Post Inj. Cyl. 1-4 Command: This parameter displays the amount of fuel injector ON time or pulse width as commanded by the control module for catalyst heating.

Power Enrichment: Scan tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. ACTIVE displayed indicates that the ECM has detected conditions appropriate to operate in Power Enrichment mode. The ECM will command Power Enrichment mode when a large increase in throttle position and load is detected. While in Power Enrichment, the ECM will increase the amount of fuel delivered by entering Open Loop and increasing the injector pulse width. This is done to prevent a possible sag or hesitation from occurring during acceleration.

Reduced Engine Power: The scan tool displays Active or Inactive. The scan tool displays Active when the ECM receives a signal from the TAC module that a throttle actuator control system fault is occurring. The ECM limits the engine power.

Short Term FT: The scan tool displays percentage. The short term fuel trim represents a short term correction to fuel delivery by the ECM in response to the amount of time the fuel control oxygen sensor voltage spends above or below the 450 mV threshold. If the oxygen sensor voltage mainly remains less than 450 mV, indicating a lean air/fuel mixture, short term fuel trim increases into the positive range above 0 percent. The ECM adds fuel. If the oxygen sensor voltage stays mainly above the threshold, the short term fuel trim decreases below 0 percent into the negative range. The ECM reduces the fuel delivery in order to compensate for the indicated rich condition. Under certain conditions such as an extended idle and a high ambient temperature, the canister purge may cause the short term fuel trim to read in the negative range during normal operation. The fuel trim values at maximum authority may indicate an excessively rich or lean system.

Spark: The scan tool displays a range of -64 to +64°. The scan tool displays the amount of degrees the ECM commands. The ECM computes the desired spark advance using the following: (1) ECT, (2) engine speed (RPM), (3) load, (4) vehicle speed. The ECM adjusts the timing. A negative (-) value indicates degrees before top dead center (BTDC) or spark advance; a positive value indicates degrees after top dead center (ATDC) or spark retard.

Start Up ECT: Indicates the engine coolant temperature at engine start up. The scan tool displays a range of -40 to +150°C (-40 to +302°F). The scan tool displays the engine ECT at the time the engine was started. The ECM uses start-up ECT for certain DTCs.

Start Up IAT: Indicates the IAT at the time that the vehicle was started. The scan tool range is -40 to +150°C (-40 to +302°F). This parameter indicates the ambient air temperature at start-up.

System Power Mode: This parameter displays the position of the ignition switch.

TAC Forced Engine Shutdown: This parameter indicates the status of throttle actuator control (TAC) by the control module. The scan tool will display YES if the engine has been shut down due to a throttle control fault. The scan tool will display NO if the engine has not been shut down due to a throttle control fault.

TAC Motor: This parameter indicates the status of the throttle actuator control (TAC) motor driver by the control module. The scan tool will display Enabled if TAC motor operation is allowed. The scan tool will display Disabled if the TAC motor is disabled.

TC Bypass Solenoid Circuit Status: This parameter displays the diagnostic state of the output driver for the turbocharger bypass solenoid. The scan tool will display OK if the circuit is operating correctly. The scan tool will display Fault if there is an open, short to ground, or a short to voltage on the circuit.

TC Bypass Solenoid Command: This parameter shows the state of the turbocharger bypass solenoid. The scan tool shows either commanded on or off.

TC Wastegate Solenoid Circuit Status: This parameter displays the diagnostic state of the output driver for the turbocharger wastegate solenoid. The scan tool will display OK if the circuit is operating correctly. The scan tool will display Fault if there is an open, short to ground, or a short to voltage on the circuit.

TCC/Cruise Brake Pedal Switch: This parameter displays the position of the torque converter clutch (TCC) brake pedal switch input to the control module. The scan tool displays Applied, Released, or Invalid.

TCS Torque Delivered Signal: Represents the pulse width modulation (PWM) signal which indicates the percent of available torque the engine is delivering to the drive wheels. The EBTCM monitors the traction control torque signal to ensure that the ECM is responding properly to the traction control desired torque signal.

TCS Torque Request Signal: Represents the PWM signal from the EBTCM. The EBTCM reduces the traction control desired torque signal pulse width when a drive wheel slippage situation is detected. The ECM monitors the traction control desired torque signal and reduces drive wheel slippage as necessary by retarding spark timing.

Total Fuel Trim Average: This parameter displays the overall fuel trim from the idle/decel cell and the cruise/accel cell.

Total Knock Retard: This parameter indicates how much ignition spark timing is being retarded due to all control systems monitored by the control module. The scan tool will display a high value during extreme conditions such as high temperatures and antilock braking. The scan tool will display a lower value during lighter driving conditions.

Total Misfire: The scan tool range is 0-255 counts. This parameter indicates the total level of misfire that has been detected on each cylinder. The misfire history counters will not update or show any activity until a misfire or DTC P0300 has become active. The misfire history counter will update every 200 cylinder firing events.

TP Desired Angle: The scan tool displays 0-100 percent. The ECM indicates the desired throttle angle commanded by the vehicle operator. The scan tool indicates the desired throttle angle commanded by the vehicle operator.

TP Indicated Angle: This parameter displays the angle of the TP in percent. This information is calculated by the control module using the signals from the throttle position sensors. The scan tool will display a low percentage when the throttle plate is closed. The scan tool will display a high percentage when the throttle plate is fully open.

TP Sensor 1: This parameter displays the voltage signal sent to the control module from the sensor used to monitor the position of the throttle plates. This parameter is for sensor 1 of the TP sensor assembly. The scan tool will display a low voltage when the throttle plates are at rest. The scan tool will display a high voltage when the throttle plates are fully open.

The scan tool will display Agree when the signal from TP sensor 1 corresponds with the signal from TP sensor 2. The scan tool will display Disagree when the signal from TP sensor 1 conflicts with the signal from TP sensor 2.
