4b.4.9 Test GIV
(Gas Inlet Valve)
To test the gas inlet valve the software first closes the GIV. It reads the A/D
channel for the GIV. If the A/D channel for the GIV does not read closed, the
test fails; otherwise, the test continues.
The software then opens the flow valve to the calibrated flow of the bleed
resistor and waits for the flow to stabilize (about 2 seconds). Once the flow is
stabilized the software checks to see if manifold pressure has dropped to less
than 0.5 cm H
2
O. If manifold pressure does not drop below 0.5 cm H
2
O, the
test fails; otherwise, the test continues.
The software then closes the flow valve and opens the GIV. It reads the A/D
channel for the GIV. If the A/D channel for the GIV does not read open, the test
fails.
GIV test FAIL instructions
Failure can be caused by the valve malfunctioning or the CPU board.
Use a multimeter to measure the resistance of the GIV solenoid. It should be
approximately 25 ohms. If necessary, replace the GIV solenoid (see Section
7.9).
Use a multimeter to measure the voltage at the inlet valve connector on the
pneumatic connection board. The voltage should be 4.5 volts when the GIV is
open.
• If the voltage is 4.5 volts or greater, service the GIV (see Section 7.9).
• If the voltage is less than 4.5 volts replace the CPU board (see Section 7.5).
