1173
UnclassifiedGeneral
What This Code Means
MIL ON; Engine power derate; Adaptive disabled; Engine shuts down
Possible Causes
- •ECM lost CAN communication with the EPR
- •Faulty harness
- •Improper CAN termination
- •Improper wiring
- •Intermittent problem
- •Power loss at the EPR
Suggested Actions
- 1Perform the On-Board (OBD) System Check
- 2Using a multimeter, check resistance between ECM pin 14 and ECM pin 15 on the harness to verify if it is between 115 and 135 ohms
- 3With Key OFF and Engine Stopped (System Mode = 'Stopped'), disconnect ECM header connection, remove yellow lock from ECM harness side header, and check continuity between diagnostic connector pin 7 and ECM pin 14 and between connector pin 8 and ECM pin 15 on the harness
- 4With Key OFF and Engine Stopped (System Mode = 'Stopped'), disconnect EPR/CFV harness connection, remove locks on the harness side of the EPR/CFV connection, check harness continuity of CAN + wire between EPR Pin 2/CFV Pin 2 and ECM pin 14 (CAN1) or Pin 17 (CAN2), and check harness continuity of CAN - wire between EPR Pin 5/CFV Pin 3 and ECM pin 15 (CAN1) or Pin 16 (CAN2)
- 5With Key ON and Engine Running (System Mode = 'Running'), attempt to connect to ECM with CAN-based DST and clear fault with DST
