Crank engine and check for slight A/C voltage at ICM harness terminals No. 5 and 6. See Figure . If A/C voltage is not pulsing greater than one volt, check VRS circuits for opens or shorts If no problems are found, replace VRS sensor. If A/C voltage pulses greater than one volt, go to CHECK VBAT OPEN TO COIL.
