Verification Test VER-2A - Road Test Verification

ROAD TEST VERIFICATION

Important Note: If the Powertrain Control Module has been changed and the correct VIN and mileage have not been programmed, a DTC will be set in the ABS and Air bag modules. In addition, if the vehicle is equipped with a Smart Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM), Secret Key data must be updated to enable starting.

For ABS and Air Bag systems:

ACTION:
1. Enter correct VIN and Mileage in PCM.
2. Erase codes in ABS and Air Bag modules.

For SKIM theft alarm:

ACTION:
1. Connect the DRB to the data link connector.
2. Go to Engine, Misc. and place the SKIM in secured access mode, by using the appropriate PIN code for this vehicle.
3. Select Update the Secret Key data, data will be transferred from the SKIM to the PCM. Inspect the vehicle to ensure that all engine components are connected. Reassemble and reconnect all components as necessary.

If this verification procedure is being performed after a NO TROUBLE CODE test, do the following:
1. Check to see if the initial symptom still exists.
2. If the initial or another symptom exists, the repair is not complete. Check all pertinent Technical Service Bulletins and return to TEST NTC-1A, if necessary.

If this verification procedure is being performed after an OBDII trouble code test, perform VER-5. For all other trouble codes, continue with this verification.

For previously read trouble codes that have not been dealt with, return to DTC TEST and follow the path specified; otherwise, continue.

If the powertrain control module has not been changed:

1. Connect the DRB to the PCM data link connector and erase trouble codes.
2. With the DRB, reset all values in the adaptive memory.
3. Disconnect the DRB.

Ensure no trouble code remains by doing the following:
1. If this test is for an NC Relay Control Circuit Code, drive the vehicle for at least five minutes with the NC on. For some of the drive, go at least 40 mph; at some point stop the car and turn the engine off for 10 seconds or more; then restart and continue. Ensure the transmission shifts through all gears. Upon completion of the road test, turn the engine off, and read trouble codes with the DRB.

2. If the repair code has reset, the repair is not complete. Check all related Technical Service Bulletins and return to DTC TEST if necessary. If another trouble code has set, return to DTC TEST and follow the path specified for that trouble code. If there are no trouble codes, the repair was successful and is now complete.
