Coil Resistance Inspection

1.  Remove the engine cover. (See ENGINE COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

2.  Remove the battery cover. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

3.  Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

4.  Remove the OCV. (See OIL CONTROL VALVE (OCV) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

5.  Measure the coil resistance between terminals A and B using a tester.

•  If not within the specification, replace the OCV.
OCV standard resistance
6.9—7.9 ohms [20°C {68°F}]

6.  Install the OCV. (See OIL CONTROL VALVE (OCV) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

7.  Connect the negative battery cable. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

8.  Install the battery cover. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

9.  Install the engine cover. (See ENGINE COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)


Spool Valve Operation Inspection

1.  Remove the engine cover. (See ENGINE COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

2.  Remove the battery cover. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

3.  Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

4.  Remove the OCV. (See OIL CONTROL VALVE (OCV) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

5.  Verify that the spool valve inside the OCV is at the position shown in the figure (position where it is pulled).

•  If it cannot be verified, replace the OCV.

6.  Verify that the battery is fully charged.

Note
•  When applying battery positive voltage between the oil control valve terminals, the connection of the negative and positive cable can be either the A or B terminal.

7.  Verify that the spool valve moves to the position shown in the figure (position where it projects) when battery positive voltage is applied between terminals A and B.

•  If it cannot be verified, replace the OCV.

8.  Stop applying battery positive voltage and verify that the spool valve returns to the original position.

•  If it cannot be verified, replace the OCV.

9.  Install the OCV. (See OIL CONTROL VALVE (OCV) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

10.  Connect the negative battery cable. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

11.  Install the battery cover. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)

12.  Install the engine cover. (See ENGINE COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [13B-MSP].)
