Intake Manifold Tuning Valve Position Sensor, Checking

Intake Manifold Tuning Valve Position Sensor, Checking

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

• Multimeter.

• Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

• The Engine Control Module (ECM) ( J623) fuses OK.

• The parking brake engaged.

• The battery voltage at least 12.5 V.

• The selector lever of automatic transmission in position "P" or " N".

• All electrical consumers switched off (radiator fan must NOT run during test).

• A/C switched off.

• The fuel tank at least 1/4 filled.

• The ignition switched off.

Test procedure

- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ General Diagnosis ] General Diagnosis.

Start diagnosis

- Remove the front engine cover - arrows -.





Checking voltage supply

- Disconnect the Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) Valve Position Sensor (G513) electrical harness connector - 3 -.





Switch the ignition on.

- Using a Multimeter, check the Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) Valve Position Sensor (G513) electrical harness connector for voltage.









Switch the ignition off.

If the specified values are obtained:

- Replace the Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) Valve Position Sensor (G513).

If specified values are not obtained:

Checking wiring

If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.

- Install the test box. Refer to Fuel Injection and Ignition Repair Information.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.

- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ). Refer to => [ ECM, Removing and Installing ] ECM, Removing and Installing.

- Using a multimeter, check the Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) Valve Position Sensor (G513) electrical harness connector terminals to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector T94 terminals for an open circuit.





Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.

If the specification was not obtained:

- Check the wiring for a short circuit to each other, Battery (+), and Ground (GND).

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is detected in the wiring:

- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ). Refer to => [ ECM, Removing and Installing ] ECM, Removing and Installing.

- Install the front engine cover - arrows -.





Final procedures

After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. => [ Readiness Code ] Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.

- End of diagnosis.
