We scanned for codes and found P193C-00 steering angle signal, U0121-00 Lost communication with anti-lock brake system (ABS) Control Module A. We found a technical service bulletin in relation to both codes showing a recall for this problem. We recommend taking the vehicle to the dealer to preform the recall. We also found code P0456-00 Evap system leak detected. We smoke tested the vehicle and found no leaks. We then checked the purge valve for operation and found that when commanded 0% with the scan tool the valve continues to pull the tank into a vacuum. These tests confirm that the purge valve is faulty. We recommend replacing the purge valve.

P0345 Camshaft position sensor (A) circuit. Bank 2 P0349 Camshaft position sensor (A) circuit intermittent. Bank 2 Swapped Bank 1 and Bank 2 camshaft position sensors and cleared codes. Let truck run and both codes came back quickly. Unplugged sensor and traced wires back to the pcm and tested them, found they are okay. Found a TSB that states the alternator can have excessive ripple that can cause these codes to appear, disconnected the alternator and cleared codes and started, again codes came back. Tried a new cam positioning sensor with a new connector and same result. We have come to the conclusion the truck will need a PCM. After our extensive search through the dealer network we have found that this part is obsolete………………..

Started vehicle to pull into shop noticed fuel light is on, has little fuel. Put into drive and noticed a clunk while accelerating, possible broken engine mount. See if customer wants us to look into that concern. Removed cover to access that radiator cap, found low on coolant. Filled and pressure tested, system can only handle 3 psi of pressure before it sprays out of the radiator, found coolant hoses are hard as well. Recommend replacing the radiator w/ cap, hoses. Upper and lower as well as the heater hoses. Vehicle is equipped with front and rear heat. Heater hoses should come from the dealer. After repair i can test drive and test other components. Oil life 94%.
HEATER HOSES – Remove & Replace – Main Heater,Both –
Replaced radiator and hoses, filled with coolant and pressure tested. Vehicle held pressure and no other leaks found at this time. Test drove, vehicle did not over heat and fans cycle on and off with heat.
