DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART

Check the following.

• Harness connectors E2, F32

• Harness for open or short between VIAS control solenoid valve and IPDM E/R

• Harness for open or short between VIAS control solenoid valve and ECM

>> Repair harness or connectors.

8.

CHECK VIAS 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 29 and VIAS control solenoid valve terminal 2.

Refer to Wiring Diagram.

4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG

OK

>> GO TO 9.

NG

>> Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

9.

CHECK VIAS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE

Refer to

EC-1371, "Component Inspection"

.

OK or NG

OK

>> GO TO 10.

NG

>> Replace VIAS control solenoid valve. Refer to

EM-142, "Exploded View"

.
