On-Vehicle Inspection
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION1. INSPECTION THROTTLE BODY
a. Inspect the throttle control motor for operating sound.
1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. When turning the accelerator pedal position sensor lever, check the running sound of the motor. The motor should be running smoothly without friction sounds.
If operation is not as specified, check the throttle control motor, wiring and ECM.
b. Inspect the throttle position sensor.
1. Connect the hand-held tester (with CAN VIM) to the DLC3.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
3. Check that the MIL does not light up.
4. Check that, under the CURRENT DATA, THROTTLE POS (throttle valve opening percentage)is within the standard value.
Standard throttle valve opening percentage: 60 % or more
If operation is not as specified, check the throttle position sensor, wiring and ECM.
2. INSPECT ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR
a. When turning ignition switch ON, check that the voltage of the accelerator pedal position sensor of the CURRENT DATA is within the standard in value.
Standard: 0.6 to 1.0 V
If the result is not as specified, replace the accelerator pedal position sensor.
3. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY
a. Connect the hand-held tester (with CAN VIM) to the DLC3.
b. Turn the ignition switch ON.
c. Start and warm up the engine.
d. Connect the hand-held tester and select VVT from the ACTIVE TEST menu.
e. Check the engine speed when the OCV is operated by the hand-held tester.
