Diagnosis Procedure

  1. CHECK INTAKE MANIFOLD RUNNER CONTROL VALVE POSITION SENSOR POWER SUPPLY 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect intake valve manifold runner control valve position sensor harness connector.
    3. Turn ignition switch ON.
    4. Check the voltage between intake valve manifold runner control valve position sensor harness connector.
    Intake manifold runner control valve position sensor Voltage (Approx.)
    Connector + -
    Terminal
    F29 1 3 5 V

    Is the inspection result normal? 

    YES: GO TO  6.

    NO: GO TO 2.

  2. CHECK INTAKE MANIFOLD RUNNER CONTROL VALVE POSITION SENSOR POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT 

    Check the voltage between intake valve manifold runner control valve position sensor harness connector and ground.

    + - Voltage (Approx.)

    Is the inspection result normal? 

    YES: GO TO  4.

    NO: GO TO 3.

  3. CHECK SENSOR POWER SUPPLY 2 CIRCUIT 

    Check sensor power supply 2 circuit. Refer to "DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE ".

    Is inspection result normal? 

    YES: Perform the trouble diagnosis for power supply circuit.

    NO: Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  4. CHECK ECM GROUND CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    3. Check the continuity between ECM harness connector and ground.

    2. Also check harness for short to ground and to power.

      Is the inspection result normal? 

      YES: GO TO 7.

      NO: Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  7. CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT 

    Perform "INTERMITTENT INCIDENT ".

    Is the inspection result normal? 

    YES: Replace intake manifold assembly. Refer to "EXPLODED VIEW ".

    NO: Repair or replace error-detected parts.
