Inspection

INSPECTION

INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSY

a. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

Standard: 6.9 to 7.9 Ohm at 20 °C (68 °F)

If the result is not as specified, replace the OCV assy.




b. Connect the battery's positive (+) lead 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 become stuck in any position.

If necessary, replace the OCV assy.

If the valve cannot return properly because of foreign matter, a small pressure leak in the advanced direction may occur and a DTC will be output.
