Start diagnosis
-- Remove the engine cover.
-- Disconnect Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- electrical harness connector -1-.
-- Using a multimeter, check the terminals of the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205- for resistance.
Specified value: 5.0 to 9.0 Ω (at approx. 20° C)
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Replace the Camshaft Adjustment Valve 1 -N205-. Refer to the Repair Information.
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 engine ground for voltage.
-- Switch the ignition OFF.
Specified value: Battery voltage.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Check the wiring connection for an open circuit, short circuit to Ground.
-- Check the wiring connection for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection and replace fuse if blown.
If the specified value was obtained:
Checking wiring
-- 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 terminal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) electrical harness connector T60 for an open circuit.
