Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate Q6 camshaft position actuator solenoid valve.
    NOTE: A test lamp must be used for this test. The control circuit is pulled-up to a low current voltage. The current is too low to illuminate a test lamp. A voltage on the control circuit is normal.
  2. Service Mode active, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the control circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  3. Ignition OFF, all vehicles systems OFF. It may take up to for 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  4. Connect the DMM negative lead to the control circuit terminal 2. Connect the DMM positive lead to B+. Set the DMM on the diode setting. Command the CMP Actuator Solenoid Valve ON and OFF with a scan tool. The DMM should transition from OL when commanded OFF to less than 1 V when commanded ON.
    • If the circuit voltage does not correspond to the specified values, test the control circuit for an open/high resistance or a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  5. If all circuits/connections test normal, test or replace the Q6 camshaft position actuator solenoid valve.
