512 7 ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEMS DIAGNOSTICS
MAT Pin-Point Diagnostics
Connector Voltage Checks to Ground (Disconnect harness from sensor. Inspect for bent pins or corrosion.
Connect breakout harness to engine harness only. Turn the ignition switch to ON.)

or battery.
2tognd 4.6Vto5V
Pull up voltage. If no voltage, circuit has open or high resistance or
short to ground.
Connector Resistance Checks to ECM Chassis Ground (Turn
the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect
harness from sensor. Connect breakout harness to engin
e harness only. Disconnect chassis connector

.)
1 to Pin A (9260) < 5 Ω If > 5 Ω, check for open circuit.
2 to Pin A (9260) > 1 kΩ If < 1 kΩ, check for short to ground w ithin wiring harness.
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.
Connector Resistance Checks to Chassis Grou

ery cable. Disconnect harness from sensor. Connect breakout
harness to engine harness only. Use dis
connected negative battery cable for ground test point.)

Harness Resistanc e Checks (Connect
breakout box [X1 and X2 only] to engine harness. Connect
breakout harness to engine harness
only.)
X1–6 to 1
<5Ω If > 5 Ω, check for open ground wire.
X2–14to2
<5Ω If > 5 Ω, check for open sig nal wire.

Connector 9260 is a 2-wi r e connector usually lo c ated in the battery box. Pin A is the chassis ground connection for the
ECM and IDM. See truck Chassis Electrical Circuit Diagram Manual for complete chassis side ECM and IDM g round
circuit information.
Operational Voltage Checks for MAT Sensor with Breakout Harness (Check with breakout harness
connected to sensor and engine harness.)
