db11: Check Continuity of ACT Signal and Signal Return
Steps _Key OFF, wait 10 seconds
_Harness disconnected from ACT sensor
_Disconnect processor 60 pin connector. Inspect for damaged pins, corrosion, loose wires, etc. Service as necessary
_Install breakout box, leave processor disconnected
_DVOM on 200 ohm scale
_Measure resistance between ACT SIGNAL, at the ACT vehicle harness connector, and Test Pin 25 at the breakout box
_Measure resistance between SIGNAL RETURN, at the ACT vehicle harness connector, and Test Pin 46 at the breakout box
Result Are both resistances less than 5 ohms?
Direction YES

Replace processor. Remove breakout box. Reconnect processor and ACT sensor. Rerun Quick Test

NO

Service open circuit(s). Remove breakout box. Reconnect processor and ACT sensor. Rerun Quick Test
