Confirmed customer complaint and found that the accelerator is erratic. With the key on, engine off, monitored the live scan tool data and observed the accelerator pedal position sensor parameter was not within the specified range. Inspected the accelerator pedal position sensor wiring harness and connector, but detected no obvious faults. Performed a throttle sweep, monitored the accelerator pedal position sensor signal parameters using the scan tool, and found the accelerator pedal position sensor signal parameters did not maintain the specified correlation as the throttle was swept. These test results verified the accelerator pedal position sensor was faulty. – Customer acknowledged notice and gave oral approval of estimated repairs. REMOVE ALL NECESSARY COMPONENTS. REMOVE AND REPLACE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR. ASSEMBLE TOGETHER AND MAKE ALL NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS. TEST ALL AFFECTED AREAS.

Connected a scan tool and found code P0301 – Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected. Performed a road test while monitoring live scan tool data and observed the misfire counts increased on cylinder #1. Inspected the ignition system and detected no obvious faults. Connected an inline spark tester to spark plug #1, cranked the engine and found the lamp illuminated brightly. Inspected the fuel injector #1 wiring harness and connector, but found no obvious faults. With the ignition on and the engine off, used a multi-meter to check for the presence of voltage and ground at the fuel injector #1 connector and found both were present. Possible carbon build-up on injectors and engine valves. Needs to be cleaned as the first step.

Confirmed the customer's concern and observed engine coolant leaked from under the vehicle. Visually inspected the vehicle’s engine coolant level and found it was below the minimum level. Filled the engine coolant to the proper operating level, attached the pressure tester to the engine cooling system, and pressurized the system to check for leaks. The engine cooling system did not retain the applied pressure, which indicated an engine coolant leak was present. Continued to apply pressure to the engine cooling system, inspected the system for signs of an external engine coolant leak, and found the heater hose connector and thermostat housing had leaked.
REMOVE ALL NECESSARY COMPONENTS. REMOVE AND REPLACE HEATER HOSE CONNECTOR AND THERMOSTAT HOUSING. ASSEMBLE TOGETHER AND MAKEA LL NECESSARY ADJSUTMENTS.
