P0651



DTC P0651

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The powertrain control module (PCM) provides a 5-volt reference to the following sensors:
- The throttle position (TP) sensor 2
- The accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 1
- The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor

The PCM monitors voltage on the 5-volt reference circuit. If the voltage is higher or lower than required, DTC P0651 will set.

DTC DESCRIPTOR
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC P0651 5-Volt Reference 2 Circuit

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
- DTCs P0601, P0602, P0603, P0604, P0606, P0607, P0621, P0622, P1621, P1680, P1681, P2610 are not set.
- The ignition is in the Unlock/Accessory, Run, or Crank position.
- DTC P0651 runs continuously once the above conditions are met.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
- The PCM detects a voltage that is higher or lower than required on the 5-volt reference circuit.
- The above condition is present for longer than 1 second.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module stores this information in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
