Circuit/System Description
The engine control module (ECM) has 2 internal 5V reference busses called 5V reference 1 and 5V reference 2. Each reference bus provides 5V reference circuits for more than one sensor. Therefore, a fault condition on one 5V reference circuit will affect the other 5V reference circuits connected to that reference bus. The ECM monitors the voltage on the 5V reference busses.
The 5V reference 1 bus provides 5V to the following sensors:
| • | The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor |
| • | The fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor |
| • | The air conditioning (A/C) refrigerant pressure sensor |
| • | The accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor 2 |
| • | The engine oil pressure (EOP) sensor |
| • | The camshaft position (CMP) sensor |
The 5V reference 2 bus provides 5V to the following sensors:
| • | The APP sensor 1 |
| • | The throttle position (TP) sensor 1 and 2 |
| • | The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor |
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The ignition is in Unlock, Accessory, Run, or Crank. |
| • | The ignition voltage is more than 5.235V. |
| • | DTCs P0641 and P0651 run continuously when the above conditions are met. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects a voltage out of tolerance condition on the 5V reference 1 or 2 bus for more than 0.5 second.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTCs P0641 and P0651 are Type A DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
DTCs P0641 and P0651 are Type A DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, observe the scan tool 5V reference 1 and 2 parameters. The reading should display Circuit OK for a normally operating system.
Circuit/System Testing
Note: Additional DTCs may set when disconnecting components.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector of all the sensors connected to the 5V reference bus for the applicable DTC. Refer to Circuit/System Description.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2V between one of the 5V reference circuits and ground.
- Connect each component associated with the appropriate 5V reference bus, one at a time, while monitoring the voltage. The voltage should not change more than 1V.
Note: A short to voltage on the signal circuit of certain components may cause this DTC to set.
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test all of the 5V reference circuits for a short to ground. If all circuits test normal, replace the ECM. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test for a short to voltage on all of the 5V reference circuits, or the signal circuit for each component associated with the appropriate 5V reference bus for a short to voltage. If all circuits test normal, replace the ECM. |
| ⇒ | If the voltage display changes more than the specified range when a component is connected, replace the component. |
