  • Damaged ECM
  • Air fuel ratio (A/F) Sensor 1 Bank 1 harness is open or shorted
  • Exhaust gas leaks
  • Faulty Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor

At this point we are assuming that the fuses and relays are good. You will need to locate the PCM/TCM and the power input signal circuit using your vehicle information source.

Unplug the connector from the PCM/TCM, place the ignition switch in the ON position, and probe the appropriate circuit with the positive test lead of the DVOM.
