Component Testing

Static Test

1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
2. Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve
3. Test for 6 to 12 ohms between the test points: Control terminal 1/A & Low Reference terminal 2/B
   • If not between 6 and 12 ohms 

     Replace the component: Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve

   • Go to next step: If between 6 and 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

   • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
5. All OK.

Dynamic Test

1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
2. Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve
3. Connect a jumper wire between the test points: Low Reference terminal 2/B & Ground
4. Momentarily connect a 7.5 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Control terminal 1/A & B+

   The component should turn On and Off when connecting and disconnecting the jumper wire. Verify the component produces a clicking sound: Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve

   • If a click cannot be heard or felt 

     Replace the component: Q6 Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve

   • Go to next step: If a click can be heard or felt 
5. All OK.
