2009 chevy cobalt has p0641 code with traction control turned off, engine in reduced power mode

Do you know anything about ECM five volt reference circuit's ?
DTC P0641: 5-Volt Reference 1 Circuit
The engine control module (ECM) has 3 internal 5-volt reference busses called 5-volt reference 1, 5-volt reference 2, and 5-volt reference 3. Each reference bus provides 5-volt reference circuits for more than one sensor. Therefore, a fault condition on one 5-volt reference circuit will affect the other 5-volt reference circuits connected to that reference bus. The ECM monitors the voltage on the 5-volt reference busses.

The 5-volt reference 1 bus provides 5 volts to the following sensors:
• The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
• The clutch apply sensor
• The fuel rail sensor
• The fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor
• The intake air pressure and temperature sensor

You have a shorted sensor more then likely or wiring problem . Suggest you watch this video .

Code on 2010 Enclave about the cooling fans running all the time while engine is on.Code is refrigerant pressure sensor cicuit low voltage. # is P0532-00.Does anybody know where sensor is located

DTC P0532: Air Conditioning A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit Low Voltage
The sensor gets 5 volt ref. voltage from the ECM - engine control module . Three wire sensor , all wires are to an from the ECM .

Circuit/System Description
The engine control module (ECM) monitors the high side refrigerant pressure through the A/C refrigerant pressure sensor. The ECM supplies a 5-volt reference and a low reference to the sensor. Changes in the A/C refrigerant pressure cause the A/C refrigerant pressure sensor signal to the ECM to vary. When the pressure is low, the signal voltage is low. When the pressure is high, the ECM commands the cooling fans on. When pressure is too high or too low, the ECM will not allow the A/C compressor clutch to engage.

Circuit/System Testing
Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the A/C refrigerant pressure sensor.
Ignition OFF, test for less than 10 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
? If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
? If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
? If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
Verify the scan tool A/C High Side Pressure Sensor parameter is less than 0.1 volts (1 psi).
? If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the scan tool A/C Refrigerant High Side Pressure Sensor parameter is greater than 4.90 volts (425 psi).
? If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
If all circuits test normal, test or replace the A/C refrigerant pressure sensor.

A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor
In the engine compartment, on the high pressure refrigerant line

Chevy cobalt 2010 scan code po641 reduce engine power

Possible causes
- Faulty Engine Control Module (ECM)
- ECM harness is open or shorted
- ECM circuit poor electrical connection
- Shorted sensor on 5 volt circuit
help.jpg What does this mean? When is the code detected?
The Engine Control Module (ECM) has detected the sensor 5 volt reference circuit voltage is higher or lower than expected
Possible symptoms
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
P0641 Chevrolet Description
The control module has 2 internal 5-volt reference buses called "5-volt reference 1" and"5-volt reference 2". Each reference bus provided 5-volt reference circuit for more than one sensor. Therefore, a fault condition on one 5-volt reference circuit will affect the other 5-volt reference circuits connected to the reference bus. The control module monitors the voltage on the 5-volt reference buses.

Start and dies, codes p061f, p2106,p2104,p2111

code p2106 refers to throttle actuator control (TAC) system--limited power mode===causes ---wiring---TAC motor---APP sensor---ECM

code o2104 refers to TAQC systems ---forced idle mode===causes wiring---TAC motor--APP sensor--ECM

code p2111 refers to TAC system --actuator stuck open ==causes ---throttle body--throttle valve tight/ sticking

code p2111 also refers to TAC system --circuit malfunction==causes wiring---short to positive--short to ground---TP sensor---ECM

code p2111 also has a 3rd section---brake vacuum---implausible signal===causes---wiring---vacuum sensor--mechanical fault

CODE P0101 AND CODE P0341 i have a 96 chevy blazr 2dr 4x4 4.3L. I RECENTLY HIT A LARGE BUMP AND THE TRUCK STALLED.PULLED OVER AND STARTED IT BACK UP .IT RAN A SECOND OR TWO THEN STALLED AGAIN. IT WASN

Well the code 101 is for the MAF sensor and code 341 is for the cam sensor if equipped.
I'm showing a distributor for that engine so its possible something is going on inside of it.
My first guess would be something in the engine harness that was jarred loose.
You might have to test the circuits at the ECM to see if anything is not making the circuit back to it.
If the engine won't idle and the MAF code is present, you could have a large vac leak somewhere.

Code po 652

P0652 DODGE - 5 Volt Sensor Reference 2 Circuit Low
These 5-volt reference circuits are independent of each other outside the PCM, but are bussed together inside the Engine Control Module (ECM). Therefore a circuit condition on one sensor 5-volt reference circuit may affect the other sensor 5-volt reference circuits. The ECM monitors the voltage on the 5-volt reference circuit.

Possible causes
- Shorted sensor
- Shorted sensor circuit
- Failed ECM

When is the code detected? The ECM has detected an out of voltage range on the 5 volt reference circuit 2.

Hope helps.

Po123 04 kai

Hello www_ropesmor,

This code P0123 is Throttle position sensor circuit high input.

There four basic reasons for this code.

1. An open or short to ground between the TPS (throttle position sensor) and the ECM (Engine control module).
2. A short to battery voltage between TPS and the ECM.
3. A short between the TPS wires.
4. A faulty TPS.

See below for connector diagrams.

First, with scan tool monitor TPS with throttle closed voltage should be
I f you don't have a scan tool, back probe terminal 1with a volt meter to ground and you will see the voltage as outlined above otherwise follow the steps below.


1.Check to see if there is about 5 volts at the TPS; with engine off key on disconnect the TPS back probe the harness side terminal 3 to ground with a volt meter if there is about 5 volts go to step 2 if about 5 volts if not repair the 5 volt circuit.

2. Probe the harness side terminal 2 to chassis ground with a volt meter, if voltage above .02 repair circuit 2 short to voltage. If voltage is .02 volts or below go to step 3.

3. Probe the harness side terminal 1 to ground with volt meter if below .5 volts go to step 4 if not repair short to battery between TSP harness and ECM connector

4 Turn the ignition off and disconnect the ECM connector . With an ohm meter measure the resistance between the ECM (terminal C18) and TPS ground circuit it should be below 1 ohm. Measure the resistance between the ECM (terminal C8) and TPS signal circuit it should be below 1 ohm. If not repair the open circuit.

After faulty circuit is found and repaired clear code and verify repair.

high voltage is an indication something is not plugged in or plugged in wrong. You will need to test the harness to see if the required voltage supply is present, connector unplugged, if not then your going to have to determine if the siganl comes from the PCM or the fuse block. If its the PCM you may have a bad PCM. Same thing for the ground side. Now if the reference signal and ground are good you could have a sensor issue but I doubt this because you have high voltage on three components. This tells me that three component signals are not getting back to the PCM. This is why it sets the codes. With all the work you just did I suspect you didnt but the wiring back the way it was. Sometimes people take the ground wire off between the engine and and body because its in the way and don't reinstall it. Or don't tighten it enough. With todays electronics there simple mistakes cause unforeseen issues.
