Static Test
- Ignition/Vehicle » Off
- Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector:Q84 Camshaft Position Actuator Park Lock Solenoid Valve
- Test for 11 to 30 Ω between the test points:Control terminal 2/B & Ignition terminal 1/A
- If not between 11 to 30 Ω
Replace the component:Q84 Camshaft Position Actuator Park Lock Solenoid Valve
- If between 11 to 30 Ω
- If not between 11 to 30 Ω
- 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:Q84 Camshaft Position Actuator Park Lock Solenoid Valve
- If infinite resistance
- If less than infinite resistance
- All OK.
Dynamic Test
- Ignition/Vehicle » Off
- Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector:Q84 Camshaft Position Actuator Park Lock Solenoid Valve
- Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points:Ignition terminal 1/A&12 V
- Momentarily connect a jumper wire between the test points:Control terminal 2/B & Ground
Verify the component turns On and Off when connecting and disconnecting the jumper wire:Q84 Camshaft Position Actuator Park Lock Solenoid Valve
- If the component does not turn On and Off
Replace the component:Q84 Camshaft Position Actuator Park Lock Solenoid Valve
- If the component turns On and Off
- If the component does not turn On and Off
