Safety Precautions Before replacing any damaged component you should always first determine what caused the component to fail and repair that before continuing. Static electricity can damage electronic components. By following a few safety procedures you can reduce the risk of damage from static electricity.
ART 1168-0794 REV 6/99
(Continued on page 2)
1. Avoid contact with the electrical connectors. 2. By frequently touching a known good ground during installation you can discharge any static electricity that you may have developed. Caution: Do not remove grease from 60 or 14 way connector or connector cavities in computer. The grease is used in order to prevent moisture from corroding the terminals. If there isn’t at least 1/8 inch of grease on bottom of computer connector cavities, apply Mopar Multipurpose Grease Part # 04318063 or equivalent to bottom of connector before reinstalling computer.

Troubleshooting Tips for S M E C Controllers
• •
Common failures that cause mis-diagnosis of SMEC Controllers: •
•
•
• •
• • •
•
• • • • • • •
Part numbers R5276435 & R5276442 use 1989 diagnostic software. For proper scan tool communications, let the unit AUTO I.D. or enter 1989 vin code (K) when prompted. Intermittent grounds; Loose or corroded grounds may cause false sensor readings. Verify all sensor grounds terminate at SMEC 60 way connector, pin 4 (bk/lb* wire). Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor and Throttle position sensor (TPS) voltages; check voltage over the entire range, not just the extremes. Whenever possible use oscilloscope to check MAP sensor and TPS sensor output voltages for noise spikes. Verify minimum T.P.S. voltage. Minimum TPS voltage should be approximately .8 to 1.2 vdc. Automatic idle speed (AIS) motor; Shorted windings or intermittent connections. If AIS codes are present , check to ensure motor windings or related connectors are not shorted to ground. Heater voltage for oxygen sensor; Verify battery volts + 1 volt at oxygen sensor connector (dg/bk wire) with engine running. Charging system malfunction; Alternator defective or battery not fully charged. Check alternator output to ensure there is not excessive ripple voltage. Sensor voltage supply; Check for approximately 5 volt output from 60 way SMEC connector pin 13 (vt/wt* wire) to MAP and TPS sensor, with ignition switch on. Distributor voltage supply; Check for approximately 8 to 9 1/2 vdc output from 60 way SMEC connector pin 52 (org wire) to distributor connector(s) with ignition switch on. Other things to consider: Auto-shutdown (ASD) relay; Corroded wires or faulty relay. Minimum air flow; check for air leaks or airflow obstruction. Vacuum system; Contaminants or leaks in vacuum lines, notably in line connected to M.A.P. sensor. Fuel pressure and leak down. Vehicle speed sensor operation. Crankshaft and Camshaft sensors; Some aftermarket pick-ups have not worked properly with Mopar engine controllers. Splices and Fusible Links; check for open and/or shorted wires.

Closed throttle switch operation on B/AB, D/AD, N/AN bodies. Damaged connector terminals; Remove gasket from SMEC 60 way connector, reseat connector, and check for symptom/problem. If symptom/problem has been corrected, check 60 way harness and/or connector for terminal damage or loose connection. Excessive current on certain connector pins may damage the SMEC. Use of a test lamp or a short in the wiring harness of the vehicle can cause this condition. Always use a DVM when checking the unit/system. Check Technical Service Bulletins according to model year and system malfunction.
On Board Diagnostics The Single Module Engine Controller (SMEC) has been programmed to monitor several different circuits of the fuel injection system. This monitoring is called On Board Diagnosis. If a problem is sensed with a monitored circuit often enough to indicate an actual problem, its Fault Code is stored in the SMEC for eventual display to the service technician. If the problem is repaired or ceases to exist, the SMEC cancels the Fault Code after 50 to 100 vehicle key on/off cycles.
Fault Code Description When a fault code appears, either by flashes of the check engine lamp or by watching the Diagnostic Tool, it indicates that the SMEC has recognized an abnormal signal in the system. Fault codes indicate the results of a failure but never identify the failed component directly.
Obtaining Fault Codes 1. Connect Diagnostic Tool to the connector located in the engine compart ment near the SMEC. 2. Start the engine if possible, cycle the transmission selector and the A/C switch if applicable. Shut off the engine. 3. Turn the ignition switch on, off, on, off, on within 5 seconds. Record all the diagnostic codes shown on the Diagnostic Tool, observe the check engine lamp on the instrument panel; the lamp should light for 3 seconds then go out (bulb check).
If you do not have a Diagnostic Readout Tool use the procedure which follows. 1. Start the engine (if possible). 2. With brakes applied, cycle the transmission selector and the A/C Switch (if applicable). Shut off the engine. (Continued on page 6) 5
3. Turn ignition switch on, off, on, off, on within 5 seconds. This activates the display of the fault codes through flashes of the check engine lamp on the instrument panel. 4. The Check Engine Lamp should light for two seconds to verify the bulb is good, then go out. 5. To display fault codes the lamp will flash briefly, (first digit of the fault code) pause, then flash briefly again ( second digit of the fault code), followed by a longer pause before displaying the next fault code. 6. After all fault codes have been displayed Code 55 will be displayed indicating the end of fault code messages.
