On-Vehicle Inspection [04/2013 - 08/2015]: Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Lexus IS 250 and 2014 Lexus IS 250. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- INSPECT INTAKE SYSTEM
HINT:
Perform "Inspection After Repair" after repairing vacuum leaks in the intake system.
Refer to INITIALIZATION [04/2013 - 08/2015]
- INSPECT INTAKE MANIFOLD (for SCV)
- Remove the V-bank cover sub-assembly.
Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 3
- Check that the swirl control valve activation link (on the front of the intake manifold) is moving to confirm that the swirl control valve is operating.
*a Open *b Fully Closed *c Valve Opening Angle *d Engine Condition *e OFF *f Idling *g Between approximately 10° and Fully Open - - - After the engine switch is turned off, confirm that the swirl control valve opens to between approximately 10° and the fully open position.
- After the engine is started, confirm that the swirl control valve is fully closed with the engine idling.
- After the engine switch is turned off again, confirm that the swirl control valve opens to between approximately 10° and the fully open position.
- Inspection procedure when using the Techstream:
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the SCV Duty Ratio.
Powertrain > Engine > Active Test
Tester Display Control the SCV Duty Ratio NOTE:This test procedure must be completed within 10 seconds.
- Check that the swirl control valve activation link (on the front of the intake manifold) moves to the left and right.
- Inspection procedure when applying voltage between terminals:
- Disconnect the swirl control valve connector.
- Alternately apply battery voltage to terminals 1 and 2 of the swirl control valve.
- Check that the swirl control valve activation link (on the front of the intake manifold) moves to the left and right.NOTE:
Do not apply battery voltage for more than 30 seconds.
- Measure the resistance between the terminals.
Standard Resistance
1 to 19 Ω at 20°C (68°F)
If the result is not as specified, replace the intake manifold.
- Remove the V-bank cover sub-assembly.
- INSPECT FUNCTION OF AIR CLEANER FILTER ELEMENT SUB-ASSEMBLY
- Check the air cleaner filter element sub-assembly.
Standard Condition
Not excessively dirty.
If the air cleaner filter element sub-assembly is excessively dirty, replace the air cleaner filter element sub-assembly.
- Use compressed air if the air cleaner filter element sub-assembly needs to be cleaned.
- Check the air cleaner filter element sub-assembly.
- PERFORM INITIALIZATION
- Perform "Inspection After Repair" after repairing vacuum leaks in the intake system.
