Intake Flap Motor -V157- AND Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336-, CHECKING

Observe all safety precautions: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 

View clean working conditions: CLEAN WORKING CONDITIONS 

Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing any component with gold-plated electrical harness connector terminals.

For wiring diagrams, component locations, and connector views, Refer to the applicable wiring diagram.

NOTE:

The Intake Manifold Flap Motor and Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor are combined and must be replaced as a unit.

Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing terminals in the electrical harness connector of the Intake Flap Motor -V157/G336-.

Special tools and workshop equipment required 

Test requirements

Test procedure

-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK 

Start diagnosis

Make sure the engine is at room temperature.

-- Disconnect the malfunctioning sensor Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- electrical harness connector.

-- Switch the ignition ON.

-- Using a Multimeter, Check the Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- / Intake Flap Motor -V157- electrical harness connector terminals 1 to 3 for voltage.

Specified value: about 5.0 V

-- Switch the ignition Off.

Continue test according to the following table:

Value Cause Test
If the specified value was not obtained: Open or shorted circuit Refer to Intake Flap Motor -V157- AND Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336-, CHECKING => 
If the specified value was obtained: Check reference signal circuit Refer to Intake Flap Motor -V157- AND Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336-, CHECKING => 

Checking wiring

-- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to the Repair Information.

-- Using a multimeter, Check the Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor -G336- / Intake Flap Motor -V157- electrical harness connector to the Engine Control Module (ECM) - J623 - electrical harness connector T60 for an open circuit.

Final procedures

-- Install the engine cover. Refer to the Repair Information.

After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:

  1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
  2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
  3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
