- Check reset valve connector for contact resistance and oxidation according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
- Reinstall components, reconnect connectors etc.
- Ignition on.
- Start the engine.
- Increase engine speed (RPM) on the engine and read off the camshaft timing alterations.
If the camshaft timing changes it means that the cause of the fault has been loose connections in the connector.

Is the function OK?

Yes - Fault has been remedied

No - Checking component and wiring

-------------------------------------------------

Checking component and wiring
Check reset valve camshaft resistance between #1 and #2, resistance should be approximately 3.7 ohm.
