Another C4 1995 NO START
Just completed the following ..... but still have the problem....
checked all the codes in the computers again, CCM 1.2, 1.3, 1.4. all these settings are normal and indicate the CCM is communicating to all the sensors correctly. In 1.3 mode, I could see the CCM turning on/off sensors/lights. So this tells me the CCM GROUNDS ARE GOOD. Also verified again there are no stored DTC codes in the PCM/ECM/ABS/TCS/DERM.
All my grounds from the PCM are good. Pulled the PCM connectors off, connected the test light to each ground pin and light came on.
Also did a continuity test on the Opti 4 wire connector back to the PCM:
B2 - Low Resolution Signal Input was 3.4 ohms
B3 - Distributor Reference Low Signal was 2.0 ohms
B14 - Distributor Ignition Feed was 0.6 ohms
B20 - High Resolution Signal Input was 0.8 ohms
I can't find anywhere in the SM that tells me if B2 and B3 should be that high....ANYONE KNOW????
According to the SM, I still need to test the following which causes a crank no start:
B2 - Low Resolution Signal (but this should set DTC 16)
B3 - Distributor Reference low signal (No DTC set)
B5 - Ignition Control (should set DTC 41 or 42 and I installed a new coil an d ICM so can rule this one out)
B14 - Distributor Feed (No DTC set)
B15 - PCM Battery Feed (No DTC set and has something to do with the Oil pressure switch)
B30 - PCM Ignition Feed (No DTC set)
The test for B2 is "TEST CONNECTOR 'A' DISTRIBUTOR 'A' " and B3 uses "D"..............IS THIS JUST A CONTINUITY TEST??? Same as I did above?
Also rechecked all the DTC's .... nothing
Did you check for spark DIRECTLY from the coil output terminal to ground ??
-If spark --> Opti (heck, maybe the 2 screws from the rotor came off)
PCM(determines timing in 1 degree increments from Opti High resolution) --> ICM (timed ground signal received from PCM) --> Coil (primary grounded, secondary discharges high voltage)--> Opti(receives high voltage, transfers to correct cylinder via rotor position) --> PCM(Opti sensor feedback, low/high res, adjusts rich/lean per conditions of O2 sensor)
I think you are close....real close.....
