Test procedure
-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK
Start diagnosis
-- Remove the engine cover with air filter. Refer to Repair information.
-- Disconnect the Intake Flap Motor -V157- /Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- electrical harness connector -arrow-.
-- Switch the ignition on.
-- Using a Multimeter, check the Intake Flap Motor -V157- /Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- electrical harness connector terminals 1 to 3 for voltage.
Specified value: about 5 V
-- Switch ignition off.
If the specified value was obtained:
-- Replace the Intake Flap Motor - V157- /Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-. Refer to Repair information.
If the specified value was not obtained:
Checking wiring
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
-- Install the test box. Refer to Repair information.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
-- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220-. Refer to Repair information.
-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Intake Flap Motor - V157- /Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336- electrical harness connector terminals to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220- electrical harness connector T60 terminals for an open circuit.

Specified value: 1.5 Ω Max.
If the specification was not obtained:
-- Check the wiring for a short circuit to each other, Battery (+), and Ground (GND).
-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If no malfunction is detected in the wiring:
-- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220-. Refer to Repair information.
-- Install the engine cover with air filter. Refer to Repair information.
Final procedures
After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
- Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
- If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
- If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
