Diagnostic Information

1999 Chevrolet Express 1 Ton Van V8-5.7L VIN RSECTION Diagnostic Information
The diagnostic tables and functional checks are designed to locate a poor circuit or component through a process of logical decisions. The tables are prepared with the assumption that the vehicle functioned correctly at the time of assembly and that there are no multiple faults present.

There is a continuous self-diagnosis on certain control functions. This diagnostic capability is complemented by the diagnostic procedures. The language of communicating the source of the malfunction is a system of diagnostic trouble codes. When a malfunction is detected by the control module, a diagnostic trouble code will set and the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate on some applications.
