by an analog signal. There
are two general types of sensors that produce analog signals,
the 3-wire and the 2-wire sensors.
Figure 2-1 shows a schematic representation of a 3-wire
sensor. All 3-wire sensors have a reference voltage, a ground
and a variable wiper. The lead coming off of the wiper will
be the signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM). As this
wiper position changes, the signal voltage to the ECM also
changes.
Two-Wire Sensors
Figure 2-2 - Two-Wire Sensors
Three-Wire Sensors
Figure 2-2 shows a schematic representation of a 2-wire
sensor. This sensor is basically a variable resistor in series
with a known-xed resistor within the ECM. By knowing the
values of the input voltage and the voltage drop across the
known resistor, the value of the variable resistor can be
determined. The variable resistors that are commonly used
are called thermistors. A thermistors resistance varies with
temperature.

Digital Signals
Digital signals are also variable, but not continuously. They
can only be represented by distinct voltages within a range.
For example, 1V, 2V or 3V would be allowed, but 1.27V or
2.56V would not. Digital signals are especially useful when the
information can only refer to two conditions: YES and NO,
ON and OFF or HIGH and LOW. This would be called
a digital binary signal. A digital binary signal is limited to two
voltage levels. One level is a positive voltage, the other is no
voltage (zero volts). As you can see in Figure 2-3, a digital
binary signal is a square wave.
The ECM uses digital signals in a code that contains only ones
and zeros. The high voltage of the digital signal represents a
one (1), and no voltage represents a zero (0). Each zero and
each one is called a bit of information, or just a bit. Eight
bits together are called a word. A word, therefore, contains
some combination of eight binary code bits.
Binary code is used inside the ECM and between a computer
and any electronic device that understands the code.
By stringing together thousands of bits, computers can
communicate and store an innite varieties of information. To a
computer that understands binary, 11001011 might mean that
it should turn an output device ON at slow speed. Although
the ECM uses 8-bit digital codes internally and when talking
to another computer, each bit can have a meaning.
Figure 2-3 - Digital Voltage Signal
Switch Types
Switched inputs (also known as discretes) to the ECM can
cause one bit to change, resulting in information being
communicated to the ECM. Switched inputs can come in
two types: pull-up and pull-down types. Both types will be
discussed.
With pull-up type switch, the ECM will sense a voltage when
the switch is CLOSED. With pull-down type switch, the ECM
will sense a voltage when the switch is OPEN.
Pulse Counters
For the ECM to determine frequency information from a
switched input, the ECM must measure the time between the
voltage pulses. As a number of pulses are recorded in a set
amount of time, the ECM can calculate the frequency. The
meaning of the frequency number can have any number of
meanings to the ECM.
An example of a pulse counter type of input is the distributor
reference pulse input. The ECM can count a train of pulses,
a given number of pulses per engine revolution. In this way,
the ECM can determine the RPM of the engine.

DIGITAL BINARY SIGNAL
The Engine Control Module (ECM), located on the engine,
is the control center of the fuel injection system. It controls
the following:
Fuel metering system.
Ignition timing.
Idle speed.
On-board diagnostics for engine functions.

It constantly looks at the information from various sensors,
and controls the systems that affect engine performance. The
ECM also performs the diagnostic function of the system. It
can recognize operational problems, alert the driver through
the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) and store diagnostic
trouble codes which identify the problem areas to aid the
technician in making repairs. Refer to General Information
section for more information on using the diagnostic function
of the ECM.
ECM Function
The ECM supplies either 5 or 12 volts to power various
sensors or switches. This is done through resistances in
the ECM which are so high in value that a test light will not
light when connected to the circuit. In some cases, even an
ordinary shop voltmeter will not give an accurate reading
because its resistance is too low. Therefore, a digital voltmeter
with at least 10 megohms input impedance is required to
ensure accurate voltage readings. Tool J 39978 or the Fluke
78 multimeter meet this requirement.
The ECM controls output circuits such as the injectors, IAC,
relays, etc. by controlling the ground or power feed circuit.
Memory
There are three types of memory storage within the ECM.
They are ROM, RAM and EEPROM.
ROM
Read Only Memory (ROM) is a permanent memory that is
physically soldered to the circuit boards within the ECM. The
ROM contains the overall control programs. Once the ROM
is programmed, it cannot be changed. The ROM memory is
non-erasable, and does not need power to be retained.
RAM
Random Access Memory (RAM) is the microprocessor
scratch pad. The processor can write into, or read from this
memory as needed. This memory is erasable and needs a
constant supply of voltage to be retained. If the voltage is
lost, the memory is lost.
EEPROM
The Electronically Erasable Programmable Read Only
Memory (EEPROM) is a permanent memory that is physically
soldered within the ECM. The EEPROM contains program
and calibration information that the ECM needs to control
engine operation.
The EEPROM is not replaceable. If the ECM is replaced, the
new ECM will need to be programmed by the OEM with the
calibration information that is specic to each application.
Figure 2-4 - Engine Control Module (ECM) MEFI 5
Speed Density System
This System is a speed and air density system. The system
is based on speed density fuel management.
Sensors provide the ECM with the basic information for the
fuel management portion of its operation. Signals to the ECM
establish the engine speed and air density factors.
Speed
The engine speed signal comes from the Crank Position
Sensor. The ECM uses this information to determine the
speed or RPM factor for fuel and spark management.
Density
One particular sensor contributes to the density factor, the
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor. The MAP sensor is
a 3-wire sensor that monitors the changes in intake manifold
pressure which results from changes in engine loads. These
pressure changes are supplied to the ECM in the form of
electrical signals.
As intake manifold pressure increases, the vacuum decreases.
The air density in the intake manifold also increases, and
additional fuel is needed.
The MAP sensor sends this pressure information to the
ECM, and the ECM increases the amount of fuel injected,
by increasing the injector pulse width. As manifold pressure
decreases, the vacuum increases, and the amount of fuel is
decreased.
These two inputs, MAP and RPM, are the major determinants
of the air/fuel mixture delivered by the fuel injection system.
The remaining sensors and switches provide electrical inputs
to the ECM, which are used for modication of the air/fuel
mixture, as well as for other ECM control functions, such as
idle control.
ECM Inputs and Sensor Descriptions
Figure 2-5 lists the data sensors, switches and other inputs
used by the ECM to control its various systems. Although
we will not cover them all in great detail, there will be a brief

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is a thermistor
(a resistor which changes value based on temperature)
mounted in the engine coolant stream. Low coolant
temperature produces a high resistance (100,000 ohms at
-40C/-40F) while high temperature causes low resistance
(70 ohms at 130C/266F).
The ECM supplies a 5 volt signal to the ECT sensor through a
resistor in the ECM and measures the voltage. The voltage will
be high when the engine is cold, and low when the engine is
hot. By measuring the voltage, the ECM calculates the engine
coolant temperature. Engine coolant temperature affects most
systems the ECM controls.
A hard fault in the engine coolant sensor circuit should set
SPN 110 FMI 3 or 4; an intermittent fault may or may not set
a DTC. The DTC Diagnostic Aids also contains a chart to
check for sensor resistance values relative to temperature.

Temperature vs Resistance
Ignition Control (IC) Reference
The Ignition Control (IC) reference (RPM signal) is supplied
to the ECM by way of the IC reference line from the ignition
module. This pulse counter type input creates the timing
signal for the pulsing of the fuel injectors, as well as the IC
functions. This signal is used for a number of control and
testing functions within the ECM.
Discrete Switch Inputs (Optional)
Several discrete switch inputs are utilized by this system to
identify abnormal conditions that may affect engine operation.
Pull-up and pull-down type switches are currently used in
conjunction with the ECM to detect critical conditions to
engine operation.
If a switch changes states from its normal at rest position, that
is, normally closed to open, or normally open to closed, the
ECM senses a change in voltage and responds by entering
RPM reduction mode.
This engine protection feature allows the operator normal
engine operations up to OEM specications (approx. 2000
RPM), but disables half the fuel injectors until the engine
drops below 1200 RPM. Then normal engine operation is
restored until the RPM limit is exceeded. This feature allows
the operator a safe maneuvering speed while removing the
possibility of high RPM engine operation until the problem
is corrected.
Switches that may be used with this system to detect critical
engine operation parameters are:
Oil level N/O
Oil pressure N/O
Emergency stop N/O

Knock Sensor
The knock sensor is mounted in the engine block. The location
depends on engine application.
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor (Figure 2-7)
is a pressure transducer that measures the changes in the
intake manifold pressure. The pressure changes as a result of
engine load and speed change, and the MAP sensor converts
this into a voltage output.
A closed throttle on engine coastdown would produce a
relatively low MAP output voltage, while a wide open throttle
would produce a high MAP output voltage. This high output
voltage is produced because the pressure inside the manifold
is almost the same as outside the manifold, so you measure
almost 100% of outside air pressure. MAP is the opposite of
what you would measure on a vacuum gauge. When manifold
pressure is high, vacuum is low, causing a high MAP output
voltage. The MAP sensor is also used to measure barometric
pressure under certain conditions, which allows the ECM to
automatically adjust for different altitudes.
The ECM supplies a 5 volt reference voltage to the MAP
sensor. As the manifold pressure changes, the electrical
resistance of the MAP sensor also changes. By monitoring the
sensor output voltage, the ECM knows the manifold pressure.
A higher pressure, low vacuum (high voltage) requires more
fuel. A lower pressure, high vacuum (low voltage) requires less
fuel. The ECM uses the MAP sensor to control fuel delivery
and ignition timing. A failure in the MAP sensor circuit should
set a SPN 106 FMI 3 or 4.
An ECM is used in conjunction with a knock sensor in order
to control detonation. The knock module circuitry is internal
in the ECM.
When knock is present, a at response is produced by the
knock sensor and transmitted to the ECM. An AC voltage
monitor inside the ECM will detect the knock and start
retarding spark timing.
Figure 2-8 - Knock Sensor (Typical)
Figure 2-7 - Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor
Diagnosis
To read and clear diagnostic trouble codes, use a scan tool
or Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) tool.
Important: Use of a scan tool is recommended to clear
diagnostic trouble codes from the ECM memory. Diagnostic
trouble codes can also be cleared by using the MDTC tool,
TA 06075.
Since the ECM can have a failure which may affect more than
one circuit, following the diagnostic procedures will determine
which circuit has a problem and where it is.
If a diagnostic table indicates that the ECM connections or
ECM is the cause of a problem and the ECM is replaced,
but does not correct the problem, one of the following may
be the reason:
There is a problem with the ECM terminal connections.

The diagnostic table will say ECM connections or
ECM. The terminals may have to be removed from the
connector in order to check them properly.
EEPROM program is not correct for the application.

Incorrect components may cause a malfunction and may
or may not set a DTC.
The problem is intermittent. This means that the problem

is not present at the time the system is being checked. In
this case, refer to the Symptoms portion of the manual
and make a careful physical inspection of all portions of
the system involved.
Shorted relay coil or harness. Relays are turned

ON and OFF by the ECM using internal electronic
switches called drivers. A shorted relay coil or harness
will not damage the ECM but will cause the relay to be
inoperative.

used on specic applications, the following rules apply. PFI systems have separate injectors for each cylinder. The injectors
are located in each of the intake manifold runners and are supplied by a fuel rail. TBI systems use two injectors mounted at

General Description
Purpose
The function of the fuel metering system is to deliver the
correct amount of fuel to the engine under all operating
conditions. Fuel is delivered to the engine by individual fuel
injectors mounted in the intake manifold near each cylinder.
Modes Of Operation
The ECM looks at inputs from several sensors to determine
how much fuel to give the engine. The fuel is delivered under
one of several conditions, called modes. All the modes are
controlled by the ECM and are described below.
Starting Mode
When the ignition switch is turned to the crank position, the
ECM turns the fuel pump relay ON, and the fuel pump builds
up pressure. The ECM then checks the ECT sensor and TP
sensor and determines the proper air/fuel ratio for starting.
The ECM controls the amount of fuel delivered in the starting
mode by changing how long the injectors are turned ON
and OFF. This is done by pulsing the injectors for very
short times.
Clear Flood Mode
If the engine oods, it can be cleared by opening the throttle
to 100% (wide open throttle) during cranking. The ECM then
shuts down the fuel injectors so no fuel is delivered. The
ECM holds this injector rate as long as the throttle stays at
100%, and the engine speed is below 300 RPM. If the throttle
position becomes less than 100%, the ECM returns to the
starting mode.
Run Mode
When the engine is rst started and RPM is above 300 RPM,
the system operates in the run mode. The ECM will calculate
the desired air/fuel ratio based on these ECM inputs: RPM,
ECT and MAP. Higher engine loads (MAP input) and colder
engine temperatures (ECT input) require more fuel, or a
richer air/fuel ratio.
Acceleration Mode
The ECM looks at rapid changes in TP sensor and MAP, and
provides extra fuel by increasing the injector pulse width.
Fuel Cutoff Mode
No fuel is delivered by the injector when the ignition is OFF,
to prevent dieseling. Also, injector pulses are not delivered if
the ECM does not receive distributor reference pulses, which
means the engine is not running. The fuel cutoff mode is also
enabled at high engine RPM, as an overspeed protection
for the engine. When fuel cutoff is in effect due to high RPM,
injector pulses will resume after engine RPM drops below the
maximum OEM RPM specication (Rev Limit).
RPM Reduction Mode
The ECM recognizes a change of state in a discrete switch
input that identies an abnormal condition. During these
abnormal conditions, RPM reduction mode allows normal
fuel injection up to OEM specication (approximately 2000
RPM). Above the OEM specied RPM limit, fuel delivery is
limited until the engine drops below 1200 RPM. Then normal
engine operation is restored until the RPM limit is exceeded
again. This feature allows maneuverability of the vehicle while
removing the possibility of high engine speed operation until
the problem is corrected.
Return and Returnless
The type of fuel system, return or returnless, will vary
depending on year, and engine. Removal and installation
procedures are the same with the exception of return line
removal or installation. Returnless fuel systems are not
regulated at the fuel rail. Fuel pressure regulation is controlled
at the module outlet lter, therefore the type of fuel system
can be determined by the number of fuel lines from the pump-
in-tank module to the engine.
Figure 3-1 - Fuel Metering System (Pump-in-Tank Return)
Fuel Supply Components (Pump-in-Tank)
The fuel supply is stored in the fuel tank. A fuel pump module
(Figure 3-2), located in the fuel tank, pumps fuel through an
in-line fuel lter to the fuel rail assembly. The pump is designed
to provide fuel at a pressure greater than is needed by the
injectors. The pressure regulator, part of the fuel rail assembly,
keeps fuel available to the injectors at a regulated pressure. If
the system uses a return line, then the unused fuel is returned
to the fuel tank by a separate line.
Fuel Metering System Components
(Pump-in-Tank)
The fuel metering system (Figure 3-1a and b) is made up of
the following parts:
Fuel supply components (in tank pump module, lines).
Fuel pump electrical circuit.
Fuel rail assembly, including fuel injectors and pressure

regulator assembly.
Throttle body assembly, including an IAC valve and TP

sensor.

Fuel Pump Electrical Circuit
When the ignition switch is turned ON, the ECM turns the
fuel pump relay ON for two seconds causing the fuel pump
to pressurize the fuel system.
When the ignition switch is turned to the crank position, the
ECM turns the fuel pump relay ON causing the fuel pump
to run.
If the ECM does not receive ignition reference pulses (engine
cranking or running), it shuts OFF the fuel pump relay,
causing the fuel pump to stop.
An inoperative fuel pump relay will result in an Engine Cranks
But Will Not Run condition.
Fuel Rail Assembly
The fuel rail (Figure 3-3) is mounted to the engine intake
manifold, and performs several functions. It positions the
injectors in the intake manifold, distributes fuel evenly to the
injectors, and integrates the fuel pressure regulator into the
fuel metering system.
Fuel Injectors
The Port Fuel Injection (PFI) injector assembly is a solenoid-
operated device, controlled by the ECM, that meters
pressurized fuel to a single engine cylinder (Figure 3-4). The
ECM energizes the injector solenoid, which opens a ball
valve, allowing fuel to ow past the ball valve, and through
a recessed ow director plate. The director plate has six
machined holes that control the fuel ow, generating a conical
spray pattern of nely atomized fuel at the injector tip. Fuel
is directed at the intake valve, causing it to become further
atomized and vaporized before entering the combustion
chamber.
An injector that is stuck partly open would cause loss of
pressure after engine shut down. Consequently, long cranking
times would be noticed. Dieseling could also occur, because
some fuel could be delivered to the engine after the ignition
is turned OFF. A fuel injector that does not open, may cause
a no-start or a misre.

Figure 3-5 - Throttle Body Assembly, Cable Actuated
Throttle Body Assembly
The throttle body assembly is attached to the intake manifold
air plenum, and is used to control air ow into the engine,
thereby controlling engine output (Figure 3-5). The throttle
plates within the throttle body are opened by the driver through
the throttle controls. During engine idle, the throttle plates are
closed, and air ow control is handled by the Idle Air Control
(IAC) valve, described below.
The throttle body also provides the location for mounting the
TP sensor and for sensing changes in engine vacuum due
to throttle plates position.
On-Board Service
Caution:
To reduce the risk of re and personal injury, relieve
fuel system pressure before servicing fuel system
components.
After relieving fuel pressure, a small amount of fuel may
be released when servicing fuel lines or connections.
To reduce the chance of personal injury, cover fuel line
ttings with a shop towel before disconnecting to catch
any fuel that may leak out. Place the towel in an approved
container when disconnection is completed.

Important
Do not soak the throttle body in cold immersion type

cleaner. The throttle valves have a factory applied
sealing compound (DAG material is applied to outside
edge of each valve and throttle bore) to prevent air
bypass at closed throttle. Strong solvents or brushing will
remove the material. To clean the throttle body following
disassembly, use a spray type cleaner such as GM
X66-A or GM 1052626. Use a shop towel to remove
heavy deposits.
When cleaning electronic throttle bodies, extreme care
should be taken not to allow solvents of any kind in or
near the actuator motor.

Electronic Throttle Control (ETC)
Components
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system uses the boat
electronics and components in order to calculate and control
the position of the throttle blade. This system eliminates the
need for a mechanical cable attachment from the Throttle-Shift
Control (T-SC) to the electronic throttle body assembly.
The ETC system components include the following:
The ECM
The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is located in a
sealed housing, which is mounted to the side of
the electronic throttle body assembly.
The Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) motor is
located within the same sealed housing as the
TPS.
The Pedal Position Sensor (PPS) is located within
a sealed housing mounted to the Throttle-Shift
Control (T-SC).
Each of these components interface together in order to
ensure accurate calculations, and in order to control the
throttle position.
Electronic Throttle Control Description
The Engine Control Module (ECM), located on the engine,
is the control center of the fuel injection system. It controls
the following:

Fuel metering system

Ignition timing

Idle speed

On-board diagnostics for engine functions
Boat speed
Throttle position
It constantly looks at the information from various sensors,
and controls the systems that affect engine performance. The
ECM also performs the diagnostic function of the system. It
can recognize operational problems, alert the driver through
the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) and store diagnostic
trouble codes which identify the problem areas to aid the
technician in making repairs.

The ECM also controls the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC).
The ECM monitors the commanded throttle position and
compares the commanded position to the actual throttle
position. This is accomplished by monitoring the Pedal
Position Sensors (PPS) (located on the Throttle-Shift Control
[T-SC]) and the Throttle Position Sensors (TPS). These two
values must be within a calibrated value of each other. The
ECM also monitors each individual circuit of the TPSs, and
of the PPSs to verify proper operation (the Pedal Position
Sensor reads the degree of movement of the Throttle-Shift
Control from 0 degrees at locked neutral, to 120 degrees at
Wide Open Throttle [WOT]).
The Electronic Throttle Body Assembly consists of the
electronic throttle body, the Throttle Position Sensors (2),
and the Throttle Actuation Control (TAC) motor. The throttle
body has a sealed housing mounted to the side of it, which
contains the two Throttle Position Sensors (TPS) and the
Throttle Actuation Control (TAC) motor. The electronic throttle
body assembly is connected to the ECM by a single 6 pin
connector to the wiring harness.
Electronic Throttle Body Assembly
Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)
The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) and the Throttle Actuation
Control (TAC) motor are contained within a sealed housing
mounted onto the side of the electronic throttle body assembly.
If one of these components should become defective the
electronic throttle body assembly must be replaced as a
complete unit.
The TPS is actually two individual sensors within the above
mentioned sealed housing. The TPSs use two separate signal
circuits, however the two sensors share one low reference
circuit and one, 5 volt reference circuit.
The TPS 1 signal voltage is pulled up to the reference voltage
as the throttle opens, from ~0.6 volts at closed throttle to ~4.3
volts at wide open throttle (WOT). The TPS 2 signal voltage
is pulled down to the reference voltage as the throttle opens,
from ~4.3 volts at closed throttle to ~0.6 volts at WOT.
TPS 1 and Pedal Position Sensor (PPS) 1 share a 5 volt
reference circuit that is connected within the ECM. TPS 2 and
Pedal Position Sensor (PPS) 2 also share a 5 volt reference
circuit that is connected within the ECM.
The PPS 1 signal voltage is pulled up to the reference voltage
as the throttle opens, from ~0.45 volts at closed throttle to
~4.18 volts at wide open throttle (WOT). The PPS 2 signal
voltage is pulled down to the reference voltage as the throttle
opens, from ~4.55 volts at closed throttle to ~0.82 volts at
WOT.
Throttle Actuation Control (TAC) Motor
The Throttle Actuation Control (TAC) motor and the TPSs are
located within one sealed housing mounted onto the side of
the electronic throttle body. If one of these components should
become defective, the electronic throttle body assembly must
be replaced as a complete unit. The unit is connected to the
ECM by one 6 pin connector.
The TAC motor is used to control the throttle position instead
of a mechanical cable. This system eliminates the need for a
mechanical cable attachment from the T-SC to the electronic
throttle body assembly. The TAC motor also controls the
throttle opening for idle and cold start/fast idle functions,
thereby eliminating the need for an Idle Air Control (IAC)
valve.
Sealed Housing (TAC motor &
Throttle Position Sensors 1 & 2)
6 Pin Throttle Actuation Control motor &
TP Sensors 1&2 Connector
ECM Function
The ECM supplies either 5 or 12 volts to power various
sensors or switches. This is done through resistances in
the ECM which are so high in value that a test light will not
illuminate when connected to the circuit. In some cases, an
ordinary voltmeter will not give an accurate reading because
its resistance is too low. Therefore, a digital voltmeter with at
least 10 megohms input impedance is required to ensure
accurate voltage readings. Tool J 39978, Fluke 78 or Fluke
87 meets this requirement. The ECM controls output circuits
such as the injectors, relays, etc. by controlling the ground
or power feed circuit.
6 Pin Throttle-Shift Control
to TAC Module Connector
(PP sensor 1 & 2)
The production Throttle-Shift Control (T-SC) unit is setup
up for dual function in a single lever. It controls both shifting
and throttle by a mechanical cable and by electronic throttle
movement. Added features include a neutral interlock to help
prevent accidental shifting and crisp positive detents. Also, the
control has a push button clutch disengagement feature for
warm-up and start-up adjustments for increased throttle. The
throttle control is designed with neutral as the center location
and is in gear when the lever is moved forward to crisp positive
detent thirty degrees. The transmission cable is pulled with
a one-to-one ratio as the lever rotates for the thirty degrees
while the throttle blade is in the closed position. After the rst
thirty-ve degrees, the throttle blade will begin to move and
the transmission cable will stay at the thirty degree location.
Maximum throttle is approximately one hundred twenty-ve
degrees. Reverse works in the same manner.
Throttle-Shift Control (T-SC) Pedal Position Sensor
The Pedal Position Sensor (PPS) is mounted on the T-SC.
The PPS is actually two individual position sensors within one
housing. The PPSs use two separate signal circuits, two low
references, and two 5 volt reference circuits to connect the
PPSs to the ECM.
Note: The two PPSs operate in slightly different voltage
ranges. Some variation in voltage above or below the normal
calibration is acceptable, however more than approximately
0.15 volts will set a PPS 1-2 Correlation Fault.
The PPS 1 voltage should increase from below 1 volt at closed
throttle to above 3.75 volts at WOT.
The PPS 2 voltage should decrease from below 5 volts at
closed throttle to above 1 volt at WOT.
Indmars Throttlemate
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Basics
Function: Replaces the mechanical cable link from the
Throttle-Shift Control (T-SC) to electronic throttle body
assembly with a system of sensors and computer controlled
throttle.
Components:
Throttle Position Sensor (TPS 1 & 2): These two individual
sensors are housed together with one Throttle Actuation
Control (TAC) motor within one sealed compartment. That
sealed compartment is permanently mounted to the side of
the electronic throttle body. There is one, 6 wire, connector
plug leading from the electronic throttle body to the main
wiring harness and eventually to the ECM.
Pedal Position Sensor (PPS 1 & 2): These two individual
sensors, are housed together in one sealed compartment.
That compartment is permanently attached to the aft end
of the T-SC. There is one, six wire, connector plug leading
directly from the T-SC to the ECM.
ECM: The ECM is the control center for the Electronic
Throttle Control (ETC) system as well as the rest of the
engine electronics. It communicates between the different
sensors and the TAC motor. It constantly monitors the sensor
readings.
The ECM continuously compares the voltage readings
between TPS 1 and TPS 2. It looks for any variance from
their normal operating voltage ranges. If variance is found a
TPS 1-2 Correlation fault is set.
The ECM also monitors both TPS 1 and TPS 2 in case of
a disconnected condition. If one of these sensors should
become disconnected, then a TPS 1 Out of Range or a TPS
2 Out of Range fault will set. An ETC Limited Authority
will also set (see Diagnosing the ETC system below for
explanation). If this occurs the engine goes to idle.
Additionally, the ECM continuously compares the voltage
readings between PPS 1 and PPS 2. It watches for any
variance from their normal operating voltage ranges. If
variance is found a PPS 1-2 Correlation fault will set.
The ECM also monitors both PPS 1 and PPS 2 in case of
a disconnected condition. If one of these sensors becomes
disconnected, then either a PPS 1 Out of Range or a PPS
2 Out of Range fault will set. An ETC Limited Authority
will also set (see Diagnosing the ETC system below for
explanation). If this occurs the engine goes into power
reduction mode.
The ECM compares the predicted throttle position and the
actual throttle position. The predicted throttle position is the
amount of throttle called for by the pedal position sensor,
which indicates how much throttle the driver wants. The actual
throttle position is the current location (angle) of the throttle
blade in the throttle body.
The ECM continuously compares the commanded throttle
position and the actual throttle position. The commanded
throttle position is the amount of throttle (degree of angle
the throttle blade is set at) called for by the location of the
Throttle-Shift Control (T-SC) from neutral to Wide Open
Throttle (WOT). The actual throttle position is the current
exact location or angle of the throttle blade.
The ECM continuously tests the integrity of the data within
itself. If there is a loss of integrity in the ECM data, or an
inability to write or read data to and from the RAM, or an
inability to correctly read data from the ash memory, or an
internal ECM processor fault, then an ETC Process fault
sets.
On boats equipped with a Cruise Control System, it is possible
to review various functions by toggling to the cruise control
read-outs on the multi-function gauge explained earlier in this
section. Note also that the throttle position must always be
greater than the speed set on the cruise control. For example,
if the cruise was set at 35 mph but the throttle-shift position is
equivalent to 25 mph, the boat will not reach 35. This is also
true of the RPMs. Also, the cruise control cannot be engaged
when the boat is at idle speed.
System Start-Up:
When the ignition is turned ON, the cruise control
system starts in OFF mode. While it is in OFF mode, the
LCD display will show the current time.
RPM Set-Point Adjustment:
In order to adjust the RPM Set Point in OFF Mode, rst
move the RPM/SPEED mode selection switch to the
RPM position. Using the +/- switch, select the desired
Set point. The RPM icon will illuminate and the LCD
will display the current Set Point. Briey pressing the
+/- switch will increase or decrease the Set Point by 20
RPM. Holding the switch will increase or decrease by
100 RPM. The RPM Set Point is limited to a minimum of
1200 RPM and a maximum of 5000 RPM.
Speed Set Point Adjustment:
In order to adjust the Speed Set Point in OFF Mode, rst
move the RPM/SPEED Mode selection switch to the SPEED
position. Use the +/- switch to select the desired Set Point.
The SPEED icon will illuminate and the LCD will display the
current Set Point. Briey pressing the +/- switch will increase
or decrease the Set Point by 0.2 MPH. Holding the switch
increases or decreases the Set Point by 1.0 MPH. The Speed
Set Point is limited to a minimum of 5.0 MPH and a maximum
of 50 MPH.
Activating RPM Cruise Control Mode:
To activate the Cruise Control System in RPM Control mode,
make sure that the RPM / SPEED mode selection switch
is in the RPM position and that current engine speed is at
least 400 RPM less than the Set Point. Press and hold the
ON/OFF switch in the ON position for approximately one
second. The LCD should now display the current engine
speed, the RPM icon should be illuminated and the LOCK
icon should be blinking.
Optional Cruise Control System
Turning On Speed Cruise Control Mode:
To turn on the Cruise Control in Speed Control mode, make
sure that the RPM/SPEED mode selection is at least 3.0 MPH
less than the Set Point. Press and hold the ON/OFF switch
in the ON position for approximately one second. The LCD
should now display the current vessel speed, the SPEED
icon should be illuminated and the LOCK icon should be
blinking.
Activating Manual Cruise Control Mode:
To activate the Cruise Control in Manual Control mode, make
sure that the RPM/SPEED mode selection switch is in the
MANUAL (center) position and that current engine speed is
at least 1200 RPM.Then press and hold the ON/OFF switch
in the ON position for approximately one second. The LCD
should display the current engine speed and the LOCK icon
should be blinking.
Manual Set Point Adjustment:
The Manual Set Point can be adjusted using the +/- switch.
The LOCK icon will disappear and the LCD will display the
current Set Point. Short presses of the +/- switch will increase
or decrease the Set Point by 20 RPM. Holding the switch
increases or decreases the Set Point by 100 RPM. The
Manual Set Point is limited to a minimum of 1200 RPM and
a maximum of 5000 RPM.
Using Speed Control Mode:
Manual Control works basically in the same way that RPM
Control Mode does. The difference is that when the system is
turned ON in manual mode the Set Point is set to the current
engine speed. For example, if the Cruise Control is OFF and
the engine speed is 2500 RPM, and the system is turned on,
the engine will hold the engine speed at 2500 RPM.
Disengaging the Cruise Control System:
There are two ways to disengage the system: Pulling back
the throttle will disengage the system at any time. The system
remains ON and can be re-engaged by accelerating the
boat until the LOCK icon stays illuminated. Or by moving the
ON/OFF switch to OFF. It is recommended that the throttle
be pulled back before turning OFF the system.

General Information
The Distributor is actually an assembly that contains the
Camshaft Position (CMP Sensor), cap, rotor and shaft. The
Distributor is splined by a helical gear to the camshaft and
rotates providing a spark to each spark plug wire. When
servicing the Distributor, it is critical to ensure proper cap
sealing to the Distributor body and correct installation to the
camshaft. If the Distributor is installed a tooth off in relation to
the camshaft, a DTC sets. The Distributor is repairable, refer
to the Distributor Overhaul Section.
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor is located within the
Distributor. Its operation is very similar to the Crankshaft
Position (CKP Sensor) however it provides one pulse per
camshaft revolution (1x signal). This signal is not detrimental
to the driveability of the vehicle. The ECM utilizes this signal
in conjunction with the crankshaft position to determine which
cylinders are misring.
The high voltage switch (HVS) type distributor is like the High
Energy Ignition (HEI) distributor in the following ways:
1. It contains a distributor cap and rotor that are responsible
for delivering spark to the spark plugs in each cylinder in a
ring order sequence dened by the location of plug wires in
the distributor cap towers.
2. It is adjustable in its location by loosening the distributor
hold-down bolt and foot clamp.
The High Voltage Switch (HVS) distributor differs from the
standard High Energy Ignition (HEI) distributor in the following
ways.
1. The HVS distributor contains a cam sensor that is afxed
to the base of the distributor housing with screws.
2. The HVS distributor does not output an RPM signal, does
not have an internally mounted ignition control module, and
does not have a pick-up coil.

Ignition Coil
The design construction of the ignition coil (Figure 4-2) affects
its output. The ignition coil was designed to produce greater
spark voltage, longer spark and operate at higher RPM. The
coil has the secondary winding wrapped around the primary
winding, and the primary winding is wrapped around the
iron core. The coil is not oil lled, the windings are covered
in an epoxy compound for protection against moisture and
arc over.
There is an iron laminated square frame around the coil
windings. This is to increase magnetic ux path and store
energy to produce higher secondary spark voltage. The coils
mounting bracket is attached to the frame.
The coil generates a high secondary voltage (up to 35,000
volts) when the primary circuit is broken. A secondary high
tension wire connects from the top post of the coil to the
center post of the distributor cap.
Ignition Coil Driver Module
The Ignition Coil Driver Module is mounted on a bracket next
to the coil. The ECM signals the ICDM to turn ON primary
current to the ignition coil by pulling the IC line high (4 volts).
The ICDM turns the primary current ON and OFF by applying
and removing the ground to the primary winding at the
appropriate time. This module is of minimum function. The
module does not contain backup calibrations that allows the
engine to continue to run if the IC signal is lost.

The crankshaft position sensor provides the ECM with the
crankshaft speed or engine RPM and the crankshaft position.
The ECM utilizes the RPM information for the operation of the
fuel, spark mapping tables and a number of other operations
performed by the ECM. In conjunction with the cam position
sensor (CMP) it also facilitates the determination of engine
misre. The ECM monitors the CKP sensor for a momentary
drop in the crankshaft speed in order to determine if a misre
is occurring. When the ECM detects a misre, a Fault Code
will set.
The ECM also monitors the CKP sensor signal circuit for
malfunctions. The ECM monitors CKP signal and the High
and Low resolution signals. The ECM calculates these signals
in order to determine a ratio. When the ECM detects that
the ratio is out of normal operating range, the ECM will set
a Fault Code.
Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
The CMP sensor will provide one pulse per camshaft
revolution (1x signal). The loss of this signal may not affect
the driveability of the vehicle, but will affect the type of control
the ECM has on the fuel injection system. If this signal is
lost the ECM will pulse the injectors bank to bank instead of
each individual injector at a time. The ECM also utilizes this
signal in conjunction with the crankshaft position in order to
determine which cylinder(s) are misring.
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor is located within the
distributor. The operation of the CMP sensor is very similar
to the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor.
Spark Plug Wires
The spark plug wires are a carbon-impregnated cord
conductor encased in a silicone rubber jacket. Silicone wiring
will withstand very high temperature and is an excellent
insulator for the higher voltages. The silicone spark plug boots
provide a tight seal on the spark plug.
Silicone is soft, pliable and therefore, more susceptible to
scufng and cutting. It is extremely important that the spark
plug cables be handled with care. They should be routed so
as not to cross each other or to be in contact with other parts
of the engine to prevent rubbing.
Do not force anything between the boot and wiring or through
the silicone jacket. Connections should be made using an
appropriate adapter.
The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls spark advance
for all operating conditions. The ECM monitors input signals
from the following components as part of its ignition control
function to determine the required ignition timing:
Crank Position (CKP) sensor.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor.
Knock Sensor (KS).

Enhanced Ignition System Description
The ignition system initiates combustion by providing a spark
to ignite the compressed air and fuel mixture at the correct
time. In order to provide an improved engine performance,
fuel economy, and control of exhaust emissions, the ECM
controls the distributor spark advance (timing) with the Ignition
Control (IC) system.
The ignition system uses a primary and secondary sub system
in order to accomplish the timed spark distribution. The primary
system consists of a Crank Position (CKP) sensor. This signal
travels to the ECM for base timing reference.
Another signal is sent back to the Ignition Control Driver (ICD)
Module, which has been adjusted by the ECM (advanced
or retarded) in order to trigger the coil, according to the
requirements of the engine.
The secondary system consists of the ignition coil which has
primary (low voltage) windings and secondary (high voltage)
windings. The secondary side of the ignition coil generates
a high voltage which high tension spark plug wires deliver to
the spark plugs.
The ECM now controls the Ignition Control (lC) function.
In order to properly control the ignition/combustion timing, the
Control Module needs to know the following things:
The crankshaft position
The engine speed (RPM)
The engine load (manifold pressure or vacuum)
The atmospheric (barometric) pressure
The engine coolant temperature
The camshaft position.
System Operation
The Enhanced Ignition system used on all MEFI 5 engines
somewhat resembles the Distributor Ignition (DI) system.
However, the system has been greatly enhanced in order to
make it compatible with the new regulations. The Enhanced
Ignition system provides a spark at precisely the correct
time in order to ignite the air and fuel mixture for optimum
performance and fuel economy. The system consists of the
following components:
ECM
HVS
Ignition Coil Driver Module
Ignition Coil
Crankshaft Position Sensor
This system does not use the ignition module used on the
DI systems in the past. The ECM now controls the Ignition
Control (IC) and Bypass functions. The crankshaft sensor,
located in the front engine cover, is perpendicular to a target
wheel attached to the crankshaft. The target wheel is equipped
with slots situated a specied number of degrees apart. As the
crankshaft rotates, the target wheel rotates past the crankshaft
position sensor. The rising and falling edges created by the
slots cause a signal to be sent back to the ECM. The signal
occurs four times per crankshaft revolution and is referred to
as the 4x signal for V8 applications.
The ECM then utilizes this 4x (V8) signal in order to provide
the correct spark to the engine by way of the single coil driver
module. The single coil driver module is basically an electronic
switch that when commanded by the ECM, causes the
primary coil voltage to breakdown, energizing the secondary
coil and providing a spark via the coil wire to the Distributor
cap. The Distributor consists of the following components:
Cap and Rotor
Camshaft Position Sensor
Gear drive and shaft.
The camshaft drives the Distributor shaft which rotates
providing a spark to the correct cylinder by way of the cap
and rotor. The camshaft position sensor functions much like
the crankshaft sensor previously described but provides
only a 1x signal to the ECM. That is, for every 2 rotations of
the crankshaft, there is 1 rotation of the camshaft. Note that
any dysfunction relating to the camshaft position sensor will
effect engine operation as this signal provides the timing
input necessary to properly operate the sequential delivery
of spark and fuel.
In many cases the engine will still operate withouth this
sensor, but operation will be compromised. The camshaft
positon sensor is also used to detect misre.
Ignition Control (IC)
The ECM software controls all of the IC and Bypass functions.
This reduces the number of circuits outside of the controller
and ultimately reduces the possibility for shorts or opens in
those circuits that could result in driveability complaints or
DTCs.
Knock Sensor System Description
Purpose
Varying octane Ievels in gasoline can cause a detonation
in the engine. This detonation is sometimes called a spark
knock. All of the engines use a Knock Sensor (KS) system
with a knock sensor. The KS system reduces the spark knock
in the engine. This allows the engine to have maximum spark
advance for improved driveability and fuel economy.
Operation
An Engine Control Module (ECM) is used in conjunction with
one or two knock sensors in order to control detonation. On
a MEFI 5 ECM application no KS module will be found as it
is internal to the control module. A 5 volt reference is applied
to the knock sensor which has an internal resistance of about
100,000 ohms. This resistance will lower the applied voltage
to about half or 2.5 volts. When a knock is present, a small
AC voltage is produced by the knock sensor and transmitted
to the control module riding on top of the already existing
2.5 volts. An AC voltage monitor inside the control module
will detect the knock and trigger the control module to start
retarding the spark incrementally.

Distributor Replacement (HVS)
Removal Procedure
Notice: There are two procedures available to install the
distributor.
Use Installation Procedure 1 when the crankshaft has NOT
been rotated from the original position.
Use Installation Procedure 2 when any of the following
components are removed:
The intake manifold.
The cylinder head.
The camshaft.
The timing chain or sprockets.
The complete engine.
If the Malfunction Indicator Lamp turns on, and a Fault Code
sets after installing the distributor, this indicates an incorrectly
installed distributor.
Engine damage or distributor damage may occur. Use
Procedure 2 in order to install the distributor.
1. Turn OFF the ignition switch.
2. Remove the spark plug wires from the distributor cap.
3. Remove the electrical connector from the base of the
distributor.
4. Remove the two screws that hold the distributor cap to
the housing.
5. Replace these screws with new ones upon
re-installation.
6. Remove the distributor cap from the housing.
7. Use a grease pencil in order to note the position of the
rotor in relation to the distributor housing.
The mark is identied in the graphic with
the number 1.
8. Mark the distributor housing and the intake manifold
with a grease pencil.
Results Of Incorrect Operation
An open or short to ground in the crank position sensor (CKP)
circuit will cause the engine not to run. The ECM must have
the crank position sensor signal to read engine RPM.
A crank position sensor signal fault will cause no RPM signal
to be sent to the ECM. Therefore, your scan tool will not
exhibit an RPM reading during a cranking event. If you are not
reading an RPM signal during a cranking event, a possible
failure mode could be the crank position sensor.
The cam position sensor is used to determine engine position
and is mainly used during misre detection. If the cam position
sensor (CMP) open circuits or is shorted to ground, the engine
will still run. It is likely that crank (starting) times may increase;
however, the engine will still operate.
The following DTCs will be set for these sensors.

The alignment will not be exact.
If the driven gear is installed incorrectly, the
dimple will be approximately 180 degrees
opposite of the rotor segment when it is
installed in the distributor.
Notice: The OBD II ignition system distributor driven
gear and rotor can be installed in multiple positions.
In order to avoid mistakes, make sure to mark
the distributor in the following positions:
The distributor driven gear.
The distributor shaft.
The rotor holes for the same mounting
position upon reassembly.
Notice: Installing the driven gear 180 degrees out of
alignment, or locating the distributor rotor in the
wrong holes, may cause a no-start condition.
Premature engine wear and damage may result.
4. Using a long screw driver, align the oil pump drive
shaft to the drive tab of the distributor.
5. Guide the distributor into the engine.
Make sure that the at part on the distributor is facing
to the front of the engine.
6. Once the distributor is fully seated, the rotor segment
should be aligned with the pointer cast into the
distributor base.
This pointer should have number 8 cast into it,
indicating that the distributor is to be used on a
8 cylinder engine.
If the rotor segment does not come within a few
degrees of the pointer, the gear mesh between
the distributor and the camshaft may be off a
tooth or more.
If this is the case, repeat the procedure again in
order to achieve proper alignment.

Spark Plug Replacement
Tools Required
J 39358 Spark Plug Socket
Service Precautions
Allow the engine to cool before removing the spark plugs.
Attempting to remove the plugs from a hot engine may
cause the plug to seize, causing damage to the cylinder
head threads.
Clean the spark plug recess area before removing the
plug.
Failure to do so can result in engine damage due to
dirt or foreign material entering the cylinder head or
contamination of the cylinder head threads.
Contaminated threads may prevent proper seating of a
new plug.
Do not install the plugs that are either hotter or colder
than the heat range specied.
Using plugs of the wrong heat range may damage the
engine.
Removal Procedure
1. Turn OFF the ignition switch.
Notice: Twist the spark plug boot one-half turn in order to
release the boot. Pull on the spark plug boot only. Do not pull
on the spark plug wire or the wire could be damaged.
2. Remove the spark plug wires using a twisting motion
in order to release the boot from the spark plug.
The spark plug wires are numbered to assist in
re-assembly.
Notice: Use the J 39358 or the equivalent. Failure to do so
could cause cracking of the insulator and arcing inside the
plug, resulting in engine misre.
3. Remove the spark plugs using the J 39358.
4. Inspect each plug for wear.
Refer to Spark Plug Visual Diagnosis.
Notice: Be sure plug threads smoothly into cylinder head
and is fully seated. Use a thread chaser if necessary to
clean threads in cylinder head. Cross-threading or failing to
fully seat spark plug can cause overheating of plug, exhaust
blow-by, or thread damage. Follow the recommended torque
specications carefully. Over or under-tightening can also
cause severe damage to engine or spark plug.
1. Install the spark plugs.
Tighten
Tighten the spark plugs to 15 Nm (11 Ib ft).
2. Install the spark plug wires in their original locations.
Refer to Spark Plug Wire Harness Replacement.
Torque Specications
Distributor Hold Down 40 30
Coil Bracket Screws 22 16
Spark Plugs 15 11
5. Special care should be used when installing spark plug
boots to make sure the metal terminal within the boot
is fully seated on the spark plug terminal and the boot
has not moved on the wire. If boot to wire movement
has occurred, the boot will give a fast visual impression
of being fully seated. A good check to make sure the
boots have been properly installed is to push sideways
on them. If they have been correctly installed, a stiff
boot with only slight looseness will be noted. If the
terminal has not been properly seated on the spark
plug, only the resistance of the rubber boot will be felt
when pushing sideways.
Replacement
Wire routings must be kept intact during service and followed
exactly. If wires have been disconnected, or replacement
of the wires is necessary, route the wires in their original
positions. Failure to route the wires properly may result in
drivability problems.
Spark Plug Replacement
2. Spark plug wires and boots.
Turn each boot one-half turn before removing it.
Label the plug wires if the identication numbers
have worn off.
3. Spark plugs.
Inspect
Each plug for wear and gap.
Install or Connect
1. Spark plugs. Torque to 15 Nm (11 lb.ft.).
2. Wire and boot assemblies. Refer to Spark Plug Wiring
and Boots below for precautions.
Spark Plug Wiring And Boots
Precautions
1. Twist boots one-half turn before removing.
2. When removing the boot, do not use pliers or other
tools that may tear the boot.
3. Do not force anything between the wire and the boot,
or through the silicone jacket of the wiring.
4. Do not pull on the wires to remove the boot. Pull on
the boot, or use a tool designed for this purpose.

Section 5
Port Fuel Injection (PFI) Diagnosis

This section will be used to perform diagnostic procedures on the System 5 equipped engines. The section describes system circuits
and diagnostic tables used to diagnose the circuits. It will be used to correct Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) by following tables for
scan tool use. This section contains the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check that is the rst step to perform before any further
diagnostics or repairs are made to this system.
The assumption is made that on all diagnostic tables, the engine is equipped with a System 5 ECM, wiring harness, fuel components
and GM sensors and ignition components. The wiring schematics and circuit identications are for the System 5 originally equipped
wiring harness.
The diagnostic tables and voltages shown are prepared with the requirement that the system functioned correctly at the time of
assembly and that there are no multiple failures.

Cautions and Notices and Special Testing Procedures
Using Fused Jumper Wires
Tools Required
J 36169-A Fused Jumper Wire
Important: A fused jumper may not protect solid
state components from being damaged.
The J 36169-A includes small clamp connectors
that provide adaptation to most connectors without
damage. This fused jumper wire is supplied with
a 20-A fuse which may not be suitable for some
circuits. Do not use a fuse with a higher rating than
the fuse that protects the circuit being tested.
Battery Disconnect Caution
Caution: Before servicing any electrical component,
the ignition key must be in the OFF or LOCK
position and all electrical loads must be OFF, unless
instructed otherwise in the procedures. If a tool
or equipment could easily come in contact with a
live exposed electrical terminal, also disconnect
the negative battery cable. Failure to follow these
precautions may cause personal injury and/or
damage to the vehicle or its components.
Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electronic components used in control systems are
often designed to carry very low voltage, and are
very susceptible to damage caused by electrostatic
discharge. It is possible for less than 100 volts of
static electricity to cause damage to some electronic
components. By comparison, it takes as much as
4,000 volts for a person to feel the zap of a static
discharge.
There are several ways a person can become
statically charged. The most common methods of
charging are by friction and by induction. An example
of charging by friction is a person sliding across a
seat, in which a charge of as much as 25,000 volts
can build up. Charging by induction occurs when a
person with well insulated shoes stands near a highly
charged object and momentarily touches ground.
Charges of the same polarity are drained off, leaving
the person highly charged with the opposite polarity.
Static charges of either type can cause damage.
Therefore, it is important to use care when handling
and testing electronic components.

Diagnostic Information and
Procedures
A Diagnostic Starting Point - Engine Controls
Begin the system diagnosis with A Diagnostic System Check-
Engine Controls. The Diagnostic System Check will provide the
following information:
The ability of the control module to communicate
through the serial data circuit.
The identication of any stored Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTCs) and Logged Warnings.
The use of the Diagnostic System Check will identify the correct
procedure for diagnosing the system.
A Diagnostic System Check - Engine Controls
Description
The Diagnostic System Check is an organized approach
to identifying a condition that is created by a malfunction
in the electronic engine control system. The Diagnostic
System Check must be the starting point for any
driveability concern. This procedure directs the service
technician to the next logical step in order to diagnose the
concern. Understanding and correctly using the diagnostic
table reduces diagnostic time and prevents unnecessary
replacement of parts.
Test Description
Number(s) below refer to the Step number(s) on the Diagnostic
Table:
1. The MIL should be ON steady with the ignition ON, engine
OFF. If not, the No Malfunction Indicator Lamp Test
Procedure should be used to isolate the malfunction.
3. Checks the serial data circuit and ensures that the ECM is
able to transmit serial data.
5. If the engine will not start, the Engine Cranks But Will Not
Run diagnostic procedure should be used to diagnose the
condition.
8. A scan tool parameter which is not within the typical
range may help to isolate the area which is causing the
problem.

System Relay Diagnosis
Distributor Ignition (DI) System Check
An intermittent may be caused by a poor connection, rubbed
through wire insulation or a wire broken inside the insulation.
Check for the following items:
Poor connection or damaged harness. Inspect the ECM

harness and connectors for improper mating, broken
locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, poor
terminal to wire connection and damaged harness.
The tach needs to be disconnected while testing the

ignition system. You will also need a place to check
coil trigger voltage. By disconnecting the 2-wire boat
harness (gray and purple wires), this will give you a
test terminal to check coil trigger voltage as needed in
several steps. After tach is disconnected, try starting the
engine. If the engine starts, check for a short to ground
in the boat tach circuit.
Test Description
Number(s) below refer to the Step number(s) on the
Circuit Description
The Distributor Ignition (DI) system receives supply voltage
from the system relay through CKT 902 to the ignition coil
gray connector B. Inside the ignition coil, the gray connector
terminal B is connected to the black connector terminal
B. Supply voltage is delivered from the ignition coil black
connector terminal B to the distributor Ignition Control (IC)
module + terminal through CKT 3.
Inside the distributor, the pick-up coil and pole piece will
produce a voltage signal for cylinder spark. The voltage
signals are processed in the IC module and sent to the ECM.
The ECM will decide if the engine is in the cranking or running
mode and adjust timing accordingly. The voltages or signals
are sent between the ECM and the IC module through CKTs
423, 430 and 424. CKT 453 is the ground circuit.
The IC module will send the voltage signal to the ignition coil
black connector terminal A through CKT 121. The signal will
trigger the coil creating secondary spark to be produced. This
secondary spark is sent to the distributor by a high tension
lead.

performed? Go to Step 2 System Check
1. Check spark plug wires for open circuits, cracks in
insulation, or improper seating of terminals at spark
plugs, distributor cap, and coil tower before proceeding
with this table.
2. Disconnect 2-wire boat harness (gray and purple wires).
3. Install a temporary jumper wire between the 2 purple

recommendation.
Is adequate spark present? Go to Step 18 Go to Step 5
Diagnostic Table:
2. Two wires are checked to ensure that an open is not
present in a spark plug wire.
4. A spark indicates the problem must be in the distributor
cap, rotor or coil output wire.
6. Normally, there should be battery voltage at the C and
+ terminals. Low voltage would indicate an open or
a high resistance circuit from the distributor to the coil
or ignition switch. If C terminal voltage was low, but
+ terminal voltage is 10 volts or more, circuit from C
terminal to ignition coil is open or primary winding of the
ignition coil is open.
8. Checks for a shorted module or grounded circuit from the
ignition coil to the module. The distributor module should
be turned OFF, so normal voltage should be about 12
volts. If the module is turned ON, the voltage would be
low, but above 1 volt. This could cause the ignition coil to
fail from excessive heat. With an open ignition coil primary
winding, a small amount of voltage will leak through the
module from the batt to the tach terminal.
11. Applying a voltage (1.35-1.50 volts) to the module
terminal P should turn the module ON and the tach
voltage should drop to about 7-9 volts. This test will
determine whether the module or coil is faulty or if the
pick-up coil is not generating the proper signal to turn the
module ON. This test can be performed by using a DC
test battery with a rating of 1.5 volts (Such as AA, C, or
D cell). The battery must be a known good battery with
a voltage of over 1.35 volts.
12. This should turn the module OFF and cause a spark.
If no spark occurs, the fault is most likely in the ignition
coil because most module problems would have been
found before this point in the procedure.
1. Reconnect distributor 4-wire connector.
5 recommendation from the coil tower using a known
good coil wire.
1. Disconnect distributor 2-wire C/+ connector harness.

Fuel Pump Relay Circuit Diagnosis
Circuit Description
When the ignition switch is ON, the ECM activates the
electric fuel pump. The fuel pump remains ON as long
as the ECM receives reference pulses from the ignition
system. If there are no reference pulses, the ECM turns
the fuel pump OFF after about 2 seconds. The pump
delivers fuel to the fuel rail and injectors, then to the
pressure regulator, where the system pressure remains
at 379-427 kPa (55-62 psi) while the fuel pump is running.
Excess fuel returns to the fuel tank. When the engine is
stopped, a scan tool in the output controls function can
turn ON the fuel pump.
Improper fuel system pressure results in one or many of
the following symptoms:
Cranks but will not run
Cuts out, may feel like an ignition problem
Poor fuel economy
Loss of power
Hesitation
DTCs

Fuel System Diagnosis
Circuit Description
When the ignition switch is ON, the ECM activates the
electric fuel pump. The fuel pump remains ON as long
as the ECM receives reference pulses from the ignition
system. If there are no reference pulses, the ECM turns
the fuel pump OFF after about 2 seconds.
The electric pump delivers fuel through an in-pipe fuel
lter to the fuel rail assembly. The fuel pump provides
fuel at a pressure above the pressure needed by the
fuel injectors. A fuel pressure regulator, attached to the
fuel rail, keeps the fuel available to the fuel injectors at a
regulated pressure. Unused fuel returns to the fuel tank by
a seperate fuel return pipe.
Test Description
diagnostic table:
2. When the ignition switch is ON and the fuel pump
is running, the fuel pressure indicated by the fuel
pressure gauge should read 379-427 kPa (55-62
psi). The spring pressure inside the fuel pressure
regulator controls the fuel pressure.
3. A fuel system that drops more than 14 kPa (2 psi) in
10 minutes has a leak in one or more of the following
areas:
The fuel pump check valve.
The fuel pump ex pipe.
The valve or valve seat within the fuel pressure
regulator.
The fuel injector(s).
4. A fuel system that drops more than 14 kPa (2 psi)
in 10 minutes after being relieved to 69 kPa (10 psi)
indicates a leaking fuel pump check valve.
5. Fuel pressure that drops off during acceleration,
cruise or hard cornering may cause a lean condition.
A lean condition can cause a loss of power, surging
or misre.
8. When the engine is at idle, the manifold pressure is
low (high vacuum). This low pressure (high vacuum)
is applied to the fuel pressure regulator diaphragm.
The low pressure (high vacuum) will offset the
pressure being applied to the fuel pressure regulator
diaphragm by the spring inside the fuel pressure
regulator. When this happens, the result is lower fuel
pressure. The fuel pressure at idle will vary slightly
as the barometric pressure changes, but the fuel
pressure at idle should always be less than the fuel
pressure noted in step 2 with the engine OFF.
12. A rich condition may result from the fuel pressure
being above 427 kPa (62 psi). Driveability conditions
associated with rich conditions can include hard
starting followed by black smoke and a strong sulfur
smell in the exhaust.
13. This test determines if the high fuel pressure is due
to a restricted fuel return pipe or if the high fuel
pressure is due to a faulty fuel pressure regulator.
15. A lean condition may result from the fuel pressure
being below 379 kPa (55 psi). Driveability conditions
associated with lean conditions can include hard
starting (when the engine is cold), hesitation, poor
driveability, lack of power, surging and misring.
Notice: Do not allow the fuel pressure to exceed 517 kPa
(75 psi). Excessive pressure may damage the fuel
pressure regulator.
16. Restricting the fuel return pipe with the J 37287 fuel
pipe shut-off adapter causes the fuel pressure to rise
above the regulated pressure. Using a scan tool to
pressurize the fuel system, the fuel pressure should
rise above 427 kPa (62 psi) as the valve on the fuel
pipe shut-off adapter connected to the fuel return
pipe becomes partially closed.
22. Check the spark plug associated with a particular
fuel injector for fouling or saturation in order to
determine if that particular fuel injector is leaking. If
checking the spark plug associated with a particular
fuel injector for fouling or saturation does not
determine that a particular fuel injector is leaking,
use the following procedure.
1. Remove the fuel rail. Refer to Fuel Rail
Assembly Replacement.
2. Reinstall the crossover pipe to the right fuel rail.
Refer to Fuel Rail Assembly Replacement.
3. Connect the fuel feed pipe and the fuel return
pipe to the fuel rail. Refer to Fuel Rail Assembly
Replacement.
4. Lift the fuel rail just enough to leave the fuel
injector nozzles in the fuel injector ports.
Caution: In order to reduce the risk of re and
personal injury that may result from fuel spraying on
the engine, verify that the fuel rail is positioned over
the fuel injector ports. Also verify that the fuel injector
retaining clips ar intact.
5. Pressurize the fuel system by using the scan
tool fuel pump enable.
6. Visually and physically inspect the fuel injector
nozzles for leaks.

1
Caution: Wrap a shop towel around the fuel pressure
connection in order to reduce the risk of re and
personal injury. The towel will absorb any fuel leakage
that occurs during the connection of the fuel pressure
gauge. Place the towel in an approved container when
the connection of the fuel pressure gauge is complete.
2. Install the J 34730-1A fuel pressure gauge.
3. Place the bleed hose of the fuel pressure gauge into
2 an approved gasoline container.
4. Turn the ignition ON leaving the engine OFF.
5. Bleed the air out of the fuel pressure gauge.
6. Turn the ignition OFF for 10 seconds.
7. Turn the ignition ON leaving the engine OFF.
Important: The fuel pump will run for approximately
2 seconds. Cycle the ignition as necessary in order to
achieve the highest possible fuel pressure.
8. Observe the fuel pressure with the fuel pump running. 379-427 kPa
Is the fuel pressure within the specied limits? (55-62 psi) Go to Step 3 Go to Step 12
Important: The fuel pressure may vary slightly when the
fuel pump stops running. After the fuel pump stops

running, the fuel pressure should stabilize and remain
constant.
Does the fuel pressure drop more than the specied
value in 10 minutes? Go to Step 10 Go to Step 4
Relieve the fuel pressure to the rst specied value.
4 Does the fuel pressure drop more than the second 69 kPa (10 psi)
specied value in 10 minutes? 14 kPa (2 psi) Go to Step 19 Go to Step 5

5
Do you suspect the fuel pressure of dropping-off during
acceleration, cruise or hard cornering? Go to Step 6 Go to Step 8

Idle Air Control Functional Test
Circuit Description
The ECM controls idle speed to a calibrated desired RPM
based on sensor inputs and actual engine RPM. The ECM uses
four (2) circuits to move the throttle blade in the electronic throttle
body in order to command Idle Air Control (IAC) function. The
movement of the throttle blade varies the amount of air ow
bypassing the throttle plates. The ECM controls idle speed by
determining the position of the throttle blade.
Diagnostic Aids
An intermittent may be caused by a poor connection, rubbed
through wire insulation or a wire broken inside the insulation.
Check for the following items:
Poor connection or damaged harness. Inspect the ECM

harness and connectors for improper mating, broken locks,
improperly formed or damaged terminals, poor terminal to
wire connection and damaged harness.
Check for vacuum leaks, disconnected or brittle vacuum

hoses, cuts, etc. Examine manifold and throttle body gaskets
for proper seal. Check for cracked intake manifold.
Check for poor connections, opens or short to grounds in

CKTs 581, 582, 682, 683, 684, and 687. This may result
in improper idle control.
A throttle blade which is frozen and will not respond to the

ECM, a throttle stop screw which has been tampered with,
or a damaged throttle body or linkage may cause improper
idle.
Test Description

SPN 100 FMI 3 - Oil Pressure Voltage High
Circuit Description
The engine oil pressure (EOP) sensor changes resistance based on engine oil pressure. The ECM monitors the signal
circuit of the EOP sensor. The EOP sensor has the following circuits:
5-volt reference circuit
Low reference circuit
EOP sensor signal circuit
The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5volts to the EOP sensor on the 5-volt reference circuit. The ECM also
provides a ground on the low reference circuit. The EOP sensor provides a signal to the ECM on the EOP sensor signal
circuit which is relative to the pressure changes in the engine oil pressure. When the oil pressure is high, the sensor
resistance is high, and the ECM senses a high voltage. When the oil pressure is low, the sensor voltage is low, and the
ECM senses a low signal voltage. The ECM monitors the EOP sensor signal for voltage outside of the normal range.
If the ECM detects an EOP sensor signal voltage that is excessively high, SPN100 FMI3 sets.
The ECM sends the engine oil pressure information to the IPC (Dash) via the CAN BUS J1939 data circuit.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:

SPN 106, FMI 3 MAP Sensor High
Circuit Description
The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor responds to pressure changes in the intake manifold (Vacuum). The
pressure changes occur based on the engine load. The MAP sensor has the following circuits:
MAP sensor signal circuit
The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 volts to the MAP sensor on the 5-volt reference circuit. The ECM also
provides a ground on the low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal to the ECM on the MAP sensor signal
circuit which is relative to the pressure changes in the manifold. The ECM should detect a low signal voltage about 1.0-1.5
volts at a low MAP, such as during an idle or a deceleration. The ECM should detect a high signal voltage about 4.0-4.5
volts at a high MAP, such as the ignition is ON, with the engine OFF, or at a wide open throttle (WOT). The MAP sensor is
also used in order to determine the barometric pressure (BARO). This occurs when the ignition switch is turned ON, with
the engine OFF. The BARO reading may also be updated whenever the engine is operated at WOT. The ECM monitors the
MAP sensor signal for voltage outside of the normal range.
If the ECM detects a MAP sensor signal voltage that is excessively high, this DTC will set.

SPN 110, FMI 3 Coolant Sensor High (ECT Sensor Circuit High Voltage / Low Temperature)
Circuit Description
The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is a variable resistor that measures the temperature of the engine coolant.
The ECT sensor has a signal circuit and a low reference circuit. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5volts to the
ECT signal circuit and a ground for the ECT low reference circuit. When the ECT is cold, the sensor resistance is high.
When the ECT increases, the sensor resistance decreases. With high sensor resistance, the ECM detects a high voltage
on the ECT signal circuit. With lower sensor resistance, the ECM detects a lower voltage on the ECT signal circuit. If the
ECM detects an excessively high ECT signal voltage, which is a low temperature indication, SPN110, FMI3 sets.
DTC Descriptor
SPN 110, FMI 3 Coolant Sensor High
The engine has been running for more than 10seconds.
SPN110, FMI3 runs continuously when the above condition is met.
The ECM detects that the ECT sensor parameter is less than 31C (24F) for approximately 3 seconds. Note: Exact
temperature and duration may vary depending on ECM calibration.
The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and does not fail. After
the diagnostic runs and passes, there may be a timed delay before the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) turns OFF.
An active DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
A history DTC clears after 25 consecutive run cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related
diagnostic. Each run cycle must last a minimum of 10 seconds.
Diagnostic Aids
If a short to a separate 5-volt source occurs, this DTC may set.
After starting the engine, the ECT should rise steadily, then stabilize near the thermostat opening temperature.
Use the Temperature vs. Resistance table to test the ECT sensor. A skewed sensor could result in poor driveability
conditions. Refer to Temperature vs Resistance (Page 5-52).

SPN 636, FMI 2 Crank Signal Fault
Circuit Description
The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor works in conjunction with the 4X reluctor trigger wheel on the crankshaft. Each tooth
on the reluctor wheel is equally spaced at 4 tooth spacing, for the reference sync pulse. The engine control module (ECM)
provides a 5-volt reference to the sensor, as well as a low reference, and a signal circuit. As the crankshaft rotates, the
reluctor trigger wheel interrupts a magnetic field produced by a magnet internal to the sensor. The CKP sensor internal
circuitry detects this interruption of the magnetic field, and produces an ON/OFF DC voltage of varying frequency. The
frequency of the CKP sensor output signal is dependent upon crankshaft speed. The ECM uses each CKP output signal
to determine crankshaft speed, identify crankshaft position, and to detect engine misfire. If the ECM detects that there is
no output signal from the CKP sensor, then SPN 636, FMI 2 will set.
DTC Descriptor

SPN 723, FMI 2 Cam Signal Fault
Circuit Description
The camshaft position (CMP) sensor works in conjunction with the 1X reluctor trigger wheel on the camshaft gear. The
reluctor trigger wheel on the camshaft gear contains a pattern around the circumference, consisting of 1 wide tooth. The
engine control module (ECM) provides a 5-volt reference to the sensor, as well as a low reference and a signal circuit.
As the camshaft gear rotates, the reluctor trigger wheel interrupts a magnetic field produced by a magnet internal to the
sensor. The CMP sensor internal circuitry detects this interruption of the magnetic field, and produces an ON/OFF DC
voltage of varying frequency. The frequency of the CMP sensor output signal is dependent upon camshaft speed. The
ECM will recognize wide tooth pattern to identify camshaft position, or which cylinder is in compression and which is in
exhaust. If the ECM detects that there is no output signal from the CMP sensor, then SPN 723 FMI 2 will set.

SPN 65541 FMI 3 EST A Short High

SPN 65541 FMI 5 EST A Open
Circuit Description
The ignition system on this engine uses an ignition coil module to drive the ignition coil. The engine control module (ECM)
controls the spark event for each cylinder through an ignition control (IC) circuit. When the ECM commands the IC circuit
ON, electrical current will flow through the primary winding of the ignition coil, creating a magnetic field. When a spark
event is requested, the ECM will command the IC circuit OFF, interrupting current flow through the primary winding. The
magnetic field created by the primary winding will collapse across the secondary coil winding, producing a high voltage
across the spark plug electrodes. The ECM uses information from the crankshaft position (CKP) and the camshaft position
(CMP) sensor for sequencing and timing of the spark events. The ignition coil module has the following circuits:
An ignition voltage circuit
A ground circuit
An IC circuit
A low reference circuit
If the ECM detects that the IC circuit has an incorrect voltage level, SPN 65541 will set.

DTC Descriptor
SPN 65551, FMI 2: Knock Sensor 1 (KS) Fault
SPN 65552, FMI 2: Knock Sensor 2 (KS) Fault
Circuit/System Description
The knock sensor (KS) system enables the engine control module (ECM) to control the ignition timing for the best possible
performance while protecting the engine from potentially damaging levels of detonation. The ECM monitors two separate
KS, one on each side of the engine block. Each KS produces an AC voltage that varies, depending on the vibration levels
detected during engine operation. The ECM adjusts the spark timing based on the amplitude and frequency of each KS
signal. The ECM receives the KS signal through two different signal circuits. Each KS ground is supplied by the ECM
through a low reference circuit. The ECM uses the KS signal to calculate the average voltage, then assign a voltage range
value. The ECM will then monitor for a normal KS signal within the assigned voltage range.
SPN 65550, 65551, 65552 run continuously when the engine speed is greater than 1,800RPM, and the manifold
absolute pressure (MAP) is greater than 55kPa.

PRELIMINARY
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
The control module turns OFF the MIL after consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
A history DTC clears after 25consecutive warm up cycles if no failures are reported by this diagnostic.
A current DTC last test failed clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
Diagnostic Aids
Inspect the KS for physical damage.
Inspect the KS for proper installation. A KS that is loose or over-torque may cause a DTC to set. The KS should be
free of thread sealant.
The KS mounting surface should be free of burs, casting flash and, foreign material.
This test procedure requires that the vehicle battery has passed a load test and is completely charged.
When disconnecting electrical connectors or removing fuses and relays from a fuse block, always inspect the
component electrical terminals for corrosion, and the mating electrical terminals for tightness.

SPN 65601, FMI 2 ETC TPS 2 Range (Electronic Throttle Control, Throttle Position Sensor 2
Range)
Circuit Description
The throttle position (TP) sensors 1 and 2 are located within the throttle body assembly. The ECM supplies the TP sensors
with a common 5-volt reference circuit and a common low reference circuit. Each TP sensor has an individual signal
circuit, which provides the ECM with a signal voltage that changes in proportion to the throttle plate angle. When the
throttle plate is in the closed position, TP sensor 1 signal voltage is near the low reference and TP sensor 2 signal voltage
is near the 5-volt reference. As the throttle is opened, TP sensor 1 signal voltage increases and TP sensor 2 signal
voltage decreases.
If the ECM detects that TP sensor 2 signal voltage is not within the correct range, SPN 65601, FMI 2 sets.
DTC Descriptor
SPN 65601, FMI 2 ETC TPS 2 Range
The ignition is ON, with the engine OFF, or the engine is operating.
SPN65601 runs continuously when the above conditions are met.
The ECM detects that the TP sensor2 signal voltage is less than 0.3 volt.
The ECM detects that the TP sensor2 signal voltage is more than 4.7 volts.
Note: Exact voltages may vary depending on ECM calibration.
The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
The ECM commands the system to operate in the Reduced Engine Power mode.
The ECM commands the throttle actuator to move the throttle plate to an idle position.
The throttle actuator does not respond to input from the Throttle-Shift Control (T-SC).
Under certain conditions the ECM commands the engine OFF.

The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will remain illuminated through the remainder of the ignition cycle. After turning
the key off, the MIL will not illuminate on the next malfunction-free ignition cycle.
An active DTC clears on the next ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and passes.
A history DTC clears after 25 consecutive run cycles, if no failures are reported by this diagnostic. Each run cycle
must last a minimum of 10 seconds.
Clear the history DTC with a scan tool.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers in the diagnostic table.
3, 5,& 23. More than one electronic throttle control (ETC) system related DTC may set. This is due to the many redundant
tests run continuously on this system. Locating and repairing one individual condition may correct more than one DTC.
Keep this in mind when reviewing captured DTC info.

SPN 65604, FMI 2 ETC PPS 2 Range
(Electronic Throttle Control, Pedal Position Sensor 2 Range)
Circuit Description
The pedal position (PP) sensors 1 and 2 are located within the throttle-shift control (T-SC) assembly. The engine control
module (ECM) supplies each PP sensor with a 5-volt reference circuit and a low reference circuit. Each PP sensor has
an individual signal circuit, which provides the ECM with a signal voltage that changes in proportion to the PP sensor (and
T-SC lever) position. When the T-SC is in the locked-neutral (idle) position, the PP sensor position is zero percent. As the
T-SC lever is moved away from the locked-neutral position, the PP sensor position increases.
At a PP sensor position of zero percent, PP sensor 1 signal voltage is near the low reference, and PP sensor 2 signal
voltage is near the 5-volt reference. As the PP sensor position increases, PP sensor 1 signal voltage increases and PP
sensor 2 signal voltage decreases.
If the ECM detects that PP sensor 2 signal voltage is not within the correct range, SPN 65604, FMI 2 sets.
DTC Descriptor
The ignition is ON.
SPN65581, SPN65616 are not set.
SPN 65604, FMI 2 runs continuously when the above conditions are met.

SPN 65615, FMI 7 ETC Actuation
(Electronic Throttle Control Actuation)
Circuit Description
The commanded throttle position is compared to the actual throttle position. The commanded throttle position is based
on input from the Pedal Position (PP) sensors 1 and 2 in the Throttle-Shift Control (T-SC) housing. Actual throttle
position is detected by the Throttle Position (TP) sensors 1 and 2 in the throttle body. The commanded and actual throttle
positions should be within a calibrated range of each other. The engine control module (ECM) continuously monitors the
commanded and actual throttle positions. This DTC sets if the commanded and actual positions differ by more than the
allowable range.
DTC Descriptor

the DTC.
An active DTC clears on the next ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and passes. See Note above, in Conditions
for setting the DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
The throttle plate is spring loaded to a slightly open position. The throttle plate should be open approximately 2025
percent. This is referred to as the rest position. The throttle plate should not be completely closed nor should it be open
any more than the specified amount. The throttle plate should move open and to the closed position without binding under
the normal spring pressure. The throttle should NOT be free to move open or closed WITHOUT spring pressure. Replace
the throttle body if any of these conditions are found.
Inspect for mechanical conditions or binding that may be temperature related. Components may not move freely in
extreme heat or cold due to the presence of contaminants or ice formation.
Important: Operating the throttle plate with the Throttle Blade Control function of the scan tool may cause additional
DTCs to set. Do not attempt to diagnose DTCs set during this function.
The scan tool has the ability to operate the throttle control system using special functions. Actuate the throttle plate using
the Throttle Blade Control function of the scan tool. This function will operate the throttle plate through the entire range in
order to determine if the throttle body and system operate correctly.
Check for the following conditions:
Use the J 35616 Connector Test Adapter Kit for any test that requires probing the engine control module (ECM)
harness connector or a component harness connector.
Poor connections at the ECM or at the componentInspect the harness connectors for a poor terminal to wire
connection. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections for the proper procedure.
For intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections.
Test Description
8.& 9. When the ignition is turned ON, the ECM operates the Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) motor to verify the integrity
of the system prior to start-up. This can be seen by the momentary flash of the test lamp as the ignition is turned ON.

SPN 65616, FMI 12 ETC Process
(Electronic Throttle Control Process)
Circuit Description
The throttle actuator control (TAC) system uses two pedal position (PP) sensors to monitor the pedal position. Two
processors are also used to monitor the TAC system data. The engine control module (ECM) performs an intrusive test in
order to detect that the PP signals are not shorted together. The ECM accomplishes this by pulling the PP sensor2 low
momentarily and looking for sensor1 to also be low. The TAC system also performs this test on the throttle position (TP)
sensors. This diagnostic monitors the transistor used to pull one pedal and one throttle sensor to ground simultaneously.
Additionally, both processors monitor each others data to verify that the indicated PP calculation is correct.
If the transistor does not toggle within a calibrated period, or the indicated PP calculation is incorrect, SPN 65616, FMI 12
sets.

Circuit Description
The MEFI system relay is a normally open relay. The relay armature is held in the open position by spring tension. Battery
positive voltage is supplied directly to the relay coil and the armature contact at all times. The engine control module
(ECM) supplies the ground path to the relay coil control circuit via an internal integrated circuit called an output driver
module (ODM). The ODM output control is configured to operate as a low side driver for the main relay. The ODM for
the main relay also incorporates a fault detection circuit, which is continuously monitored by the ECM. When the ECM
commands the main relay ON, ignition voltage is supplied to the following circuits
ECM Pin J2-13 & J2-28
Injectors
Coil & Ignition Module
The ignition voltage that is supplied to the ECM through the Powertrain (MEFI System) fuse, provides power to the internal
ECM circuits associated with the throttle actuator control (TAC) operation. The ECM also monitors the voltage level on the
ignition voltage circuit to confirm that the main relay contacts have closed.

1. With the ignition ON, engine OFF, command the MEFI System relay ON and OFF several times using the scan tool
output control function. If this function is not available on the scan tool, turn the key ON and OFF. You should either hear
or feel the relay click with each command.
2. With the ignition OFF, connect one lead of a test lamp to ground, and probe both sides of each of the following fuses:
Powertrain (MEFI System) Relay Fuse (Connected to MEFI System Relay Pin 30)
ECM Battery Fuse (Connected to MEFI System Relay Pin 86)
The lamp should illuminate on at least one side of each fuse, at all times. If not, check the main circuit breaker, and
continue with Circuit/System Testing.
3. With the ignition ON, engine OFF, ignition voltage should be present on the MEFI System Relay Pin 87, enabling the
following circuits:
ECM Pin J2-13 & J2-28
Injectors
The test lamp should illuminate on at least one test point of each circuit. If the test lamp does not illuminate continue with
Circuit/System Testing.
If the boat passes the Circuit/System Verification test, operate the boat within the Conditions for Running the DTC. The
other option is to refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections.
Circuit/System Testing
1. With the ignition OFF, remove the Powertrain (MEFI System) relay.
2. With the ignition ON, measure for battery positive voltage (B+) between the relay coil voltage supply circuit (pin 86) and
ground.
If the voltage measures less than B+, repair the open or high resistance in the circuit to the relay coil. All wire circuit
resistance should measure less than 2ohms.
3. Measure for voltage between the relay coil control circuit (pin 85) and ground.
If voltage is measured on the control circuit of the relay, test for a short to voltage or a faulty ECM.
4. Connect a test lamp between the battery positive voltage supply circuit (pin 86) of the relay coil and the relay coil
control circuit (pin 85). Use a scan tool to command the main relay ON and OFF. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF
when toggling between the commanded states.
If the test lamp stays ON all the time, test for a short to ground on the relay coil control circuit or a faulty ECM.
If the test lamp stays OFF all the time, test for an open or high resistance on the relay coil control circuit or a faulty ECM.
All wire circuit resistance should measure less than 2ohms.
5. Measure for B+ between the relay armature supply circuit (pin 30), and ground.
If the voltage measures less than B+, repair the open or high resistance in the circuit to the relay armature. All wire circuit
resistance should measure less than 2ohms.
6. Connect a 20-amp fused jumper wire between the B+ termination (Pin 30) and the ignition voltage terminal (Pin 87) of
the main relay. With a test lamp, test for voltage on both test points of the following circuits:
ECM Pin J2-13 & J2-28
Injectors
If the test lamp fails to illuminate on one test point of each circuits, repair the open or high resistance between the
termination and the main relay. All wire circuit resistance should measure 2ohms or less.
PRELIMINARY
Component Testing
Measure for 70110ohms between terminals85 and 86 of the relay.
If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the relay.
Measure for infinite resistance between terminals30 and 86 of the relay.
If continuity is detected, replace the relay.
Connect a 20-amp fused jumper wire from the battery positive cable at the battery, to relay terminal85. Connect a
jumper wire from the negative battery cable at the battery, to relay terminal86. Measure for less than 2ohms between
terminals30 and 87 of the relay, with a DMM.
If the resistance measures more than 2ohms, replace the relay.

SPN 84, FMI 2 - Vessel Speed Sensor (VSS) Circuit
Circuit Description
The vessel speed is provided to the ECM by means of the Vessel Speed Sensor (VSS). The sensor is a paddle wheel type and is
usually located through hull or attached to the transom. The thru-hull transducer produces a 12 volt digital signal whenever the vessel
is moving. The number of pulses increases with vessel speed. The ECM converts this signal into MPH, which can be monitored
with a scan tool. This information may be used by the ECM for several reasons such as governing the vessel speed to a maximum
speed.
The sensor is a three-wire sensor. Terminal C of the sensor is provided a ground on CKT 814 through the ECM. Terminal
A of the sensor is provided ignition voltage. Terminal B of the sensor is the signal to the ECM through CKT 757.
Diagnostic Aids
Poor connection in harness. Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly
formed or damaged terminals and poor terminal to wire connection.
Check VSS circuits for proper connections and the harness is routed properly.
After repairs, clear DTCs following Clear DTCs Procedure. Failure to do so may result in DTCs not properly being
cleared.
Test Description
2. This step determines if the VSS is receiving ignition voltage.
3. This step checks for a good ground circuit.

the vessel. If SPN 84 FMI 2 returns, repair faulty ECM

connections or replace faulty ECM.
Circuit Description
The fuel level sensor changes resistance based on the weight of the fuel in the fuel tank. The ECM monitors the signal circuit
of the fuel level sensor.
When the fuel weight is high, the sensor resistance is high, and the ECM senses a high signal voltage. When the fuel weight
is low, the sensor resistance is low, and the ECM senses a low signal voltage.
The ECM sends the fuel level information to the IPC (dash) via the CAN BUS J1939 data circuit.
Diagnostic Aids
Poor connection at ECM. Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly
formed or damaged terminals and poor terminal to wire connection.
Damaged harness. Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the fuel level sensor
display on the scan tool while moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the fuel level sensor. A change in the
fuel level sensor display will indicate the location of the fault.
The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the fuel level reading.
After repairs, clear DTCs following Clear DTCs Procedure in the General Information section. Failure to do so may result
in DTCs not properly being cleared.

Preliminary
Symptoms
Important Preliminary Checks
Before Starting
Before using this section you should have performed the
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check and determined
that:
The ECM and MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) are
operating correctly.
There are no DTC(s) stored.
Verify the customer complaint and locate the correct symptom
in the table of contents. Check the items indicated under that
symptom.
Visual / Physical Check
Several of the symptom procedures call for a careful Visual /
Physical Check. The importance of this step cannot be stressed
too strongly - it can lead to correcting a problem without further
checks and can save valuable time. This check should include:
ECM grounds and sensor connections for being clean, tight
and in their proper location.
Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks and proper connections.
Check thoroughly for any type of leak or restriction.
Air leaks at throttle body mounting area and intake manifold
sealing surfaces.
Ignition wires for cracking, hardness, proper routing and
carbon tracking.
Wiring for proper connections, pinches and cuts. If wiring
harness or connector repair is necessary, refer to General
Information section for correct procedure.
Moi sture i n pri mary or secondary i gni ti on ci rcui t
connections.
Salt corrosion on electrical connections and exposed throttle
body linkages.
Intermittents
Important: Problem may or may not turn ON the Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (MIL) or store a DTC. DO NOT use the Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) tables for intermittent problems. The fault
must be present to locate the problem.
Most intermittent problems are caused by faulty electrical
connections or wiring. Perform careful visual / physical check.
Poor mating of the connector halves, or a terminal not fully
seated in the connector body (backed out or loose).
Improperly formed or damaged terminals and / or
connectors.
All connector terminals in the problem circuit should be
carefully checked for proper contact tension.
Poor terminal to wire connection (crimping). This requires
removing the terminal from the connector body to check.
Refer to Wiring Harness Service in the General Information
section.
An intermittent MIL with no stored DTC may be caused by the
following:
Ignition coil shorted to ground and arcing at ignition wires
or plugs.
MIL wire to ECM shorted to ground.
Poor ECM gounds.
Check for an electrical system interference caused by a
sharp electrical surge. Normally, the problem will occur when
the faulty component is operated.
Check for improper installation of electrical options such as
lights, ship to shore radios, sonar, etc.
Check that knock sensor wires are routed away from spark
plug wires, ignition system components and charging system
components.
Check for secondary ignition components shorted to ground,
or an open ignition coil ground (coil mounting brackets).
Check for components internally shorted to ground such as
starters, alternators or relays.
All Ignition Control (IC) module wiring should kept away from the
alternator. Check all wires from the ECM to the ignition control
module for poor connections.
If problem has not been found go to ECM Connector Symptom
Tables at the end of Symptoms section.
The vessel may be driven with a J 39200 Digital Multimeter
connected to a suspected circuit. An abnormal voltage when
malfunction occurs is a good indication that there is a fault in
the circuit being monitored.
A scan tool may also be used to help detect intermittent
conditions. The Snapshot feature can be triggered to capture
and store engine parameters within the scan tool when the
malfunction occurs. This stored information then can be reviewed
by the service technician to see what caused the malfunction.
To check loss of DTC memory, disconnect ECT sensor and
idle engine until the MIL comes ON. DTC SPN 110 should be
stored and kept in memory when ignition is turned OFF. If not
the ECM is faulty. When this test is completed, make sure that
you clear the DTC SPN 110 from memory using Clearing DTC
Procedure found in General Information section.

Temperature vs Resistance Testing for Intermittent Wiring Conditions
Perform the following procedures while wiggling the
harness from side to side. Continue this at conve-
nient points (about 6 inches apart) while watching
the test equipment.
Test for Short to Ground
Test for Continuity
Test for a Short to Voltage
If the fault is not identied, perform a data log or
snapshot to capture data, which may show the
source of the fault.
