Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Magnet harness connector X109.
    2. NOTE:

    Testing for steps 2-4 is performed on the ECM side of the harness connector X109.

  2. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal E and ground.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
    3. NOTE:

    A test lamp must be used for this test. The control circuit is pulled-up to a low current voltage, B+ on the control circuit is normal.

  3. Ignition ON, engine OFF, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the control circuit terminal D and ground.
    • If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  4. Connect the DMM black lead to the control circuit terminal D. Connect the DMM red lead to B+. Set the DMM on the diode setting. Command the CMP actuator solenoid ON and OFF with a scan tool. The DMM should transition from OL when commanded OFF to less than 1 V when commanded ON.
    • If the circuit voltage does not correspond to the specified values, test the control circuit for an open/high resistance or a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
    5. NOTE:

    Testing for steps 5 and 6 is performed on the engine side of the harness connector X109.

  5. Ignition OFF, test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal D and ground.
    • If not the specified value, repair the control circuit for a short to ground.
  6. Test for 5.0-9.0 Ω between the control circuit terminal D and the low reference circuit terminal E.
    • If less than the specified range, test for a short between the control circuit and the low reference circuit. If the circuits/connections test normal, test or replace the Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Magnet.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit and the low reference for an open/high resistance. If the circuits/connections test normal, test or replace the Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Magnet.
  7. If all circuits test normal, repair the poor connection at the camshaft position sensor jumper wire harness.
