7 ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEMS DIAGNOSTICS 305
4. If code is active, do step 6 and 7 to check circuit
for the APS sensor using the following table.
• Circuit C he cks for APS Sens or
5. If code is inactive, wiggle connectors and wires
at all suspected problem locations. If circuit
continuity is inte rrup te d, the EST will d isp lay
DTCs related to the condition.
6. Disconnect chassis harness from APS sensor.
NOTE: Inspect connectors for damaged pins,
corrosion, or loose pins. Repair if necessary.
7. Connect APS Sensor Breakout Harness to
chassis harness only.
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, possible death, or damage to the engine or vehicle,
always disconnect main negative battery cable first. Always connect the main negative battery cable
last.
Circuit Checks for APS Sensor (Use EST, DMM, breakout harness, and 500 Ohm Resistor Harness.)
Test Condition Spec Checks

0V
If voltage > 0.147 V, check signal circuit for short to V

5V±0.5V
If voltage > 5.5 V, check V
REF
for short to B+. If voltage is <

chassis ground P in A of
connector 9260 using DMM.
<5Ω If resistance is > 5 Ω, check for open or high resistance
between ECM and sensor connector. Use a breakout box
and m easure resistance from between Pin B and Pin X4–24
(spec < 5 Ω).
Connect chassis harness to sensor and cycle key. Use the EST to clear DTCs. If an active code
remains after checking test conditions, inspect pedal assembly for excessive wear. If pedal
assembly is in tact, replace the APS/IVS sensor.

Connector 9260 is a 2-wire connector us ually located in the battery box. Pin A is the chassis ground connection for the
ECM and IDM. See truck Chassis Electrical Circuit Diagram Manual for comp lete chassis s ide ECM and IDM g r ou nd
circuit information.
