Variable Valve Timing Actuator: Testing and Inspection

INSPECTION

1. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY







a. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

Standard resistance: 6.9 to 7.9 Ohms at 20 degrees C (68 degrees F)
If the result is not as specified, replace the oil control valve assembly.




b. Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to terminal 1 and negative (-) lead to terminal 2, and check the movement of the valve.

If the result is not as specified, replace the oil control valve assembly. If the valve cannot return properly because of foreign matter, a small pressure leak in the advanced direction may occur and a DTC may be output.
