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.
- Clear DTC
- Connect the SSM3 to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn on the SSM3.
- Follow the SSM3 on-screen instructions to clear the DTCs. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC
)
Next
- Read DTC
- Connect the SSM3 to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn on the SSM3.
- Follow the SSM3 on-screen instructions to check the DTC. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC
)
Result
Result Go to P0013 or P0023 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
- Camshaft timing oil control valve assembly unit inspection (exhaust side)
- Perform a unit inspection of camshaft timing oil control valve assembly. (Refer to UNIT INSPECTION
)
NG: Replacement of cam timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust side) (Refer to REMOVAL )
OK: Go to next step
- Perform a unit inspection of camshaft timing oil control valve assembly. (Refer to UNIT INSPECTION
)
- Check wiring harness and connector (camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust 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 .
- Disconnect camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust side) connector.
- Measure the voltage between the terminals.
