Component Testing

Static Test

1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
2. Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: M129 Intake Camshaft Profile Actuator
3. Test for 3 to 5 ohms between the test points: Control terminal 1/6 & Ignition terminal 5
   • If not between 3 and 5 ohms 

     Replace the component: M129 Intake Camshaft Profile Actuator

   • Go to next step: If between 3 and 5 ohms 
4. All OK.

Dynamic Test

1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
2. Disconnect the electrical connector:
   • M129 Intake Camshaft Profile Actuator - All
   • M130 Exhaust Camshaft Profile Actuator - All
NOTE:

Test all of the following components one at a time: M129 & M130

3. Remove the appropriate component: M129 Intake Camshaft Profile Actuator or M130 Exhaust Camshaft Profile Actuator
4. Connect a 5 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Ignition terminal 5 & 12 V
CAUTION:

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

6. Momentarily connect a jumper wire between the test points:
   • Control terminal 1 & Ground
   • Control terminal 6 & Ground

     Verify the component turns On and Off or the fuse does not open when connecting and disconnecting the jumper wire: M129 Intake Camshaft Profile Actuator or M130 Exhaust Camshaft Profile Actuator

   • If the component does not turn On and Off or the fuse opens 

     Replace the component: M129 Intake Camshaft Profile Actuator or M130 Exhaust Camshaft Profile Actuator

   • Go to next step: If the component turns On and Off & The fuse does not open 
7. All OK.
