DTC (PGM-FI)

1. Oil level check

   - 1. Check the engine oil level.

   Is the level OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 2.

   NO 

   Adjust the engine oil to the proper level .

2. Problem verification

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   - 2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

   - 3. Select the VTEC+VCM TEST in the INSPECTION MENU with the HDS, then select the CDVEB TEST with the HDS.

   CDVEB TEST

   Does the HDS indicate Normal?

   YES 

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.

   Check for poor connections or loose terminals at rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) and the PCM.

   If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the Fuel and Emissions Systems .

   NO 

   The failure is duplicated. Go to step 3.

3. Shorted wire check (VCMSW line)

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.

   - 3. Disconnect the following connector.

   PCM connector C (51P)

   - 4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	PCM connector C (51P): disconnected
   Test point 1	PCM connector C (51P) No. 34 - Refer to: PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs (9-Speed A/T) (2016 2017 2018), or PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs (6-Speed A/T)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   Go to step 5.

   NO 

   Go to step 4.

4. VCM system oil pressure check

   - 1. Remove rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) (A), and attach the special tools as shown, then attach rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) to the oil pressure gauge adapter (B).

   - 2. Reconnect the following connector.

   PCM connector C (51P)

   - 3. Exit the SCS mode with the HDS.

   - 4. Start the engine.

   - 5. Select the VTEC+VCM TEST in the INSPECTION MENU with the HDS, then select the CDVEB TEST with the HDS.

   CDVEB TEST

   Check the oil pressure.

   Is the oil pressure 45 kPa (0.46 kgf/cm 2, 6.5 psi) or more?

   YES 

   Replace the rear rocker arm oil control valve (rocker arm oil control solenoid B (Bank 1)) - Refer to: Rear Rocker Arm Oil Control Valve Removal and Installation .

   NO 

   Inspect the VCM system oil passage. If it is OK, replace the rear rocker arm oil control valve - Refer to: Rear Rocker Arm Oil Control Valve Removal and Installation .

5. Rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) internal circuit check

   - 1. Disconnect the following connector.

   Rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) 1P connector

   - 2. At the rocker arm oil pressure switch side, check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	PCM connector C (51P): disconnected
   	Rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) 1P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	Rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) 1P connector No. 1 (rocker arm oil pressure switch side)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   Replace rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1) - Refer to: Rocker Arm Oil Pressure Switch A (Bank 1) and Rocker Arm Oil Pressure Switch B (Bank 1) Removal and Installation .

   NO 

   Repair a short in the VCMSW wire between the PCM (C34) and rocker arm oil pressure switch B (Bank 1).
