Diagnostic Aids
The valve lifter oil manifold solenoids are assigned to the following engine cylinders:
* Solenoid #1 = Cylinder #1
* Solenoid #2 = Cylinder #4
* Solenoid #3 = Cylinder #6
* Solenoid #4 = Cylinder #7

Circuit/System Verification
Note: DTC P3401, P3425, P3441, and P3449 sets with an open ignition circuit fuse.
1. Ignition ON, command the appropriate cylinder deactivation solenoid ON and OFF while observing the following status parameters with a
scan tool:
* Cyl. 1, 4, 6, or 7 Deact. Sol. Ckt Open Test Status
* Cyl. 1, 4, 6, or 7 Deact. Sol. Ckt Short Gnd Test Status
* Cyl. 1, 4, 6, or 7 Deact. Sol. Ckt Short Volts Test Status
Each parameter should display OK or Not Run
2. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the
conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, remove the intake manifold. Refer to Intake Manifold Replacement (Without AFM) (See: Engine, Cooling and
Exhaust/Engine/Intake Manifold/Service and Repair)Intake Manifold Replacement (With AFM) (See: Engine, Cooling and
Exhaust/Engine/Intake Manifold/Service and Repair).
2. Disconnect the harness connector at the valve lifter oil manifold assembly.
3. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal E and ground.
锟斤拷If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and
the ignition circuit fuse is open, test all the components connected to the ignition circuit and replace as necessary.
