Using The M-MDS
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
- Warm up the engine.
- Using the simulation function [VLV_TIMING_DSD_EX], verify that the engine speed fluctuates when the OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system duty value is 100%. (See SIMULATION INSPECTION .) If the engine speed fluctuates, verify the condition of the timing chain assembly (valve timing). If the engine speed does not fluctuate, perform the following inspections.
- OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system coil resistance inspection and spool valve operation inspection. (See COIL RESISTANCE INSPECTION .) (See Spool valve operation inspection .)
- Inspect the following wiring harnesses and connectors between the OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system and PCM for an open and short circuit.
- Between OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system terminal A and PCM terminal 1CO
- Between OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system terminal B and F12 15A fuse, and F12 15A fuse and main relay terminal C
- Inspect the oil passage for clogging and leakage.
Oil passage
- Between engine oil solenoid valve and OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system
- Between OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system and camshaft
- Oil passage inside camshaft
- If the inspection items are normal, replace the hydraulic variable valve timing actuator. (See ELECTRIC VARIABLE VALVE TIMING MOTOR/DRIVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
Without Using the M-MDS
- Disconnect the OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system connector.
- Start the engine and idle it.NOTE:
- When applying battery voltage between the OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system terminals, the positive and negative cables can be connected to either terminal A or B.
- Verify that the engine idles roughly or stalls when battery voltage is applied between OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system terminals A and B.
If the engine idles roughly or stalls, verify the condition of the timing chain assembly (valve timing). engine does not idle roughly or stall, perform the following inspections.
- OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system coil resistance inspection and spool valve op inspection (See COIL RESISTANCE INSPECTION .) (See Spool valve operation inspection .)
- Inspect the following wiring harnesses and connectors between the OCV for hydraulic variab valve timing system and PCM for an open and short circuit.
- Between OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system terminal A and PCM terminal 1CO
- Between OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system terminal B and F12 15A fuse, and F1 fuse and main relay terminal C
- Inspect the oil passage for clogging and leakage.
Oil passage
- Between engine oil solenoid valve and OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system
- Between OCV for hydraulic variable valve timing system and camshaft
- Oil passage inside camshaft
- If the inspection items are normal, replace the hydraulic variable valve timing actuator. (See ELECTRIC VARIABLE VALVE TIMING MOTOR/DRIVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
