DTC Diagnosis Procedure

  1. CHECK EXHAUST VALVE TIMING CONTROL POSITION SENSOR POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-I 
    1. Disconnect exhaust valve timing (EVT) control position sensor harness connector.
    2. Turn ignition switch ON.
    3. Check the voltage between exhaust valve timing control position sensor harness connector and ground.
