Camshaft Timing Oil Control Valve Assembly: Inspection

INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY

Check the resistance.
1. Measure the resistance between the terminals.
  Standard resistance:
  
  6.9 to 7.9 Ω at 20°C (68°F)
  
  If the result is not as specified, replace the oil control valve assembly.

VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION

Condition	Specified Condition
Battery positive (+) voltage applied	Valve moves to the left as shown In the Illustration
Battery positive (+) voltage cut off	Valve moves to the right as shown in the illustration

If the result is not as specified, replace the oil control valve.

NOTE: If the valve does not return properly because of foreign matter intrusion, a small amount of leakage in the advanced direction may occur and a DTC may be output.
