Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000009267063

1.

CHECK OIL PRESSURE WARNING LAMP

1. Start engine.

2. Check oil pressure warning lamp and confirm it is not illumi-

nated.

Is oil pressure warning lamp illuminated?

YES

>> Check the engine oil level. Refer to 

LU-8, "Inspection"

.

NO

>> GO TO 2.

2.

CHECK EXHAUST VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE

Check the exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to 

EC-166, "Component Inspection"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 3.

NO

>> Replace exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to 

EM-56, "Exploded View"

.

3.

CHECK CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

Check the crankshaft position sensor. Refer to 

EC-274, "Component Inspection"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 4.

NO

>> Replace crankshaft position sensor. Refer to 

EM-94, "Exploded View"

.

4.

CHECK EXHAUST CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

Check the exhaust camshaft position sensor. Refer to 

EC-278, "Component Inspection"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 5.

NO

>> Replace exhaust camshaft position sensor. Refer to 

EM-56, "Exploded View"

.

5.

CHECK CAMSHAFT (EXHAUST)

Check the following.

ENG SPEED

Component Inspection

INFOID:0000000009267064

1.

CHECK EXHAUST VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE-I

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve harness connector.

3. Check resistance between exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve terminals as per the following.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

NO

>> Replace exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to 

EM-56, "Exploded View"

.

2.

CHECK EXHAUST VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE-II

1. Remove exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to 

EM-56, "Exploded View"

.

2. Provide 12 V DC between exhaust valve timing control solenoid

valve terminals 1 and 2, and then interrupt it. Check that the

plunger moves as shown in the figure.

CAUTION:

Do not apply 12 V DC continuously for 5 seconds or more.

Doing so may result in damage to the coil in exhaust valve

timing control solenoid valve.

NOTE:

Always replace O-ring when exhaust valve timing control

solenoid valve is removed.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> Replace exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve. Refer to
