CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR

(a)

Disconnect the connector from the VSV of ACM.

(b)

Remove the E.F.I. ECU Relay.

(c)

Check for open between the terminals 3 of the E.F.I. ECU
Relay in the holder and 1 of the VSV connector for ACM.

NOTICE:
Do not insert the tester leads too hard in the procedure
above, or the holder may be damaged.

INSPECT DUTY VACUUM SWITCHING VALVE(OPERATION)

(a)

Disconnect the VSV connector for ACM.

(b)

Check operation of VSV for ACM when battery positive
voltage is applied to the terminals of VSV connector for
ACM or not.
Battery positive voltage is not applied:
The air from pipe G is flowing out through pipe E and
H.
Battery positive voltage is applied:
The air from pipe F is flowing out through pipe E and
H.

INSPECT ENGINE MOUNTING INSULATOR ASSY FRONT

(a)

Disconnect the vacuum hose from front engine mount in-
sulator.

(b)

Using MITYBAC (Hand-Held Vacuum Pump), apply vac-
uum of 80 kPa (600 mmHg, 25 in.Hg) and allow it to stand
for 1 minutes.

(c)

Check that there is no change in the needle movement.

(d)

Check that there is no fluid leakage caused by a brake of
a lower diaphragm.

AIR INTAKE CONTROL CIRCUIT

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The air cleaner inlet is divided into two areas, and a air intake control valve and an actuator have been pro-
vided in one of the areas.
As a result, a reduction in intake noise and an increase in the power output have been realized in the low
to the high-speed range of the engine.
When the engine is operating in the low-to mid-speed range, this control operates the air intake control
valve to close one side of the air cleaner inlet.
When the engine speed is more than 3600 rpm. and the opening of the throttle valve is more than 30

, the

ECM activates VSV ON and operates AICV.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Hand-held Tester:

1

READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER(VSV FOR AICV)

(a)

Turn the ignition switch ON and hand-held tester main
switch ON.

(b)

Select the INTAKE CTRL VSV from the ACTIVE TEST
menu on the hand-held tester.

(c)

Check the operation of the VSV when the VSV is oper-
ated by the hand-held tester.
VSV is ON:
Air from port E flows out through port F.
VSV is OFF:
Air from port E flows out through the air filter.
