INSPECTION

INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY

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

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

If necessary, replace the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly.

b. Movement inspection.




1. Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 1 and the 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 timing oil control valve assembly.

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