Component Testing

Static Test

1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
2. Disconnect the electrical connector: X159 Inline Harness Connector
3. Test for 6 to 12 ohms between the test points:Control terminal D & Low Reference terminal E
   • If not between 6 to 12 ohms 

     Replace the component:Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve

   • If between 6 to 12 ohms 
4. Test for infinite resistance between the test points:Each terminal of the component & The component's housing
   • If less than infinite resistance 

     Replace the component:Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve

   • If infinite resistance 
5. All OK.

Dynamic Test

1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
2. Disconnect the electrical connector: X159 Inline Harness Connector
3. Connect a jumper wire between the test points:Low Reference terminal E & Ground
CAUTION:

Complete the testing as quickly as possible in order to prevent overheating and damaging the component.

5. Momentarily connect a 7.5 A fused jumper wire between the test points:Control terminal D & 12 V

   Verify the component turns On and Off when connecting and disconnecting the jumper wire:Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve

   • If the component does not turn On and Off 

     Replace the component:Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve

   • If the component turns On and Off 
6. All OK.
