On-Vehicle Inspection

  1. CHECK CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE 
    1. Remove the V-bank cover sub-assembly. Refer to REMOVAL - Step 2 .
    2. Disconnect the 2 fuel delivery pipe connectors.

      HINT: 

      • To release each connector lock, push the claw downward ("Release" in the illustration) and move the lock lever ("Move" in the illustration).
      • Perform this step to prevent the engine from starting.
    4. Remove the engine room ECU cover See step  5.
    5. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

      HINT: 

      Do not start the engine.

    6. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      E3-18 (VC) - E4-32 (G2-) Engine switch on (IG) 5 V
    7. While turning the crankshaft pulley by hand, measure the voltage between each terminal. Check that the voltage changes between the Hi range and Lo range shown in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      E4-24 (G2+) - E4-32 (G2-) Engine switch on (IG) 3.75 to 4.50 V (Voltage (Hi))
      0.50 to 1.25 V (Voltage (Lo))
  2. CHECK VVT SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE 
    1. Remove the V-bank cover sub-assembly. Refer to REMOVAL - Step 2 .
    2. Disconnect the 2 fuel delivery pipe connectors.
