Test requirements 

Function

Control Valve operation occurs via an electric motor Control Flap Adjustment Motor -V380-, Control Valve Position Sensor -G584-, and Control Valve Control Module -J808-.

The Control Valve Control Module -J808- cannot be serviced separately and must be serviced as a unit.

Checking resistance 

-- Using a multimeter, check the Control Valve Position Sensor -G584- at the Control Valve Control Module -J808- terminals 2 to 3 for resistance.

Specified value: 2.0 to 5.0 Ω (at 20° C)

If the specified value was Not obtained:

-- Replace the Control Valve Control Module -J808-. Refer to appropriate Service Information.

-- Go to Final procedures.

If the specified value was obtained:

-- Check the voltage supply of the Control Valve Control Module -J808- to the Engine Control Module -J623-.

Checking voltage supply and wiring 

-- Switch the ignition ON.

-- Using a Multimeter, check the Control Valve Control Module -J808- at the electrical harness connector terminals 1 to 3 for voltage.

Specified value: at least 4.5 V

-- Switch the ignition OFF.

Continue test according to the following table:

Value Cause Test
If the specified value was not obtained: Open or shorted circuit CONTROL VALVE CONTROL MODULE, CHECKING => Checking wiring 
If the specified value was obtained: Check reference signal circuit CONTROL VALVE CONTROL MODULE, CHECKING => Checking wiring
