        Disconnect the vacuum hose from the intake air control valve actuator.

      2. Confirm that the intake air control valve opens smoothly under vacuum and closes smoothly when the vacuum is released.

        If the intake air control valve does not close or open smoothly, replace the air cleaner assembly.

    2. Disconnect the 2 vacuum hoses from the vacuum switching valve assembly (for AICV).
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1 - 2 20°C (68°F) 37 to 44 Ω
      D27-1 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      D27-2 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      *a Component without harness connected
      (Vacuum Switching Valve Assembly (for AICV))
      *b Body Ground

      If the result is not as specified, replace the air cleaner assembly.

    4. Check the operation of the vacuum switching valve assembly (for AICV).
      1. When vacuum is applied to the port (E), check that air is sucked into the filter.

        If air is not sucked into the filter, replace the air cleaner assembly.
