Official summary

This Preliminary information communicates a corrosion, coolant / engine oil contamination concern of the terminals located in the ECM connectors. This document is an aide for technicians to diagnose and locate a resistance concern associated with these terminals. This condition can set various trouble codes and illuminate the MIL, make the engine stall or have a crank no start condition.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
