Detection Condition
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
PCM monitors Variable Intake-air System (VIS) control solenoid valve control signal at PCM 30-pin harness connector terminal "4R". If PCM turns VIS control solenoid valve off, but voltage at PCM 30-pin harness connector terminal "4R" still remains low, PCM determines that VIS control solenoid valve circuit has malfunction.
