3. Observe the Misfire Current Counters with a scan tool. The Misfire Current Counters should not be incrementing. Random misfires that are
not steadily incrementing may be normal.
4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify that the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle
within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Circuit/System Testing
Important: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.
1. Verify that the following conditions do not exist:
* The fuel injector wire harness electrical connectors are connected to the wrong fuel injectors. Refer to Engine Controls Schematics (See:
Diagrams/Electrical Diagrams/Powertrain Management/System Diagram).
* Engine vacuum leaks
* Fuel pressure that is too low or too high-Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis (w/o FPCM) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and
Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics)Fuel System Diagnosis (FPCM) (See: Powertrain
Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics).
* Contaminated fuel-Refer to Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Without Special Tool) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers
and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis
(Without Special Tool))Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Special Tool) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air
Induction/Fuel/Testing and Inspection/Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Special Tool)).
* Restricted exhaust system-Refer to Restricted Exhaust (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Exhaust System/Testing and
Inspection/Restricted Exhaust).
瀚慖f you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary.
2. Verify that there is no misfire on cylinders 1, 4, 6, or 7 due to cylinder deactivation-Refer to Cylinder Deactivation (Active Fuel
Management) System Diagnosis (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests
and General Diagnostics/Cylinder Deactivation (Active Fuel Management) System Diagnosis).
3. Ignition OFF, install the J 26792 - Tester to the spark plug wire boot of the misfiring cylinder.
Note: An erratic or weak spark is considered a no spark condition.
4. Attempt to start the engine and observe the J 26792 - Tester. The spark tester should spark.
瀚慖f there is no spark, test the spark plug wire for the correct resistance, refer to Ignition System Specifications (See: Powertrain
Management/Ignition System/Specifications) and Spark Plug Wire Inspection (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Tune-up and
Engine Performance Checks/Ignition Cable/Testing and Inspection).
瀚慖f the spark plug wire tests normal, refer to Electronic Ignition System Diagnosis (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control
Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/Electronic Ignition System Diagnosis) for diagnosis of the
ignition coil.
5. Ignition OFF, remove the spark plug from the misfiring cylinder. Verify that the following conditions do not exist with the spark plug:
* Gas, coolant, or oil fouled
* Cracked, worn, or incorrectly gapped-Refer to Spark Plug Inspection (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Tune-up and Engine
Performance Checks/Spark Plug/Testing and Inspection).
瀚慖f there is a condition with the spark plug, replace the spark plug.
6. Exchange the suspected spark plug with another cylinder that is operating correctly.
7. Operate the engine under the conditions in which the misfire occurred. This may include putting the engine under a load or allowing the
engine to return to a cold condition. Observe the Misfire Current Counters with a scan tool. The misfire should not follow the spark plug
exchange.
瀚慖f the misfire follows with the spark plug, replace the spark plug.
8. If all conditions test normal, test or inspect for the following:
* A lean or rich fuel injector-Refer to Fuel Injector Diagnosis (CH47976) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and Air
Induction/Fuel Injector/Testing and Inspection)Fuel Injector Diagnosis (J39021 or Scan Tool) (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel

Ignition ON, command the E6 center high mounted stop lamp ON and OFF by applying and releasing the brake pedal. The E6 center high mounted
stop lamp should turn ON and OFF each time the brake pedal is applied and released.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the E6 center high mounted stop lamp.
2. Test for less than 30 ohm between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.
瀚慖f greater than the specified value, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal A and ground.
4. Ignition ON, command the center high mounted stop lamp ON and OFF by applying and releasing the brake pedal. The test lamp should turn
ON and OFF when changing between the selected states.
瀚慖f the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
瀚慖f the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace
the K9 BCM.

DTC P0308
- Cylinder 8 Misfire Detected
Circuit/System Description
The engine control module (ECM) uses information from the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor in order to determine when an engine misfire is
occurring, and uses information from the camshaft position (CMP) sensor in order to determine which cylinder is misfiring. By monitoring
variations in the crankshaft rotation speed for each cylinder, the ECM is able to detect individual misfire events. If the ECM detects a misfire rate
sufficient to cause emission levels to exceed mandated standards, DTC P0300 sets. Under certain driving conditions, a misfire rate can be high
enough to cause the catalytic converter to overheat, possibly damaging the converter. The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will flash ON and OFF
when catalytic converter overheating conditions are present and DTC P0300 is set. DTCs P0301-P0308 corresponds to cylinders 1-8. If the ECM is
able to determine that a specific cylinder is misfiring, the DTC for that cylinder will also set.

* Engine vacuum leaks
* Fuel pressure that is too low or too high-Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis (w/o FPCM) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and
Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics)Fuel System Diagnosis (FPCM) (See: Powertrain
Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics).

瀚慖f you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary.
2. Verify that there is no misfire on cylinders 1, 4, 6, or 7 due to cylinder deactivation-Refer to Cylinder Deactivation (Active Fuel
Management) System Diagnosis (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests
and General Diagnostics/Cylinder Deactivation (Active Fuel Management) System Diagnosis).
3. Ignition OFF, install the J 26792 - Tester to the spark plug wire boot of the misfiring cylinder.
Note: An erratic or weak spark is considered a no spark condition.

Circuit/System Verification
1. Verify that no other DTCs are set.
瀚慖f a DTC is set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle (See: Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions/Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) List - Vehicle).
2. Engine idling, verify there is no abnormal engine noise.
瀚慖f there is an abnormal engine noise, refer to Symptoms - Engine Mechanical (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Testing and
Inspection/Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures/Symptoms - Engine Mechanical).
3. Observe the Misfire Current Counters with a scan tool. The Misfire Current Counters should not be incrementing. Random misfires that are
not steadily incrementing may be normal.
4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify that the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle
within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Circuit/System Testing
Important: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.
1. Verify that the following conditions do not exist:
* The fuel injector wire harness electrical connectors are connected to the wrong fuel injectors. Refer to Engine Controls Schematics (See:
Diagrams/Electrical Diagrams/Powertrain Management/System Diagram).
* Engine vacuum leaks
* Fuel pressure that is too low or too high-Refer to Fuel System Diagnosis (w/o FPCM) (See: Powertrain Management/Computers and
Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics)Fuel System Diagnosis (FPCM) (See: Powertrain
Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics).
