Intake Flap Motor V157 and Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor G336, Checking
The Intake Flap Motor (V157)/ Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor (G336) are one component and cannot be serviced separately.
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Multimeter.
• Wiring diagram.
Test requirements
• The Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) fuses OK.
• Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.
• All electrical consumers such as, lights and rear window defroster, switched off.
• Vehicles with automatic transmission, shift selector lever into position " P" or "N".
• A/C switched off.
• Ground (GND) connections between engine/transmission/chassis OK.
• Ignition switched off.
Test procedure
- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Preliminary Check ] Preliminary Check.
Start diagnosis
- Remove the engine cover with air filter.
- Disconnect the Intake Flap Motor (V157)/Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor (G336) electrical harness connector - arrow -.
- Switch the ignition on.
- Using a multimeter, check the Intake Flap Motor (V157)/Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor (G336) electrical harness connector terminals 1 to 3 for voltage.
Specified value: about 5 V
- Switch ignition off.
If the specified value was obtained:
- Replace the Intake Flap Motor (V157)/Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor (G336).
If the specified value was not obtained:
Checking wiring
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
- Install the test box.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to => [ Motronic Engine Control Module J623, Replacing ] Motronic Engine Control Module J623, Replacing.
- Using a Multimeter, check the Intake Flap Motor (V157)/Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor (G336) electrical harness connector terminals to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector T60 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, loose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If no malfunction is detected in the wiring:
- Erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.
- Perform a road test to verify repair.
If the DTC does not return:
Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Readiness Code.
- End diagnosis.
If the DTC does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was not OK:
- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to => [ Motronic Engine Control Module J623, Replacing ] Motronic Engine Control Module J623, Replacing.
- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.
Final Procedures
After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Readiness Code.
End of diagnosis.
