April 5, 2026: LEMON Manuals is launched! Read the announcement.

Intake Air Control System: Inspection

INSPECT INTAKE AIR CONTROL VALVE ACTUATOR
1. Attach a vacuum pump to the actuator. Apply a vacuum of 39.9 kPa (300 mmHg, 11.8 in.Hg) and check that the diaphragm's lever moves.
2. Leave the diaphragm as is for 1 minute. Check that the vacuum pump's vacuum reading has not changed.
  If the result is not as specified, replace the actuator or IAC valve.

INSPECT VACUUM CONTROL VALVE SET
1. Attach a vacuum pump to the port A. While holding the port B closed, apply a vacuum of 66.7 kPa (500 mmHg, 20 in.Hg) and leave the diaphragm as is for 1 minute. Check that the vacuum pump's vacuum reading has not changed.

INSPECT ACIS VSV

Measure the resistance of the VSV.

Standard:

ACIS VSV RESISTANCE

Tester Connection	Specified Condition
1 - 2	33 to 39 ohms at 20°C (68°F)
1 - Body ground 2 - Body ground	10 k ohms or higher

If the result is not as specified, replace the VSV.
