Inspection

INSPECTION

1. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY

a. Resistance inspection.
1. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the terminals.

Resistance: 6.9 to 7.9 ohms at 20°C (68°F)

If necessary, replace the camshaft oil control valve assembly.




b. Movement inspection.
1. Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 1 and negative (-) lead to terminal 2, and check the movement of the valve.

NOTE: Confirm that the valve moves freely and does not stick in any position.

If necessary, replace the camshaft oil control valve assembly.

HINT: Accumulation of foreign objects causes subtle pressure leaks. The subtle pressure leaks will cause the cam to advance, and this will cause a DTC to be set.
