84088M Mercury BOLT

The following conditions must exist before any of the preceding codes will become active:
The ECM has been powered for at least 2 seconds.
There are no active 168 codes.
There are no active 3509 (262) codes.Use this procedure to troubleshoot the position sensors for the following valves:
NRS valve
Engine intake throttle valve
Combustion air valve for the Aftertreatment Regeneration Device (ARD)Each position sensor is integral in the associated valve. If the following procedure indicates a fault with the position sensor, then the entire valve must be replaced.The following background information is related to this procedure:The troubleshooting procedures for the diagnostic codes of each position sensor are identical. The 5 VDC sensor supply provides power to all 5 VDC sensors. The ECM supplies 5.0 VDC to terminal "5" of the engine intake throttle valve connector and to terminal "1" of the other valve connectors. The sensor common from the ECM connector goes to terminal "3" of the engine intake throttle valve connector. The sensor common from the ECM connector goes to terminal "2" of the other valve connectors. The sensor supply is output short circuit protected. A short circuit to the battery will not damage the circuit inside the ECM. The signal voltage from terminal "4" of the engine intake throttle valve is supplied to the appropriate terminal at the P2 ECM connector. The signal voltage from terminal "3" of the other valves is supplied to the appropriate terminal at the P2 ECM connector.Pull-up VoltageThe ECM continuously outputs a pull-up voltage on the circuit for the sensor signal wire. The ECM uses this pull-up voltage to detect an open in the signal circuit. When the ECM detects a voltage above a threshold on the signal circuit, the ECM generates an open circuit diagnostic code (XXXX-3) for the sensor.If the sensor is disconnected, pull-up voltage at the sensor connector indicates that the wires are not open or shorted to ground. If the sensor is disconnected , the absence of pull-up voltage indicates an open in the signal wire or a short to ground. If the sensor is disconnected and the voltage is different from pull-up voltage, the signal wire is shorted to another wire in the harness.
