Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Multimeter.
- Wiring diagram.
Test requirements
- Fuse -SB38- fuse OK.
- Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.
- All electrical consumers such as, lights and rear window defroster, switched off.
- Vehicles with automatic transmission, shift selector lever into position "P" or "N".
- A/C switched off.
- Ground connections between engine/transmission/chassis OK.
- Ignition switched off.
Test procedure
-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK .
Start diagnosis
-- Disconnect the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- electrical harness connector -3-.
-- Using a multimeter, check the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- for resistance.
Specified value: 5.0 to 8.0 Ω (at approx. 20°C)
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Replace the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205-.
If the specified value was obtained:
Checking voltage
-- Switch the ignition On.
-- Using a multimeter, Check the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- electrical harness connector terminal 1 to the Power Supply Relay (terminal 30, B+) -J317- terminal 87 for voltage.
-- Switch the ignition Off.
Specified value: Battery voltage.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Check the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- electrical harness connector terminal 1 to the Power Supply Relay (terminal 30, B+) -J317- terminal 87 for an open circuit, high resistance, short circuit to Battery (+) or Ground.
-- Check the wiring connection for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If the specified value was obtained:
Checking wiring
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
-- Install the test box.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
-- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to the Repair Information.
-- Using a multimeter, Check the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- electrical harness connector to the Engine Control Module (ECM) electrical harness connector T121 for resistance.
| Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- electrical harness connector terminal | Engine Control Module (ECM) electrical harness connector T121 terminal or test box socket |
|---|---|
| 2 | 115 |
Specified value: 1.5 Ω Max.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Check the wiring connection for an open circuit, high resistance, short circuit to Battery (+) or Ground.
-- Check the wiring connection for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If no malfunction is found in the wiring and voltage supply was not OK:
-- Erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
-- Perform a road test to verify repair.
If the DTC does not return:
Generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
If the DTC returns, no malfunction is found in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:
-- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to the Repair Information.
-- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.
Final procedures
After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
- Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
- If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
- If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
