### Circuit Description

Output Driver Modules (ODMs) are used by the PCM to turn on many of the current-driven devices that are needed to control various engine and Transaxle functions. Each ODM is capable of controlling up to 7 separate outputs by applying ground to the device which the PCM is commanding ON. Unlike the Quad Driver Modules (QDMs) used in prior model years, ODMs have the capability of diagnosing each output circuit individually. DTC P1665 set indicates an improper voltage level has been detected on ODM D output 5, which controls the EVAP canister vent valve.

### Conditions for Setting the DTC

• | The ignition is ON.

• | An improper voltage level has been detected on the EVAP canister vent valve control circuit.

• | The above conditions are present for at least 30 seconds.

### Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• | The PCM will not illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).

• | The PCM will store conditions which were present when the DTC set as Failure Records data only. This information will not be stored as Freeze Frame data.

### Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

• | A History DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.

• | The DTC can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear Info function.

### Diagnostic Aids

Check for the following conditions:

• | Poor connection at PCM or the EVAP canister vent valve.

| Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and poor terminal to wire connection.

• | Damaged harness.

| Inspect the wiring harness for damage.

• | If the harness appears to be OK, disconnect the PCM, turn the ignition ON and observe a voltmeter connected to the EVAP canister vent valve control circuit at the PCM harness connector while moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the EVAP canister vent valve. A change in voltage will indicate the location of the malfunction.

Reviewing the Fail Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition that caused the DTC to be set occurs. This may assist in diagnosing the condition.

### Test Description

Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the Diagnostic Chart.

1. Ignition feed voltage should be present on the control circuit with the PCM disconnected and the ignition turned ON.

2. Checks for a shorted component or a short to B+ on the control circuit. Either condition would result in a measured current of over 800 milliamps. Also checks for a component that is going open while being operated, resulting in a measured current of 0 milliamps.

3. Checks for a short to voltage on the control circuit.
