  1. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY

    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection

      Condition

      Specified Condition

      1 - 2

      20°C (68°F)

      6.9 to 7.9 Ω

      *a

      Component without harness connected

      (Camshaft Timing Oil Control Valve)

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

      OK

      Condition

      Specified Condition

      Battery positive (+) voltage is applied

      Valve moves in left arrow direction shown in the illustration

      Battery positive (+) voltage is cut off

      Valve moves in right arrow direction shown in the illustration

      If the result is not as specified, replace the camshaft timing 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 stored.
