DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

NOTE: Always perform diagnostics with a fully charged battery to avoid false symptoms.

NOTE: Diagnose 1 Trip Failures as a fully matured DTC.

NOTE: Verify flash level of Powertrain Controller. Some problems are corrected by software upgrades to the Transmission and Engine Systems.

NOTE: Due to the integration of the Powertrain and Transmission control modules - if a controller flash is performed it is necessary to perform STANDARD PROCEDURE - TCM QUICK LEARN and the STANDARD PROCEDURE - DRIVE LEARN . Failure to do so may result in shift quality complaints.

NOTE: Check for applicable TSB's that may apply.

With the DRBIII(R), read the engine DTC's. Check and repair all Engine DTC's prior to performing Transmission symptom diagnostics. With the DRBIII(R), read Transmission DTC's. Record all DTC's and 1 Trip Failures. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors. Repair as necessary. For Gear Ratio DTC's, check and record all CVI's. Most DTC's set on start up but some must be set by driving the vehicle to ensure that all diagnostic monitors have run. Perform this procedure prior to Symptom diagnosis. Continue Go To 2
With the DRBIII(R), perform the Shift Lever Position Test. Select the test outcome from the following:
Test passes: Go To 3
Test fails with Error Code: Go To 4
Test fails without Error Code: Go To 23
The conditions necessary to set the DTC are not present at this time. With the DRBIII(R), check the EATX DTC EVENT DATA to help identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.
NOTE: If the Transmission Solenoid/TRS connector is disconnected while the ignition key is in the ON or OFF position, code P0706 will be set.
NOTE: In this case, the EATX DTC Event Data may show engine speed as zero, all TRS pin states as OPEN, all pressure switches as OPEN or CLOSED (all switches in the same state), and/or line pressure as zero.

P1222 - Leak Detection During Motoring

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 22:06:19 +0000

P1222 - Leak Detection During Motoring

NOTE: For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information. When engine is motoring (i.e. Engine is running, but requires no fuel injection) the only required fuel delivery to the rail is due to natural leakage in the system. The natural leakage depends directly on the rail pressure. A definite amount of fuel is required to overcome the natural leakage, for different fuel pressures. The Engine Control Module (ECM) sets Leakage Detected, when the fuel flow exceeds an expected value. When a leak is detected in the system, a counter is initiated. When the counter reaches a predetermined value a fault is set and engine derate is enabled. When the leak is not detected the counter counts down, and once the counter becomes zero the engine is set back to normal running conditions.

**A solid Wait to Start lamp will illuminate in the cluster along with chiming 10 times. When the fault goes inactive, it will clear the wait to start lamp with no chimes**.

When Monitored:

Engine is motoring and at operating temperature with no fuel system and engine speed related DTC's.

Set Condition:

Counter reaches a calibrated value.

Possible Causes

EXCESSIVE INJECTOR RETURN

NOTE: Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.

OTHER DTC's PRESENT

1. Turn the ignition on.

2. With the scan tool, select View DTC's. Are there any other fuel system related DTC's present along with this DTC?

a. Yes >>> Perform the diagnostics for the other fuel system DTC's before proceeding.

b. No >>>> Perform the INJECTOR RETURN FLOW TEST procedure.

P1223 - Leak Detection Based On Quantity Balance

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 18:02:08 +0000

P1223 - Leak Detection Based On Quantity Balance

NOTE: For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.

There is a required amount of fuel required by the fuel system to keep the system stable. The amount of fuel required depends on fuel pressure, injection quantity, engine speed,

and coolant temperature. The Engine Control Module (ECM) sets Leakage Detected, when the fuel flow exceeds an expected value. When a leak is detected in the system, a counter is initiated. When the counter reaches a predetermined value a fault is set and engine derate is enabled. When the leak is not detected the counter counts down, and once the counter becomes zero the engine is set back to normal running conditions.

**A solid Wait to Start lamp will illuminate in the cluster along with chiming 10 times. When the fault goes inactive, it will clear the wait to start lamp with no chimes**.

When Monitored:

Engine is running above low idle speed and at operating temperature with no fuel system and engine speed related DTC's.

• Set Condition: Counter reaches a calibrated value. Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.

Possible Causes

Excessive Injector Return

NOTE: Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.

OTHER DTC's PRESENT
