This module controls all the relays/solenoids listed below the Driver Module parameter in the scan tool Output Driver Data List up to the next driver module.

ECT: Scan tool displays -40°C-+151°C (-40°F-+304°F). The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is mounted in the coolant stream. The PCM applies 5 volts to the ECT sensor circuit. The sensor is a thermistor which changes the internal resistance as the temperature changes. When the sensor is cold and the internal resistance is high, the PCM monitors a high signal voltage and interprets it as a cold engine. As the sensor warms and the internal resistance decreases, the voltage signal decreases and the PCM interprets the lower voltage as a warm engine.

EGR Closed Valve Pintle Position: Scan tool displays 0.0-5.0 volts. Represents the learned voltage that the PCM uses to determine whether or not the EGR valve is fully closed and is at 0 percent pintle position. If the Desired EGR Position is 0 percent and a difference of more than 0.4 volt between EGR Feedback and EGR Closed Valve Pintle Position is detected, DTC P1406 will set.

EGR Duty Cycle: Scan tool displays 0-100 percent. Represents the EGR valve driver PWM signal from the PCM. A duty cycle of 0 percent indicates that no EGR flow is being commanded. A 100 percent duty cycle indicates that maximum EGR flow is commanded.

EGR Flow Test Count: Scan tool displays 0-255. Indicates the number of EGR flow test samples collected during the current ignition cycle. The maximum number of samples allowed is 1 during normal operation. If the PCM battery feed has been disconnected or a DTC P0401 has been cleared, several EGR flow test samples will be allowed during the next ignition cycle. This is to allow repair verification during a single ignition cycle.

Fuel Trim Learn: Scan tool displays YES or NO. When conditions are appropriate for enabling long term fuel trim corrections, FUEL TRIM LEARN will display YES. This indicates that the long term fuel trim is responding to short term fuel trim. If the Fuel Trim Learn displays NO, long term fuel trim will not respond to changes in short term fuel trim.

Generator PWM: Scan tool displays 0-100 percent.

Hot Mode: Scan tool displays ON or OFF. ON indicates that the PCM has detected a condition appropriate for Transaxle Hot mode operation. The PCM determines this condition based on the transaxle fluid temperature. While in Hot mode, transaxle shift points may be altered, fourth gear is disabled, and the torque converter clutch (TCC) is forced ON in second gear.

Hot Open Loop: Scan tool displays Active or Inactive.

HO2S Sensor 1: Scan tool displays READY or NOT READY. Indicates the status of the exhaust oxygen sensor. The scan tool will indicate that the exhaust oxygen sensor is ready when the PCM detects a fluctuating HO2S voltage sufficient in order to allow Closed Loop operation. This will not occur unless the exhaust oxygen sensor is warmed up.

HO2S Sensor 1:  Scan tool displays 0-111 mV. Indicates the exhaust oxygen sensor output voltage. While operating in Closed Loop, the voltage should constantly fluctuate from 10 mV, indicating a lean exhaust, to 1000 mV.

HO2S Sensor 2 : Scan tool displays 0-111 mV . Indicates the exhaust oxygen sensor output voltage. Voltage should stay within a limited range when the catalytic converter and HO2S are at operating temperature, indicating an efficiently operating catalyst.

HO2S XCounts: Scan tool displays 0-255. Indicates the number of times the HO2S 1 signal has crossed the 450 mV bias voltage during a 1-second interval. A HO2S 1 signal that almost never crosses the bias voltage could indicate a fuel trim problem, a faulty HO2S 1 circuit, or a faulty HO2S 1.

IAT: Scan tool displays -40°C+151°C (-40°F-+304°F). The PCM converts the resistance of the intake air temperature sensor to degrees. The PCM uses intake air temperature (IAT) in order to adjust the fuel delivery and the spark timing according to the incoming air density. IAT is also compared to ECT at start-up in order to identify cold starts for the HO2S heater and the EVAP diagnostics.

Ignition 1: Scan tool displays 0-25.5 volts. Represents the system voltage measured by the PCM at its ignition feed.

Ignition Mode: Scan tool displays BYPASS or IC. Indicates the commanded state of the Bypass signal output from the PCM. When BYPASS is displayed, the ignition control (IC) module is controlling the spark advance at a fixed 10 degrees before top dead center (BTDC) . IC displayed indicates that the PCM has requested control of the spark advance . The ignition control module determines the correct operating mode based on the level of voltage that the PCM applies to the ignition control module bypass circuit. The PCM provides 5 volts to the ignition control module bypass circuit when the conditions are appropriate for PCM control of the spark timing. This represents IC mode. If the PCM does not apply 5  volts to the bypass circuit, or if the ignition control module does not receive it, the module will control spark timing. This represents BYPASS mode.

Injector Pulse Width: Scan tool displays 0-1000 msec. Indicates the amount of time the PCM is commanding each injector ON during each engine cycle. A longer injector pulse width will cause more fuel to be delivered. Injector pulse width should increase with increased engine load.

Knock Retard: Scan tool displays 0.0-25.5 degrees. Indicates the amount of spark the PCM is removing from IC spark advance in response to the signal from the knock sensors. The traction control system Desired Torque signal from the EBTCM may cause Knock Retard to display a value more than 0.0 degrees if the traction control is active.

Long Term Fuel Trim: Scan tool displays -25-+20 percent. Long Term Fuel Trim is derived from the Short Term Fuel Trim value and represents a long-term correction of fuel delivery. A value of 0 percent indicates that fuel delivery requires no compensation in order to maintain the PCM commanded air-to-fuel ratio. A negative value significantly below 0 percent indicates that the fuel system is rich and the fuel delivery is being reduced. This condition is represented by a decreased injector pulse width. A positive value significantly more than 0 percent indicates that a lean condition exists and the PCM is compensating by adding fuel. This represents an increased injector pulse width. Because Long Term Fuel Trim tends to follow Short Term Fuel Trim, a value in the negative range due to canister purge at idle should not be considered unusual. The maximum authority of the PCM to control long term fuel trim allows a range of -27-+27 percent. Fuel trim values at or near the maximum authority may indicate an excessively rich or lean system.

Loop Status:  Scan tool displays OPEN or CLOSED. Closed Loop indicates that the PCM is controlling fuel delivery according to oxygen sensor voltage. In Open Loop, the PCM ignores the oxygen sensor voltage and bases the amount of fuel to be delivered on throttle position (TP) sensor, the engine coolant, and MAF sensor inputs only.

MAF: Scan tool displays 0.0-512 g/s. Mass Air Flow (MAF) is the MAF Input Frequency converted to grams of air per second. This indicates the amount of air entering the engine.

MAF Frequency: Scan tool displays 0-32000 Hz. The mass air flow sensor input signal to the PCM is a frequency which varies from approximately 3000 Hz at idle to more than 7000 Hz at wide-open throttle. The PCM converts this frequency signal to grams per second. The signal is displayed on the scan tool as MAF.

MAP: Scan tool displays 10-105 kPa and 0.00-5.00 volts. The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor measures the change in the intake manifold pressure from the engine load, the EGR flow, and the speed changes. As the intake manifold pressure increases, the intake vacuum decreases, resulting in a higher MAP sensor voltage and kPa reading. The MAP sensor signal is used in order to monitor the intake manifold pressure changes during the EGR flow test, to update the BARO reading, and as an enabling factor for many of the diagnostics.

MIL: IPC Data List -- Scan tool displays ON or OFF. Indicates the PCM commanded state of the malfunction indicator lamp.

MIL: ODD Data List -- Scan tool displays OK, Fault or Invalid State. These parameters describe the condition of the control circuit.

Misfire Current Cyl 1-6: Scan tool displays 0-198 Counts. The Misfire Current counters indicate the number of cylinder firing events detected as possible misfires on each cylinder during the last 200 crankshaft revolutions. The number that the counters display are twice the actual number of misfire events that are detected. The counters may normally display some activity, but the activity should be very low and nearly equal for all cylinders.

Misfire History Cyl 1-6: Scan tool displays 0-65535 counts. The Misfire History counters indicate the total level of misfire that has been detected on each cylinder. The number that the counters display are twice the actual number of misfire events detected. The Misfire History counters will not update or show any activity until a misfire DTC P0300 has become active. The Misfire History counters will be updated every time a 200-crankshaft revolution misfire test failure is detected.

Non Volatile Memory: Scan tool displays Pass or Fail. This indicates the state of the random access memory (RAM) of the PCM.

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

Reduced Engine Power: Scan tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. The scan tool displays Active when the PCM has diagnosed a ETC problem or during drivetrain abuse protection. The PCM limits the engine power.

Short Term Fuel Trim : Scan tool displays -27-+27 percent. Short Term Fuel Trim represents a short-term correction to the fuel delivery by the PCM 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 has mainly remained less than 450 mV, indicating a lean air-to-fuel mixture, the short term fuel trim will increase into the positive range above 0 percent and the PCM will add fuel. If the oxygen sensor voltage stays mainly above the threshold, the short term fuel trim will decrease below 0 percent into the negative range while the PCM reduces fuel delivery in order to compensate for the indicated rich condition. Under certain conditions such as extended idle and high ambient temperatures, canister purge may cause Short Term Fuel Trim to read in the negative range during normal operation. The maximum authority of the PCM to control the fuel trim allows a range of -27-+27 percent. Fuel trim values at maximum authority may indicate an excessively rich or lean system.

Spark: Scan tool displays -64-+64 degrees. Displays the spark timing being commanded by the PCM on the IC circuit. 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. Because the ignition control module sets spark advance at a fixed value of 10 degrees BTDC while operating in Bypass mode, the displayed Spark advance only reflects true spark timing when the PCM has commanded IC mode.

Start-Up ECT: Scan tool displays -40°C-+151°C ( -40°F-+304°F). Indicates the engine coolant temperature at the time that the vehicle was started. Used by the HO2S diagnostic in order to determine if the last startup was a cold start.

Start-Up IAT: Scan tool displays -40°C-+151°C (-40°F-+304°F). Indicates the Intake Air Temperature at the time that the vehicle was started. Used by the HO2S diagnostic in order to determine if the last start-up was a cold start.

Total Misfire Failures Since First Fail: Scan tool displays 0-65535 Counts. Indicates the number of 200-crankshaft revolution sample periods during which the level of misfire was sufficiently high to report a failure.

Total Misfire Passes Since First Fail: Scan tool displays 0 to 65535 Counts. Indicates the number of 200-crankshaft revolution sample periods during which the level of misfire was sufficiently low to report a pass.

TP Angle: Scan tool displays 0-100 percent. Indicates throttle plate position.

Traction Control: Scan tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. Active will be displayed if a message is received from the electronic brake and traction control module (EBTCM) requesting torque reduction.

Traction Control Desired Torque: Scan tool range 0-100 percent. Represents the pulse width modulation (PWM) signal from the electronic brake and traction control module. The EBTCM reduces the Traction Control Desired Torque signal pulse width when a drive wheel slippage situation is detected. The PCM monitors the Traction Control Desired Torque signal and reduces the drive wheel slippage as necessary by retarding the spark timing, or by increasing the air-to-fuel ratio. The PCM can also turn OFF up to three fuel injectors if the Traction Control Desired Torque signal indicates enough drive wheel slippage. A problem with the Traction Control Desired Torque signal should cause a DTC to set.

Traction Control Torque: Scan tool range 0-100 percent. Represents the 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 in order to ensure that the PCM is responding properly to the Traction Control Desired Torque signal.

Transmission Range: Scan tool displays INVALID, PARK/NEUTRAL, REVERSE, DRIVE 4, DRIVE 3, DRIVE 2, or LOW. Transmission Range represents the decoded status of the four inputs from the transaxle range switch assembly. The combination of transaxle range inputs indicates the position of the transaxle manual valve.

TR Switch A/B/C/P: Scan Tool Displays HIGH or LOW. The Transmission Range (TR) Switch A/B/C/P display represents the states of the four inputs from the transaxle range switch. HIGH displayed indicates a B+ voltage signal being monitored at the PCM. LOW displayed indicates a grounded input signal. The combination of transaxle range inputs indicates the position of the transaxle manual valve.

TWC Protection: Scan tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. ACTIVE displayed indicates that the PCM has detected conditions appropriate to operate in Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) Protection mode. This is determined based on the engine load and the engine coolant temperature. While in TWC Protection, the PCM will decrease the air-to-fuel to a value that depends on mass air flow. Higher mass air flow equals a lower air-to-fuel ratio.

Vehicle Speed: Scan tool displays 0-255 km/h (0-155 mph). The vehicle speed sensor signal is converted into mph and km/h for display.

VTD Fuel Disable: Scan tool displays ACTIVE or INACTIVE. The Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable circuit is an input from the Vehicle Theft Deterrent Control system that signals the PCM in order to enable the injectors if the proper signal is received. The scan tool will normally display INACTIVE. If the Vehicle Theft Deterrent Control system does not send the correct Theft Deterrent Fuel Enable signal to the PCM, the display will switch to ACTIVE and the fuel system may be disabled.
