Test sequence and decision path

1. Connect the WDS and check that P2105 is
logged. Note which PCM has recorded the fault.
Note all other fault codes and resolve all other
problems first. Retest to check if P2105 is logged
again.
This code indicates an internal PCM fault.

2. Check that the latest level of PCM hardware is fitted and that it is flashed with the latest level of
software. Reflash the PCM if necessary.

3. Run a road test including a wide range of throttle
actuations.
