Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the vacuum hose at the vacuum actuator.
  2. Connect a J 23738-A  to the port of the vacuum actuator. Apply 51 kPa (15 Hg) of vacuum to the vacuum actuator. Verify the vacuum actuator moves, and that the vacuum remains steady.
    • If the vacuum actuator does not move, replace the vacuum actuator.
    • If the vacuum decreases, replace the vacuum actuator.
  3. Disconnect the harness connector of the IMT valve solenoid.
  4. Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the ignition 1 voltage circuit and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the ignition 1 voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. Replace the fuse, if necessary.
  5. Ignition OFF, connect a test lamp between the control circuit and the ignition 1 voltage circuit.
  6. Ignition ON, command the IMT valve solenoid ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON when the solenoid is commanded OFF, and OFF when the solenoid is commanded ON.
    • If the test lamp remains ON all the time, test for a short to ground on the control circuit. If circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
    • If the test lamp remains OFF all the time, test for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance on the control circuit. If circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
  7. Connect the vacuum hose to the vacuum actuator.
  8. Connect the harness connector of the IMT valve solenoid.
  9. Disconnect the vacuum supply hose from the intake manifold.
    10. IMPORTANT: The vacuum displayed on the J 23738-A  should decrease after engine start, and then stabilize.
  10. Connect a J 23738-A  to the vacuum supply hose. Apply 51 kPa (15 Hg) of vacuum to the vacuum supply hose. Engine idling, verify that the vacuum decreases.
    • If the vacuum does not decrease, repair the restriction, or replace the IMT valve solenoid.
  11. Engine idling, monitor the vacuum display. Verify that the vacuum stabilizes and remains steady.
    • If the vacuum decreases, repair the vacuum leak.
