CHECK FOR ACTIVE DTC
NOTE:
If there are any 5 Volt Reference DTCs, perform the Diagnostics on those DTCs before continuing with this one.
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Using the scan tool, erase PCM DTCs.
3. Perform several ignition cycles, turning the ignition off for at least 10 seconds between each ignition cycle.
4. Using the scan tool, actuate the Intake Swirl Valve.
5. Monitor the scan tool for PCM DTCs.
  Did this DTC return?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT DTC .
CHECK THE (N118) ISV POSITION SENSOR 1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the ISV Position Sensor 1 harness connector.
3. Disconnect the PCM C2 harness connector.
4. Measure the resistance between ground and the (N118) ISV Position Sensor 1 Signal circuit at the ISV Position Sensor 1 harness connector.
  Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 3
  No
  - Repair the (N118) Intake Swirl Valve Position Sensor 1 Signal circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
CHECK THE ((N118) ISV POSITION SENSOR 1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO THE (N124) ISV POSITION SENSOR 2 RETURN CIRCUIT
1. I
2. Measure the resistance between the (N118) ISV Position Sensor 1 Signal circuit and the (N122) ISV Position Sensor 1 Return circuit at the ISV Position Sensor 1 harness connector.
  Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 4
  No
  - Repair the short between the (N118) Intake Swirl Valve Position Sensor 1 Signal circuit and the (N122) Intake Swirl Valve Position Sensor 1 Return circuit.
  - Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
INTAKE SWIRL VALVE POSITION SENSOR 1
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Replace the Intake Swirl Valve Position Sensor 1 in accordance with the service information.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, erase PCM DTCs.
5. Perform several ignition key cycles leaving the ignition on for at least 10 seconds per cycle.
6. Using the scan tool, actuate the Intake Swirl Valve.
7. With the scan tool, read PCM DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display this DTC?
  
  Yes
  - Replace the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the service information. Refer to REMOVAL .
  - Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Test complete.
  - Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
