NOTE: The wavelength becomes shorter as the engine rpm increases.

HINT:

  1. INSPECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR 
    1. Disconnect the C1 sensor connector.
    2. Measure the resistance of the sensor.

      Standard resistance 

      TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1 - 2 Cold 835 to 1,400 Ω
      1 - 2 Hot 1,600 to 1,645 Ω
      NOTE: In the above section, the terms "Cold" and "Hot" refer to the temperature of the sensor. "Cold" means approximately -10 to 50°C (14 to 212°F). "Hot" means approximately 50 to 100°C (122 to 212°F).

    NG: REPLACE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the C1 camshaft position sensor connector.
    2. Disconnect the E2 ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

      Standard resistance 

      TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      C1-1 - E2-21 (G2) Below 1 Ω
      C1-2 - E2-20 (G2-) Below 1 Ω
      C1-1 or E2-21 (G2) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher
      C1-2 or E2-20 (G2-) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK SENSOR INSTALLATION 
    1. Check the sensor installation.

      OK: 

      Sensor is installed correctly. 

    NG: SECURELY REINSTALL SENSOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK VALVE TIMING 
    1. Remove the engine cover.
    2. Remove the drive belt.
    3. Remove the timing belt cover LH and RH.
    4. Turn the crankshaft to align the matchmarks of the crankshaft.
    5. Align the notch of the crankshaft pulley with the "0" position.

    6. Confirm whether the matchmarks of the camshaft pulley and cylinder head cover are facing each other.
    7. If the matchmarks are not facing each other, turn the crankshaft clockwise by 360°. Confirm again if the matchmarks are facing each other.

      OK: 

      The matchmarks of the camshaft pulley and the cylinder head cover face each other when the notch of the crankshaft pulley is in the "0" position. 

    NG: ADJUST VALVE TIMING 

    OK: REPLACE ECM
