Is resistance within specification?
YES
- Go to next Inspection procedure
NO
- Check oil control valve for contamination, deterioration, or damage. Substitute with a known-good solenoid and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace solenoid and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure
