parameters for the component. The circuit status parameters change from OK or Not Run to Fault if there is a condition with the circuit or a
connection.

Circuit/System Verification
1. With the engine at normal operating temperature, raise the engine speed to 2,000 RPM for 10 s. DTCs P0010, P0013, P0020, P0023, P2088,
P2089, P2090, P2091, P2092, P2093, P2094, or P2095 should not set.
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, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve.
2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 1 and ground.
瀚慖f the test lamp does not illuminate, test the 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.
3. Connect a DMM, set on the diode setting, between the control circuit terminal 2 and ground. The voltage should be greater than 2 V.
瀚慖f the DMM displays OL, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit/connections test normal,
replace the Engine Control Module.
瀚慖f less than the specified value, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the Engine Control Module.
4. Command the Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve ON and OFF with a scan tool. The DMM should transition from greater than 2 V
when commanded OFF to less than 1 V, when commanded ON.
瀚慖f the circuit voltage does not correspond to the specified values, replace the Engine Control Module.
5. If all circuits/connections test normal, test or replace the appropriate Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve.
Component Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve.
2. Test for 7-12 ohm between the control terminal 2 and the ignition terminal 1 of the Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve.
瀚慖f not within the specified range, replace the Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve.
3. Test for infinite resistance between each terminal and the Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve housing.
瀚慖f not the specified value, replace the Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve.
