I have a lot of GM info and most of it is in html. When I try to post diagnosis charts I copy and paste it from Internet Explorer. When I paste it into the message it looks OK but when I click 'preview' or send the message, the text is OK but the tables are messed up. Sorry if I've overlooked something because I've read through much of the site but is there a way I can do this ?

Thanks. Here's an example.

Document ID# 1375976
1995 Chevrolet/Geo Blazer - 4WD

DTC P0122 Throttle Position (TP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Circuit Description The Throttle Position (TP) sensor provides a voltage signal which changes relative to the throttle blade angle. The TP sensor signal voltage varies from about 0.5 volts at idle to about 4.5 volts at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). The TP sensor signal is one of the most important inputs used by the VCM for controlling the fuel and for most of the VCM control outputs. Each time the voltage drops below 1.25 volts and stops, the VCM assumes this value as 0 throttle angle. The measures the percent throttle from this point on. The DTC is a type A DTC. Conditions for Setting the DTC The following conditions will set the DTC:

Engine running

TP sensor voltage is less than 0.15 volts Action Taken When the DTC Sets Important The scan tool will not indicate a default value. The VCM sets the DTC P0122. The VCM turns ON the MIL when DTC P0122 is reported, and 1 failure has occurred. Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC The VCM turns OFF the MIL after 3 consecutive driving trips without a fault condition present. A history DTC will clear if no fault conditions have been detected for 40 warm-up cycles (the coolant temperature has risen 22°C (40°F) from the start-up coolant temperature and the engine coolant temperature exceeds 71°C (160°F) during that same ignition cycle) or the scan tool clearing feature has been used. Diagnostic Aids The scan tool reads the throttle position in volts. The TP should read about 0.45 to 0.85 volts with the throttle closed and the ignition ON or at idle. The voltage should increase at a steady rate as the throttle is moved toward Wide Open Throttle (WOT). An open or short to ground in the 5 volt reference circuit or the TP sensor signal circuit results in a DTC P0122. Refer to Intermittent Conditions . Scan the TP sensor signal while depressing the accelerator pedal with the engine stopped and the ignition ON. The display should vary from below 1.25 volts (1250 mV) when the throttle is closed, to over 4.5 volts (4500 mV) when the throttle is held at the Wide Open Throttle (WOT) position. Test Description The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

If the TP signal measures less than 0.15 volt, then the fault exists. This test simulates the DTC P0123 (high voltage). If the VCM recognizes the high signal voltage, the VCM and the wiring are okay. This test simulates a high signal voltage in order to check for an open in the TP signal circuit. This step checks the 5 volt reference circuit for an open, short to ground, or a poor connection, or a faulty VCM. The VCM terminals GR12 and GR27 are spliced together inside the VCM. When checking the 5 volt reference for a short to ground, both the 5 volt reference circuits and all the components on the 5 volt reference circuits must also be checked. Step Action Value(s) Yes No Schematic Reference: Engine Controls Schematics 1 Important Before clearing the DTCs use the scan tool to record the Freeze Frame and the Failure Records data. This data will be lost when the Clear Info function is used. Was the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check performed? -- Go to Step 2 Go to Powertrain On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check 2

Connect the scan tool. Close the throttle. Does the scan tool display a throttle position signal less than the specified value? 0.15 V Go to Step 3 Go to Step 5 3

Disconnect the TP sensor. Jumper the TP sensor signal circuit and the TP sensor 5 volt reference circuit together. Does the scan tool display a throttle position signal greater than the specified value? 4.0 V Go to Step 12

im not seeing what is wring with that. let me get home (in about 45 min) and if you are on, send me an actual example before pasting. ok.

The first part is just text. Everything after " Step Action Value(s) Yes No" is supposed to look like the link I just posted. I tried uploading the whole htm file but it says 'htm not supported'. Got your private message but I don't have IM or anything. Thanks for the help. Got to get off of here for now so I'll try to get back to it later.
