Inspection steps

NOTE:
  • Read the freeze frame data using the SSM3. A part of the engine running conditions under which the engine trouble occurred is recorded in the freeze frame data, which is useful for troubleshooting.
  • Bank 1 shows the side where No. 1 cylinder is located.
  • Bank 2 shows the side where No. 2 cylinder is located.
  1. Clear DTC
    1. Connect the SSM3 to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Turn on the SSM3.
    4. Follow the SSM3 on-screen instructions to clear the DTCs. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC )

      Next

  2. Read DTC
    1. Connect the SSM3 to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Turn on the SSM3.
    4. Follow the SSM3 on-screen instructions to check the DTC. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC )

      Result

      Result Go to
      P0010 or P0020 is output. A
      No DTC is output. B

      B: Inspection for problems that do not normally occur (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC )

      A: Go to next step

  3. Camshaft timing oil control valve assembly unit inspection (intake side)
    1. Perform a unit inspection of camshaft timing oil control valve assembly. (Refer to UNIT INSPECTION )

      NG: Replacement of cam timing oil control valve assembly (intake side) (Refer to REMOVAL )

      OK: Go to next step

  4. Check wiring harness and connector (camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (intake side) power supply circuit)
    NOTE: For the inspection procedure and precautions for wiring harnesses and connectors, refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AND HOW TO PERFORM .
    1. Disconnect camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (intake side) connector.
    2. Measure the voltage between the terminals.
