P0602
Circuit Description
The PCM used in this vehicle utilizes an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM). The EEPROM contains program information and the calibrations required for powertrain diagnostics operation.
Unlike the PROM used in past applications, the EEPROM is not replaceable. When the PCM is replaced or a calibration update is required, the PCM must be programmed using approved Techline equipment.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The engine is cranking
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The PCM does not contain the correct program required to operate the vehicle.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ The PCM will illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test has been run and tailed.
^ The PCM will store conditions which were present when the DTC set as Freeze Frame and Fail Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
^ The PCM will turn the MIL OFF during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic has been run and passed.
^ The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
^ The DTC can be cleared by using the scan tool.
Test Description
Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the Diagnostic Table.
3. This vehicle is equipped with a PCM which utilizes an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM). When the PCM is being replaced, the new PCM must be programmed.
