DTC Troubleshooting: P0651

DTC P0651 : Sensor Reference Voltage B Malfunction

NOTE: Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information How to Troubleshoot the Fuel And Emissions Systems.

1. Problem verification:

-1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

-2. Clear the DTC with the HDS. How to Troubleshoot the Fuel And Emissions Systems

-3. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0651 indicated?
-YES- The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
-NO- Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the PCM and these parts:
* APP sensor
* A/C pressure sensor
* FTP sensor
* Input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor

2. Determine possible failure area (VCC lines, others):

-1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

-2. Disconnect the connectors from these parts:
* APP sensor
* A/C pressure sensor
* FTP sensor
* Input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor

-3. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

-4. Clear the DTC with the HDS. How to Troubleshoot the Fuel And Emissions Systems

-5. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0651 indicated?
-YES- Go to step 4.
-NO- Go to step 3.

3. Shorted part check:

-1. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS while reconnecting these parts, one at a time:
* APP sensor
* A/C pressure sensor
* FTP sensor
* Input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor

Is DTC P0651 indicated?
-YES- Replace the part that caused the DTC when it was reconnected, then do the repair verification.
-NO- Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the PCM and the following parts, then go to step 1.
* APP sensor
* A/C pressure sensor
* FTP sensor
* Input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor

4. Shorted wire check (VCC lines):

-1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

-2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

-3. Disconnect the following connector.





-4. Check for continuity between these test points and body ground individually.


















Is there continuity?
-YES- Repair a short in the VCC wire between the PCM (A30, A35, B29) and each part that was disconnected in step 2, then do the repair verification.
-NO- Update the PCM PCM Update if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM Service and Repair, then do the repair verification.

Repair verification:

-1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

-2. Reconnect all connectors.

-3. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

-4. Reset the PCM with the HDS How to Troubleshoot the Fuel And Emissions Systems.

-5. Do the PCM idle learn procedure PCM Idle Learn Procedure.

-6. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0651 indicated?
-YES- Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the PCM and the following parts, then go to step 1.
* APP sensor
* A/C pressure sensor
* FTP sensor
* Input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor
-NO- Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
