Wait to Start Indicator Circuit Diagnosis (K07UFP)




Wait to Start Indicator Circuit Diagnosis (LC8\K07\UFP)

Diagnostic Instructions

* Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.

* Review Strategy Based Diagnosis Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.

* Diagnostic Procedure Instructions Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

Circuit/System Description

The liquid propane control module supplies voltage to the Wait to Start lamp during the purge cycle. The purge cycle is enabled during the first 5-8 seconds of initial ignition ON. The liquid propane control module will not enable purge mode until the vehicle has been powered down for at least 2 minutes.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition OFF.

2. Verify the Wait to Start indicator is not activated

If the Wait to Start indicator is activated
Refer to Circuit/System Testing

If the Wait to Start indicator is not activated

3. Ignition ON.

4. Verify the Wait to Start indicator activates for the initial 5-8 seconds of ignition ON and turns OFF.

If the Wait to Start indicator does not activate or remains ON
Refer to Circuit/System Testing

If the Wait to Start indicator activates for 5-8 seconds and turns OFF

5. All OK

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the wait to start indicator.

2. Test for less than 10 ohms between the wait to start indicator ground circuit and ground.

If 10 ohms or greater

1. Ignition OFF

2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the ground circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.

If less than 10 ohms

3. Connect a test lamp between the wait to start indicator control circuit and ground. Ignition ON.

4. Verify a test lamp illuminates for 5-8 seconds on initial ignition ON.

If the test lamp does not illuminate for 5-8 seconds

1. Ignition OFF.

2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the control circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms, test or replace the LPG control module.

If the test lamp remains ON

1. Ignition OFF

2. Disconnect the harness connector at the LPG control module, Ignition ON

3. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.

If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

If less than 1 V, test or replace the LPG control module.

If the test lamp illuminates for 5-8 seconds and turns OFF

5. Test or replace the wait to start indicator.
