.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Power to the intake manifold tuning solenoid

power is supplied from the MFI relay (terminal
No. 1).

• The PCM controls ground intake manifold tuning

solenoid by turning the power transistor in the
PCM "ON" and "OFF".

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• To judge if there is open circuit in the intake man-

ifold tuning solenoid drive circuit, PCM measures
the surge voltage of the intake manifold tuning
solenoid coil.

• The PCM drives the intake manifold tuning sole-

noid. After the solenoid is turned off, the PCM
will check if the solenoid coil produces a surge
voltage of 2 V or more.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions

• Engine is being cranked.

• Battery positive voltage is at between 10 and 16

volts.

Judgment Criteria

• The intake manifold tuning solenoid coil surge

voltage (battery positive voltage + 2 volts) is not
detected for 0.2 second.

• The PCM monitors for this condition once during

the drive cycle.

Check Conditions

• Battery positive voltage is at between 10 and 16

volts.

• Intake manifold tuning solenoid is ON.

• More than 1 second has elapsed after the above

mentioned conditions have been met.

Judgment Criteria

• The intake manifold tuning solenoid coil surge

voltage (battery positive voltage + 2 volts) is not
detected for 1 second. When the intake manifold
tuning solenoid is turned OFF.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this code to be set are: )

• Intake manifold tuning solenoid failed.

• Open or shorted intake manifold tuning solenoid

circuit, or loose connector.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991502, check actuator test
item 11: Variable Induction control Solenoid.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991502 to the actuator test mode for item

11, Intake manifold tuning solenoid.

• An operation sound should be heard and vibration

should be felt when the intake manifold tuning solenoid
is operated.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the solenoid operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/
Inspection Service Points

P.00-6

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check connector B-04 at the intake manifold
tuning solenoid for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 3. Check the intake manifold tuning solenoid.
(1) Disconnect the intake manifold tuning solenoid connector

B-04.

(2) Measure the resistance between intake manifold tuning

solenoid side connector terminal No. 1 and No. 2.

Standard value: 29

− 35 ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the resistance between 29 and 35 ohms [at 20

°C

(68

°F)]?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the intake manifold tuning solenoid. Then go

to Step 12.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at intake
manifold tuning solenoid harness side connector B-04.
(1) Disconnect the connector B-04 and measure at the harness

side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 1 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 5.
