DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION AND PROCEDURES DIAGNOSTIC STARTING POINT - ENGINE EXHAUST Begin the system diagnosis by reviewing the system Description and Operation. Reviewing the information will help you determine the correct symptom diagnostic procedure when a malfunction exists. It will also help you determine if the condition described by the customer is normal operation. Refer to Symptoms - Engine Exhaust in order to identify the correct procedure for diagnosing the system. SYMPTOMS - ENGINE EXHAUST 



Review the Exhaust System Description and Operation in order to familiarize yourself with the system functions. Refer to Exhaust System Description. All diagnostics on a vehicle should follow a logical process. Strategy Based Diagnostics is a uniform approach for repairing all systems. The diagnostic flow is the place to start when repairs are necessary and may always be used in order to resolve a system problem. For a detailed explanation, refer to

Strategy Based Diagnosis . Visual/Physical Inspection 



Inspect for aftermarket or non-OEM devices such as, but not limited too; tailpipe extensions, headers, and exhaust cutouts. This could affect the operation and proper performance of the exhaust system. Verify the exact operating conditions under which the concern exists. Note factors such as engine RPM, engine temperature, engine load, and frequency of concern. Inspect the easily accessible or visible system components for obvious damage or conditions which could cause any symptom.

Intermittent

Test the vehicle under the same conditions that the customer reported in order to verify the system is operating as designed. Symptom List

Refer to a symptom diagnostic procedure from the following list in order to diagnose the symptom:        

Loss of power. Refer to Restricted Exhaust. Poor acceleration. Refer to Restricted Exhaust. Poor fuel economy. Refer to Restricted Exhaust. Exhaust hissing noise. Refer to Exhaust Leakage. Exhaust popping noise. Refer to Exhaust Leakage. Exhaust rattle noise. Refer to Exhaust Noise. Loud exhaust noise. Refer to Exhaust Noise. Exhaust buzz, groan, hum noise. Refer to Exhaust Noise.

RESTRICTED EXHAUST Test Description

CAUTION: While engine is operating, the exhaust system will become extremely hot. To prevent burns avoid contacting a hot exhaust system. The numbers below refer to the step numbers in the diagnostic table. 3: The exhaust system has very low back pressure under normal conditions. If the exhaust system is restricted, a significant increase in the exhaust pressure is noticed on the J 35314-A Exhaust Back Pressure Gage. See Special Tools. Removing the heater oxygen sensor (HO2S) may set a diagnostic trouble code (DTC). When finishing this diagnostic table, be sure to clear all codes. 4: This step will isolate the catalytic converter from the remainder of the exhaust system. 7: Confirming that the condition has been fixed is essential. If the symptom still exists and the vehicle has Microsoft Friday, April 16, 2010 11:57:21 AM

Fig. 45: View Of Catalytic Converter Assembly HO2S's Courtesy of GENERAL MOTORS CORP. 26. Remove the HO2S's (1-5) from the catalytic converter assembly. Installation Procedure

IMPORTANT: A special anti-seize compound is used on the HO2S threads. The compound consists of liquid graphite and glass beads. The graphite tends to burn away, but the glass beads remain, making the sensor easier to remove. New, or service replacement sensors already have the compound applied to the threads. If the sensor is removed from as exhaust component and if for any reason the sensor is to be reinstalled, the threads must have anti-seize compound applied before the reinstallation.

If reinstalling the old sensors, coat the threads with anti-seize compound GM P/N 12377953, or equivalent. NOTE:

Replacement components must be the correct part number for the application. Components requiring the use of the thread locking compound, lubricants, corrosion inhibitors, or sealants are identified in the service procedure. Some replacement components may come with these coatings already applied. Do not use these coatings on components unless specified. These coatings can affect the final torque, which may affect the operation of the component. Use the correct torque specification when installing components in order to avoid damage.
