DESCRIPTION

On some vehicles, the MIL may come on with DTC P2006 stored in memory because the variable tumble shutter valve (VTSV) gets stuck causing the valve not to close enough. The clearance between the VTSV actuator and the lever is not enough for smooth movement in cold weather.

G07246772

Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.

REPAIR PROCEDURE

    CAUTION: DO NOT pry the lever out of the intake manifold.

    G07246774
    CAUTION: If the old seal on the lever is left in the intake manifold, remove it using a pick or pin, being careful not to scratch the interior walls.
  7. Disconnect the vacuum hose and electrical connector from the VTSV actuator.
  8. Before installing the new VSTV actuator, install the lever from the old actuator without the seal to confirm that it can move all the way between the stops.
    NOTE:
    • If the lever does not move all the way between the stops, remove it reinstall it at a different angle. The lever must move all the way between the stops.
    • When the lever moves between the stops, move it to the top of the range and remove it.
