Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, inspect the crankshaft balancer bolt for the proper torque. Refer to Fastener Tightening Specifications .
  2. Remove the CMP actuator solenoid. Refer to Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve Replacement .
  3. Connect a jumper wire between the CMP actuator low reference circuit at the solenoid and a good ground. Connect a fused jumper wire to the CMP actuator high control circuit at the solenoid. Momentarily touch the fused jumper to B+. Observe the spool valve inside the CMP actuator. The spool valve should move from fully closed to fully opened position.
    • If the spool valve inside the CMP actuator solenoid does not move, replace the CMP actuator solenoid.
  4. Inspect the CMP actuator for binding or being stuck.
  5. Inspect the engine for correct valve timing. Refer to Camshaft Timing Chain, Sprocket, and Tensioner Replacement .
