Brake pedal position sensor learn

Calibration Criteria

NOTE:

Do not apply the brake pedal during the brake pedal position sensor calibration procedure. Any movement of the brake pedal during this procedure will cause the calibration procedure to fail. If this occurs, the brake pedal position sensor calibration must be repeated.

Brake pedal position sensor calibration must be performed after the brake pedal position sensor, body control module (BCM), or engine control module (ECM) have been serviced. The calibration procedure will set the brake pedal position sensor home value. This value is used by the BCM and ECM to determine the action of the driver applying the brake system and to provide this information to the vehicle subsystems via serial data

Calibration Procedure

  1. Apply the parking brake.
  2. Ignition ON, engine OFF, place the transmission in the PARK position for automatic transmission or NEUTRAL position for manual transmission.
  3. Install a scan tool.
  4. Clear all DTCs before proceeding.
  5. Navigate to the Configuration/Reset Functions menu of the BCM.
  6. Select the Brake Pedal Position Sensor Learn procedure and follow the directions displayed on the screen.

Q38 THROTTLE BODY: Throttle/idle learn

Description

The engine control module (ECM) learns the airflow through the throttle body to ensure the correct idle. The learned airflow values are stored within the ECM. These values are learned to adjust for production variation and will continuously learn during the life of the vehicle to compensate for reduced airflow due to throttle body coking. Anytime the throttle body airflow rate changes, for example due to cleaning or replacing, the values must be relearned.

An engine that had a heavily coked throttle body that has been cleaned or replaced may take several drive cycles to unlearn the coking. To accelerate the process, the scan tool has the ability to reset all learned values back to zero. A new ECM will also have values set to zero

The idle may be unstable or a DTC may set if the learned values do not match the actual airflow.

Conditions for Running the Throttle Learn Procedure

Throttle Learn

Scan Tool Idle Learn or Idle Learn Reset Procedure - Performed after the throttle body is cleaned or replaced

  1. Ignition ON, engine OFF, perform the Idle Learn or Idle Learn Reset in Configuration/Reset or Module Setup.
  2. Engine idling, observe the scan tool Throttle Body Idle Airflow Compensation parameter. The Throttle Body Idle Airflow Compensation value should equal 0 % and the engine should be idling at a normal idle speed.
  3. Clear the DTCs and return to the diagnostic that referred you here.

Service Bay/On Road Idle Learn Procedure - Performed after the ECM is programmed or replaced

NOTE: Do NOT perform this procedure if DTCs are set. Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .

  1. Engine idling for 3 min.
  2. Observe the scan tool Desired Idle Speed and the actual Engine Speed parameters.
  3. The ECM will start to learn the new idle cells and the Desired Idle Speed should start to decrease.
  4. Ignition OFF for 60 s.
  5. Start and idle the engine for 3 min.
  6. After the 3 min run time the engine should be idling normal.

NOTE: During the drive cycle the check engine light may come on with idle speed DTCs. If idle speed codes are set, clear codes so the ECM can continue to learn.

  • If the engine idle speed has not been learned the vehicle will need to be driven at speeds above 70 km/h (44 mph) with several decelerations and extended idles.
  1. After the drive cycle, the engine should be idling normally.
  • If the engine idle speed has not been learned, turn OFF the ignition for 60 s and repeat step 6.
  1. Once the engine speed has returned to normal, clear DTCs and return to the diagnostic that referred you here.

Spark plug inspection

Spark Plug Usage

  1. Ensure that the correct spark plug is installed. An incorrect spark plug causes driveability conditions.

    Refer to the Electronic Parts Catalog.

  2.  Ensure that the spark plug has the correct heat range. An incorrect heat range causes the following conditions:
  • Spark plug fouling-Colder plug
  • Pre-ignition causing spark plug and/or engine damage-Hotter plug

Spark Plug Inspection

Fig. 88: Cross Sectional View Of Spark Plug
Fig. 88: Cross Sectional View Of Spark Plug

  1. Inspect the terminal post (1) for damage.
  • Inspect for a bent or broken terminal post (1).
  • Test for a loose terminal post (1) by twisting and pulling the post. The terminal post (1) should NOT move.

Fig. 89: Identifying Points For Inspecting Spark Plug For Flashover Or Carbon Tracking Soot
Fig. 89: Identifying Points For Inspecting Spark Plug For Flashover Or Carbon Tracking Soot

  1. Inspect the insulator (2) for flashover or carbon tracking, soot. This is caused by the electrical charge traveling across the insulator (2) between the terminal post (1) and ground. Inspect for the following conditions:
  • Inspect the spark plug boot for damage.
  • Inspect the spark plug recess area of the cylinder head for moisture, such as oil, coolant, or water. A spark plug boot that is saturated causes arcing to ground.

Fig. 90: Inspecting Spark Plug Insulator
Fig. 90: Inspecting Spark Plug Insulator

  1. Inspect the insulator (2) for cracks. All or part of the electrical charge may arc through the crack instead of the electrodes (3, 4).

Fig. 91: Cutaway/Description View Of Spark Plug
Fig. 91: Cutaway/Description View Of Spark Plug

  1. Inspect for evidence of improper arcing.
  • Measure the gap between the center electrode (4) and the side electrode (3) terminals. An excessively wide electrode gap can prevent correct spark plug operation.
  • Inspect for the correct spark plug torque. Insufficient torque can prevent correct spark plug operation. An over torqued spark plug, causes the insulator (2) to crack.
  • Inspect for signs of tracking that occurred near the insulator tip instead of the center electrode (4).
  • Inspect for a broken or worn side electrode (3).
  • Inspect for a broken, worn, or loose center electrode (4) by shaking the spark plug.
  1. A rattling sound indicates internal damage.
  2. A loose center electrode (4) reduces the spark intensity.
  • Inspect for bridged electrodes (3, 4). Deposits on the electrodes (3, 4) reduce or eliminates the gap.
  • Inspect for worn or missing platinum pads on the electrodes (3, 4) If equipped.
  • Inspect for excessive fouling.
  • Inspect the spark plug recess area of the cylinder head for debris. Dirty or damaged threads can cause the spark plug not to seat correctly during installation.

Spark Plug Visual Inspection

  1. Normal operation-Brown to grayish-tan with small amounts of white powdery deposits are normal combustion by-products from fuels with additives.
  2. Carbon Fouled-Dry, fluffy black carbon, or soot caused by the following conditions:
  • Rich fuel mixtures
  • Leaking fuel injectors
  • Excessive fuel pressure
  • Restricted air filter element
  • Incorrect combustion
  • Reduced ignition system voltage output
  • Weak coils
  • Worn ignition wires
  • Incorrect spark plug gap
  • Excessive idling or slow speeds under light loads can keep spark plug temperatures so low that normal combustion deposits may not burn off.
  • Deposit Fouling-Oil, coolant, or additives that include substances such as silicone, very white coating, reduces the spark intensity. Most powdery deposits will not effect spark intensity unless they form into a glazing over the electrode.
