decrease in throttle position has been detected while the vehicle
is traveling over 25 mph. While in Deceleration Fuel mode, the
PCM will decrease the amount of fuel delivered by entering Open Loop
and decreasing the injector pulse width.

The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is mounted in the coolant stream.
The PCM applies 5 volts to the ECT sensor circuit. The sensor
is a thermistor which changes internal resistance as temperature changes.
When the sensor is cold, and the internal resistance is high, the PCM
monitors a high signal voltage and interprets it as a cold engine.
As the sensor warms and the internal resistance decreases, the voltage
signal decreases and the PCM interprets the lower voltage as a warm
engine.

for enabling long-term fuel trim corrections, FUEL TRIM LEARN will display
ENABLED. This indicates that the long term fuel trim is responding
to the short term fuel trim. If the Fuel Trim Learn displays DISABLED,
the long term fuel trim will not respond to the changes in the short
term fuel trim.

of the generator lamp control circuit.
Generator PWM: Scan Tool range 0% to 100%. This represents the field terminal
input from the generator. The field PWM duty cycle indicates the generator

PCM uses the generator F terminal signal to adjust the spark and IAC
in order to compensate for variances in the engine load caused by
the generator.

of the fuel control exhaust oxygen sensor. The scan tool will indicate that
the exhaust oxygen sensors are ready when the PCM detects a fluctuating
HO2S voltage sufficient to allow closed loop operation. This will
not occur unless the exhaust oxygen sensors are warmed up.
HO2S Sensor 1: Scan Tool range 0 to 1132 mV. This represents the fuel control
exhaust oxygen sensor output voltage. During Closed Loop, the voltage should
fluctuate constantly within a range between 10 mV, indicating
a lean exhaust, and 1000 mV, indicating a rich exhaust.
HO2S Sensor 2: Scan Tool range 0 to 1132 mV. This represents the catalyst
monitor exhaust oxygen sensor output voltage. If the catalyst is operating
efficiently, the HO2S 1 signal will be much more active than
the signal that is produced by the HO2S 2 sensor. If the PCM
detects a level of HO2S 2 activity that indicates the catalyst
is no longer operating efficiently, DTC P0420 will be set.
HO2S XCounts: Scan Tool range 0 to 255. This indicates the number of times the
HO2S 1 signal has crossed the 450-mV bias voltage during a 1-second
interval. A HO2S 1 signal that almost never crosses the bias
voltage could indicate a fuel trim problem, a faulty HO2S 1
circuit, or a faulty HO2S 1.
IAC Position: Scan Tool range 0 to 255. This displays the commanded position
of the idle air control pintle in counts. A larger number of counts means
that more air is being commanded through the idle air passage. The
IAC Position should respond fairly quickly to changes in the engine
load, in order to maintain the desired idle RPM.
IAT: Scan Tool range -40°C to 151°C, -40°F to 304°F.
The PCM converts the resistance of the intake air temperature sensor into
degrees. The PCM uses Intake Air Temperature (IAT) in order to adjust
the fuel delivery and the spark timing according to the incoming air
density. The IAT is also compared to the ECT at startup, in order to
identify cold starts for the HO2S heater and for the EVAP diagnostics.
Ignition 1: Scan Tool range 0 to 25.5 Volts. This represents the system voltage
measured by the PCM at its ignition feed.
Ignition Mode: Scan Tool displays BYPASS or IC. This indicates the commanded state
of the Bypass signal output from the PCM. When BYPASS is displayed, the ignition
control module is controlling the spark advance at a fixed 10°
BTDC, or Bypass mode. The IC displayed indicates that the PCM has requested
control of the spark advance, or IC mode. The ignition control module
determines the correct operating mode based on the level of voltage
that the PCM applies to the ignition control module bypass circuit.
The PCM provides 5 volts to the ignition control module bypass
circuit when conditions are appropriate for PCM control of spark timing,
or IC mode. If the PCM does not apply 5 volts to the bypass circuit,
or if the ignition control module does not receive the voltage, the
module will control spark timing.
Injector Pulse Width: Scan Tool range 0 to 1000 msec. This indicates the amount
of time the PCM is commanding each injector ON during each engine cycle. A
longer injector pulse width will cause more fuel to be delivered.
The Injector Pulse Width should increase with an increased engine
load.
Knock Retard: Scan Tool range 0.0 degrees to 25.5 degrees. This indicates the
amount of spark the PCM is removing from IC spark advance in response to the
signal from the knock sensors. The Traction Control system Desired
Torque signal from the EBTCM may cause the Knock Retard to display
a value greater than 0.0 degrees if the Traction Control is active.
Long Term FT: Scan Tool range -23% to 16%. The Long Term Fuel Trim is derived
from the Short Term Fuel Trim value. It represents a long-term correction
of the fuel delivery. A value of 0% indicates that the fuel delivery
requires no compensation in order to maintain the PCM-commanded air-to-fuel
ratio. A negative value significantly below 0% indicates that the
fuel system is rich, and that the fuel delivery is being reduced. This
condition is indicated by a decreased injector pulse width. A positive value
significantly greater than 0% indicates that a lean condition exists,
and that the PCM is compensating by adding fuel. This condition is
indicated by an increased injector pulse width. Because the Long Term Fuel
Trim tends to follow the Short Term Fuel Trim, a value in the negative
range due to canister purge at idle should not be considered unusual.
The PCM's maximum authority to control the long term fuel trim allows
a range between -23% and +16%. Fuel trim values at or near the maximum
authority may indicate an excessively rich system, or an excessively
lean system.
Loop Status: Scan Tool displays OPEN or CLOSED. Closed Loop indicates that
the PCM is controlling the fuel delivery according to the oxygen sensor voltage.
In Open Loop, the PCM ignores the oxygen sensor voltage, and bases
the amount of fuel to be delivered on the TP sensor inputs, the engine
coolant inputs , or the MAF sensor inputs.
Low Oil Lamp: Scan Tool displays ON or OFF. This represents the commanded state
of the Low Oil Lamp indicator control circuit.
MAF: Scan Tool range 0.0-512 g/s. MAF (Mass Air Flow) is the MAF
Input Frequency converted to grams of air per second. This indicates the amount
of air that is entering the engine.
MAF Frequency: Scan Tool range 0 to 32000 Hz. The MAF sensor input signal
to the PCM is a frequency which varies from approximately 3000 Hz
at idle to more than 7000 Hz at wide-open throttle. The PCM
converts this frequency signal to grams per second, which is displayed
on the scan tool as MAF.
MAP: Scan Tool range 10-105 kPa/0.00 to 4.97 volts.
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor measures the change in the intake
manifold pressure from the engine load, the EGR flow, and the speed
changes. As the intake manifold pressure increases, the intake vacuum
decreases, resulting in a higher MAP sensor voltage and a higher kPa
reading. The MAP sensor signal is used in order to monitor the intake
manifold pressure changes during the EGR flow test. It is also used in
order to update the BARO reading, and as an enabling factor for many
of the diagnostics.
MIL: Scan Tool displays ON or OFF. This indicates the PCM commanded
state of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp.
Misfire Current Cyl #1 / Misfire Current Cyl #2 / Misfire Current Cyl

the number of cylinder firing events that are detected as possible misfires
on each cylinder during the last 200 crankshaft revolutions. The number
that the counters display is twice the actual number of misfire events
that are detected. The counters may normally display some activity,
but the activity should be very low and should be nearly equal for
all of the cylinders.
Misfire History Cyl #1 / Misfire History Cyl #2 / Misfire History Cyl
#3 / Misfire History Cyl #4 / Misfire History Cyl #5 / Misfire History Cyl
#6: Scan Tool range 0 to 65,535 Counts. The Misfire History counters
indicate the total level of misfire that has been detected on each cylinder.
The number that the counters display are twice the actual number of
misfire events detected. The Misfire History counters will not update
or show any activity until a misfire DTC P0300 has become active.
The Misfire History counters will be updated every time a 200 crankshaft
revolution misfire test failure is detected.
Misfiring Cylinder (Primary) / Misfiring Cylinder (Secondary): Scan Tool displays 0 or Cylinder #. If a misfire is being detected,
Misfiring Cylinder displays the misfiring cylinder numbers.
Power Enrichment: Scan Tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. ACTIVE displayed indicates
that the PCM has detected conditions that are appropriate to operate in Power
Enrichment mode. The PCM will command Power Enrichment mode when a
large increase in throttle position and load is detected. While in
Power Enrichment, the PCM will increase the amount of fuel delivered
by entering Open Loop and by increasing the injector pulse width. This
is done i order to prevent a possible sag or a hesitation from occurring
during acceleration.
Rich/Lean Status: Scan Tool displays RICH or LEAN. Indicates whether oxygen sensor
voltage is greater than a 600-mV threshold voltage, a rich condition,
or less than a 300-mV threshold voltage, a lean condition. The voltage
should change constantly while the engine operates in closed loop,
indicating that the PCM is properly controlling the air-to-fuel mixture.
Short Term FT: Scan Tool range -11% to 20%. Short Term Fuel Trim represents a
short-term correction to the fuel delivery by the PCM in response to the amount
of time the fuel control oxygen sensor voltage spends above or below
the 450-mV threshold. If the oxygen sensor voltage has mainly
remained less than 450 mV, indicating a lean air-to-fuel mixture,
the short term fuel trim will increase into the positive range above
0%, and the PCM will add fuel. If the oxygen sensor voltage stays
mainly above the threshold, the short-term fuel trim will decrease below
0% into the negative range, while the PCM reduces the fuel delivery
in order to compensate for the indicated rich condition. Under certain
conditions, such as extended idle and high ambient temperatures, a
canister purge may cause the short-term fuel trim to read in the negative
range during normal operation. The PCM's maximum authority to control
the fuel trim allows a range between -11% and +20%. The fuel trim
values at maximum authority may indicate an excessively rich system
or an excessively lean system.
Spark: Scan Tool range -64 degrees to 64 degrees. This displays the spark
timing being commanded by the PCM on the IC circuit. A negative (-) value
indicates the degrees Before Top Dead Center (BTDC), or indicates a spark
advance. A positive value indicates the degrees After Top Dead Center
(ATDC), or indicates a spark retard. Because the ignition control
module sets the spark advance at a fixed value of 10° BTDC while
operating in Bypass mode, the displayed spark advance only reflects the
true spark timing when the PCM has commanded the IC mode.
Start-Up ECT: Scan Tool range -40°C to 151°C, -40°F to 304°F.
This indicates the Engine Coolant Temperature at the time that the vehicle
was started. The HO2S uses this diagnostic in order to determine if
the last start-up was a cold start.
Start-Up IAT: Scan Tool range -40°C to 151°C, -40°F to 304°F.

200-crankshaft revolution sample periods during which the level of misfire
was sufficiently low to report a pass.

from the TP Sensor voltage. The TP Angle should display 0% at idle, and 100%
at wide-open throttle.
TP Sensor: Scan Tool range 0.00 to 5.00 Volts. This indicates the voltage
that is being monitored by the PCM on the TP sensor signal circuit.
Traction Control: Scan Tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. ACTIVE indicates that the
traction control system is taking action in order to reduce the drive wheel
slippage.
Traction Control Desired Torque: Scan Tool range 0% to 100%. This represents the PWM signal from
the Electronic Brake and Traction Control Module (EBTCM) . When a drive wheel
slippage situation is detected, the EBTCM reduces the Traction
Control Desired Torque signal pulse width . The PCM monitors the Traction
Control Desired Torque signal, and reduces drive wheel slippage when
necessary by retarding the spark timing, by decreasing the boost sol.
PWM, or by increasing the air-to-fuel ratio. The PCM can also turn
OFF up to 3 fuel injectors if the Traction Control Desired Torque
signal indicates enough drive wheel slippage. A problem with the Traction
Control Desired Torque signal should cause DTC P1571 to set.
Traction Control Torque: Scan Tool range 0% to 100%. This represents the PWM signal, which
indicates the percent of available torque that the engine is delivering to
the drive wheels. The EBTCM monitors the Traction Control Torque signal
in order to ensure that the PCM is responding properly to the Traction
Control Desired Torque signal.
Transmission Range: Scan Tool displays INVALID, PARK/NEUTRAL, REVERSE, DRIVE 4, DRIVE
3, DRIVE 2, or LOW. The Transmission Range represents the decoded status of
the 4 inputs from the Transaxle Range Switch Assembly. The combination
of the transaxle range inputs indicates the position of the transaxle manual
valve.

display represents the states of the 4 inputs from the transaxle range switch.
HIGH indicates a B+ voltage signal being monitored at the PCM. LOW
indicates a grounded input signal. The combination of transaxle range
inputs indicates the position of the transaxle manual valve.
TWC Protection: Scan Tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. ACTIVE indicates that the
PCM has detected that the conditions are appropriate in order to operate in
the TWC Protection mode. This is determined based on the engine load
and the engine coolant temperature. While in TWC Protection, the PCM
will decrease the air-to-fuel ratio to a value that depends
on the Mass Air Flow . A higher mass airflow indicates a lower air-to-fuel
ratio.
Vehicle Speed: Scan Tool range 0-255 km/h, 0-155 mph. The vehicle
speed sensor signal is converted into mph and km/h for display.
