5. Check the result of step 4.
- VTECS witch Failure
- VTECS witch Open
- VTECS witch SIG Line Open
- VTECS witch GND Line Open
Is the test result one of the above?
YES - Go to step 6.
NO - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch).If it is OK, replace the rocker arm oil control solenoid (VTEC solenoid valve), then Go to step 14.
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Disconnect the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) 2P connector.

Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 9.
NO - Replace the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch), then Go to step 13.
9. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
10. Measure voltage between rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) 2P connector terminal No. 1 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Repair open in the wire between the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) and G101, then Go to step 13.
NO - Go to step 11.
11. Measure voltage between PCM connector terminal A23 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Repair open in the wire between the PCM (A23) and the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch), then Go to step 12.
NO - Go to step 19.
12. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
13. Reconnect the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) 2P connector.
14. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
15. Reset the PCM with the HDS.
16. Do the PCM idle learn procedure.
17. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P2647 indicated?
YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) and the PCM, then Go to step 1.
NO - Go to step 18.
18. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2647 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES - Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs were indicated in step 17, Go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
NO - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) and the PCM, then Go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
19. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known good PCM.
20. Do the VTEC TEST in the INSPECTION MENU with the HDS.
21. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P2647 indicated?
YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known good PCM, then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, Go to step 1.
NO - Go to step 22.
22. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2647 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES - If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs were indicated in step 21, Go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
NO - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure switch (VTEC oil pressure switch) and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known good PCM, then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, Go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
