SPN 558/FMI 3
This diagnostic condition is typically an open circuit.
Check as follows:
- Disconnect the Idle Validation Switch.
- Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).
- Measure the voltage between the Idle Validation Switch pins 4 and 6.
- If the voltage is greater than 11.5 volts, go to step 7 .
- If the voltage is less than 11.5 volts, go to the next step.
- Measure the voltage between the Idle Validation Switch pin 4 and ground.
- If the voltage is greater than 11.5 volts, go to the next step.
- If the voltage is less than 11.5 volts, repair the open wire between pin 6 of the CPC #1 connector and pin 4 of the Idle Validation Switch. Refer to “43.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
- Disconnect the CPC #2 connector.
- Measure the resistance between pin 2 of the CPC #2 connector and pin 6 of the Idle Validation Switch.
- If the resistance is greater than 5Ω, repair the open the wire between pin 2 of the CPC #2 connector and pin 6 of the Idle Validation Switch. Refer to “43.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
- If the resistance is less than 5Ω, replace the Idle Validation Switch. Refer to “43.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
- Measure the voltage between the Idle Validation Switch pins 5 and 6.
- If the voltage is greater than 11.5 volts, replace the Idle Validation Switch. Refer to “43.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
- If the voltage is less than 11.5 volts, repair the open the wire between pin 3 of the CPC #1 connector and pin 5 of the Idle Validation Switch. Refer to “43.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
Verify Repairs
Verify repairs as follows:
- Turn ignition OFF.
- Reconnect any electrical connections that were disconnected to perform the diagnosis.
- Clear codes with DDDL 7.0 or latest version.
ENGINE EXHAUST To avoid injury from inhaling engine exhaust, always operate the engine in a well-ventilated area. Engine exhaust is toxic. - Start and bring engine up to operating temperature (over 140°F/60°C).
- Verify operation is satisfactory and no warning lamps illuminate. If warning lamps illuminate, troubleshoot the codes.
