      Voltage: Battery voltage 

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO  5 .
    2. NG: GO TO 4.
  4. DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART 

    Check the following.

    • Harness connectors E1, M1
    • Harness connectors M33, F22
    • Harness for open or short between swirl control valve control solenoid valve and ECM relay
    1. Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness connectors.
  5. CHECK SWIRL CONTROL VALVE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE OUTPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT 
    1. Turn ignition switch "OFF".
    2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    3. Check harness continuity between ECM terminal 27 and swirl control valve control solenoid valve terminal 2. Refer to WIRING DIAGRAM  .

      Continuity should exist. 

    4. Also, check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO 6.
    2. NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness connectors.
  6. CHECK HOSES 

    Check hoses and tubes between air cleaner and swirl control valve vacuum check switch for clogging or improper connection.

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO 7.
    2. NG: Repair hoses or tubes.
  7. CHECK SWIRL CONTROL VALVE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 

    With CONSULT-II 

    1. Reconnect the disconnected harness connectors.
    2. Start engine and let it idle.
    3. Remove vacuum hose connected to swirl control valve actuator.
    4. Select "SWIRL CONT SOL/V" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT-II.
    5. Touch "ON" and "OFF" on CONSULT-II screen.
    6. Check vacuum existence and operation delay time under the following conditions.

      Operation takes less than 1 second. 

    Without CONSULT-II 

    1. Reconnect ECM harness connector.
    2. Remove vacuum hose connected to swirl control valve actuator.
    3. Start engine and let it idle.
    4. Apply 12V of direct current between swirl control valve control solenoid valve terminals 1 and 2.
    5. Check vacuum existence and operation delay time under the following conditions.
