DTC Troubleshooting
Step Action Yes No
1
Was “Engine and Emission Control System Check” performed?
Go to Step 2.
2
VDOP solenoid valve power supply circuit check
1)Set ignition “OFF” and disconnect VDOP solenoid valve connector.
2)Check for proper terminal connection to VDOP solenoid valve connector.
3)If connections are OK, set ignition “ON”.
4)Check that voltage between “A1” circuit and ground is battery voltage.
Is check result OK?
Go to Step 3.
Repair or replace defective wire harness.
3
VDOP solenoid valve drive circuit check
1)Set ignition “OFF” and disconnect “E01” connector from ECM.
2)Check for proper terminal connection to “E01” connector.
3)If connections are OK, check the following points.
•Resistance of “A2” circuit: less than 1 Ω
•Resistance between “A2” and ground: infinity
•Resistance between “A2” circuit terminal and other terminal at VDOP solenoid valve connector: infinity
•Voltage of “A2” circuit: approx. 0 V (When ignition is “ON”)
Is check result OK?
Go to Step 4.
Repair or replace defective wire harness.
