Engine Cranks But Does Not Run European Emissions
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
-
The On-Board Diagnostic (EOBD) System Check prompts the technician to complete some basic checks and store the Freeze Frame and Failure Records data on the scan tool, if applicable. This creates an electronic copy of the data taken when the malfunction occurred. The information is then stored on the scan tool for later reference.
-
By performing a compression test, it can be determined if the engine has the mechanical ability to run.
-
It is important to test for the presence of spark from all of the ignition wires. If spark is present from 1-3 of the ignition coil terminals, the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor is OK.
-
In testing the engine control module (ECM) outputs for the electronic spark timing signal, it is recommended to use an oscilloscope to view the varying voltage signals. In measuring these outputs with a voltmeter, intermittent errors may occur that cannot be seen by a voltmeter.
-
This step tests for proper operation of the ECM's control of the fuel pump circuit.
-
This step tests for a ground signal being supplied by the ECM to operate the fuel injectors. If there is no ground present during the cranking of the engine, and the fuel injector wiring is OK, the ECM is at fault.
