WIRING DIAGRAM

10AF1: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.

1. Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect connector from camshaft position sensor.

Connector & Terminal - [(E15) No.1 - Engine Ground]:




3. Measure resistance of harness between camshaft position sensor connector and engine ground.

CHECK: Is the resistance more than 100 Ohms?

YES: Repair harness and connector.

NOTE: In this case, repair the following:
- Open circuit in harness between camshaft position sensor and ECM connector
- Poor contact in ECM connector
- Poor contact in coupling connector (B21)

NO: Go to step 10AF2.

10AF2: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.

Connector & Terminal - [(E15) No.1 - Engine Ground]:




Measure resistance of harness between camshaft position sensor connector and engine ground.

CHECK: Is the resistance less than 10 Ohms?

YES: Repair ground short circuit in harness between camshaft position sensor and ECM connector.

NOTE: The harness between both connectors are shielded. Repair ground short circuit in harness together with shield.

NO: Go to step 10AF3.

10AF3: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.

Connector & Terminal - [(E15) No.2 - Engine Ground]:




Measure resistance of harness between camshaft position sensor connector and engine ground.

CHECK: Is the resistance less than 5 Ohms?

YES: Go to step 10AF4.

NO: Repair harness and connector.

NOTE: In this case, repair the following:
- Open circuit in harness between camshaft position sensor and ECM connector
- Poor contact in ECM connector
- Poor contact in coupling connector (B21).

10AF4: CHECK CONDITION OF CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR.

CHECK: Is the camshaft position sensor installation bolt tightened securely?

YES: Go to step 10AF5.

NO: Tighten camshaft position sensor installation bolt securely.

10AF5: CHECK CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR.

1. Remove camshaft position sensor.

Terminals - [No.1 - No.2]:




2. Measure resistance between connector terminals of camshaft position sensor.

CHECK: Is the resistance between 1 and 4 K.Ohms?

YES: Repair poor contact in camshaft position sensor connector.

NO: Replace camshaft position sensor.
