* The engine is idling.

(e) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(f) Perform the Active Test, and then check that the actuator rod operates.

If the result is not as specified, inspect the intake air control valve, vacuum tank and VSV (for ACIS) for normal operation. Replace malfunctioning parts as necessary.

(g) Install the V-bank cover.

2. CHECK INTAKE AIR CONTROL VALVE OPERATION

(a) Remove the V-bank cover.

(b) Using a 3-way connector, connect a vacuum gauge to the actuator hose.





(c) Start the engine.

(d) While the engine is idling, check that the vacuum gauge indicates 0 kPa (0 mmHg, 0 in.Hg) and the rod is at the OFF position

(e) Fully depress the accelerator pedal quickly. Check that the VSV (for ACIS) turns ON and the rod moves in the ON direction.
