    *a Front view of wire harness connector
    (to VVT Sensor (for Intake Camshaft))
    *b Bank 1
    *c Bank 2

    HINT: 

    Make sure that the connector is properly connected. If it is not, securely connect it and check for DTCs again.

    1. Disconnect the VVT sensor (for intake camshaft) connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C16-3 (VC) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 4.5 to 5.5 V
      C17-3 (VC) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 4.5 to 5.5 V
      C16-1 (VVR+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 3.0 to 5.0 V
      C17-1 (VVL+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 3.0 to 5.0 V
    4. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
    5. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C16-3 (VC) - C16-1 (VVR+) Ignition switch off 1.425 to 1.575 kΩ
      C17-3 (VC) - C17-1 (VVL+) Ignition switch off 1.425 to 1.575 kΩ
      C16-2 (VVR-) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      C17-2 (VVL-) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE VVT SENSOR (FOR INTAKE CAMSHAFT). Refer to  REMOVAL [12/2019 - 10/2022] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (VVT SENSOR (FOR INTAKE CAMSHAFT) - ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the VVT sensor (for intake camshaft) connector.
    2. Disconnect the ECM connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C16-1 (VVR+) - C54-132 (VV1+) Always Below 1 Ω
      C16-2 (VVR-) - C54-100 (VV1-) Always Below 1 Ω
      C16-3 (VC) - C54-99 (VCV1) Always Below 1 Ω
      C17-1 (VVL+) - C54-129 (VV2+) Always Below 1 Ω
      C17-2 (VVL-) - C54-97 (VV2-) Always Below 1 Ω
      C17-3 (VC) - C54-98 (VCV2) Always Below 1 Ω
      C16-1 (VVR+) or C54-132 (VV1+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C16-2 (VVR-) or C54-100 (VV1-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C16-3 (VC) or C54-99 (VCV1) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C17-1 (VVL+) or C54-129 (VV2+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C17-2 (VVL-) or C54-97 (VV2-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C17-3 (VC) or C54-98 (VCV2) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE ECM. Refer to  REMOVAL [12/2019 - 09/2020]  , or refer to  REMOVAL [09/2020 - 10/2022] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
