If a control module is installed without being programmed, DTC P0602 will be set. During reprogramming and immediately after completion, DTC P0602 will also be set. This DTC should be successfully cleared after following the reprogramming procedures.
Since this diagnostic pertains to an internal VCM diagnostic check, no wiring schematic is required.
The ignition switch is in the crank or run position.
There is no software data present in the VCM.
• | The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) if a failure is detected during 2 consecutive key cycles. |
• | The control module sets the DTC and records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic failed. The failure information is stored in the scan tool Freeze Frame/Failure Records. |
• | The control module turns OFF the MIL after 3 consecutive drive trips when the test has run and passed. |
• | A history DTC will clear if no fault conditions have been detected for 40 warm-up cycles. A warm-up cycle occurs when the coolant temperature has risen 22°C (40°F) from the startup coolant temperature and the engine coolant reaches a temperature that is more than 70°C (158°F) during the same ignition cycle. |
• | Use a scan tool in order to clear the DTCs. |
