Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-, Checking: Notes

General Description

The Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- provides the Engine/Motor Control Module -J623- with the position of the intake manifold runner flaps. The Engine/Motor Control Module -J623- can then use actuators to adjust these flaps to be open or closed in order to provide longer or shorter intake runners depending on the ambient conditions available at the time; plus, depending on the specific engine speed, to increase engine efficiency.

Test Procedure

Step	Procedure	Result / Action to Take
1	PERFORM: Preliminary Check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK . -- Was Complaint verified?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 2 Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-, CHECKING - 2 . -- NO: GATHER more information from customer about the complaint.
2	IGNITION: OFF. DISCONNECT: Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- harness connector. IGNITION: ON. CHECK: Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- harness connector terminals 1 to 3 for voltage. IGNITION: OFF. SPECIFIED VALUE: About 5.0 V. -- Was Value obtained?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 3 Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-, CHECKING - 3 . -- NO: GO TO: Step 4 Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-, CHECKING - 4 .
3	REMOVE: Engine/Motor Control Module -J623-. Refer to appropriate service information. CHECK: Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- harness connector terminal 2 to the Engine/Motor Control Module -J623- harness connector T60 / 22 for resistance. SPECIFIED VALUE: 0.5 Ω (± 0.3 Ω). -- Was Value obtained?	-- YES: REPLACE: Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336-. Refer to appropriate service information. GO TO: Step 5 Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-, CHECKING - 5 . -- NO: PERFORM: Visual Inspection of wiring and component. CHECK: Wiring for open, high resistance, short or harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals. REPAIR: Faulty wiring or connector. GO TO: Step 5 Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-, CHECKING - 5 .
4	REMOVE: Engine/Motor Control Module -J623-. Refer to appropriate service information. CHECK: Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- harness connector terminal 1 to the Engine/Motor Control Module -J623- harness connector T60 / 26 for resistance. CHECK: Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- harness connector terminal 3 to the Engine/Motor Control Module -J623- harness connector T60 / 14 for resistance. SPECIFIED VALUE: 0.5 Ω (± 0.3 Ω). -- Were Values obtained?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 5 Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor - G336-, CHECKING - 5 . -- NO: PERFORM: Visual Inspection of wiring and component. CHECK: Wiring for open, high resistance, short or harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals. REPAIR: Faulty wiring or connector.
