    *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: 

    NG 

    See step  4

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK SENSOR INSTALLATION AND CONDUCT VISUAL INSPECTION (VVT SENSOR (FOR INTAKE CAMSHAFT))

    *a Clearance
    1. Visually check the VVT sensor (for intake camshaft) for damage.
    2. Check the VVT sensor (for intake camshaft) installation condition.

      OK

      The VVT sensor (for intake camshaft) does not have any damage and is installed properly.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    SECURELY REINSTALL VVT SENSOR (FOR INTAKE CAMSHAFT) 

    Refer to INSTALLATION [12/2019 - 10/2022]

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. INSPECT INTAKE CAMSHAFT (TIMING ROTOR) 
    1. Check the timing rotor of the intake camshaft.

      OK

      Camshaft timing rotor does not have any cracks or deformation.

      HINT: 

      Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the intake camshaft.

      Refer to INITIALIZATION [12/2019 - 10/2022]

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE VVT SENSOR (FOR INTAKE CAMSHAFT) 

    Refer to REMOVAL [12/2019 - 10/2022]

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE INTAKE CAMSHAFT 

    Refer to REMOVAL [12/2019 - 10/2022]

  4. 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
