Hummer H2. Manual — part 1679

flash memory or an internal TAC module processor fault is detected, this DTC sets.

Conditions for Running the DTC

z

DTC U0107 is not set.

z

The ignition switch is in the Crank or Run position.

z

The ignition voltage is greater than 6 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

z

The TAC module determines that an internal data test did not pass.

z

The above condition is met for more than 1 second.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

z

The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.

z

The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module
stores this information in the Freeze Frame and/or the Failure Records.

z

The control module commands the TAC system to operate in the Reduced Engine Power mode.

z

A message center or an indicator displays Reduced Engine Power.

z

Under certain conditions the control module commands the engine OFF.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

z

The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles
that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.

z

A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.

z

A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other
emission related diagnostic.

z

Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

z

Verify that the starting and charging systems are operating properly. Low system voltage can cause this
DTC to set.

z

Inspect the TAC module connectors for signs of water intrusion. If water intrusion occurs, multiple DTCs
may set without any circuit or component conditions found during diagnostic testing.

z

When the TAC module detects a condition within the TAC system, more than one TAC system related
DTC may set. This is due to the many redundant tests run continuously on this system. Locating and
repairing an individual condition may correct more than one DTC. Disconnecting components during
testing may set additional DTCs. Remember this if you review the stored information in Capture Info.

Circuit Description

The accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 1 is a potentiometer type sensor with the following three circuits:

z

A 5-volt reference circuit

z

A low reference circuit

z

A signal circuit

The control module provides the APP sensor a 5-volt reference circuit and a low reference circuit. The APP
sensor then provides the control module a signal voltage proportional to pedal movement. The APP sensor 1
signal voltage is low at rest and increases as the pedal is depressed. When the control module detects that the
APP sensor 1 signal or APP sensor 5-volt reference voltage is outside the predetermined range, this DTC sets.

Conditions for Running the DTC

z

DTCs P0601, P0602, P0606, P2108, U0107 are not set.

z

The ignition switch is in the Crank or Run position.

z

The ignition voltage is more than 5.23 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

z

The APP sensor 1 voltage is less than 0.24 volts or more than 4.49 volts.

OR

z

The 5-volt reference is less than 4.54 volts or more than 5.21 volts.

z

One of the above conditions is present for more than 1 second.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

z

The control module stores the DTC information into memory when the diagnostic runs and fails.

z

The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will not illuminate.

z

The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module
stores this information in the Failure Records.

z

If one or more APP sensor DTCs are set, the following occurs:

{

The control module commands Reduced Engine Power mode.

{

The APP indicated angle is limited to a predetermined value to limit the amount of throttle control.

OR

{

The APP indicated angle is limited to 0 percent. The control module only allows the engine to idle.

{

The message center displays Reduced Engine Power.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

z

A current DTC Last Test Failed clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.

z

A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other
non-emission related diagnostic.

z

Clear the DTC with a scan tool.
