SOLENOID VALVE INSPECTION [SJ6A-EL]

CAUTION:

  • Water or foreign material entering the connector can cause poor connections or corrosion. Be sure that water or foreign material do not enter the connector when disconnecting it.

  • Do not damage the terminals.

Resistance inspection (On-vehicle)

1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [LF].)
3. Disconnect the solenoid valve connector.

4. Measure the resistance between the following terminals.

  • If there is any malfunction, inspect the coupler component.

7. Install the battery cover.

Continuity Inspection (On-Vehicle Inspection)

CAUTION:

  • Water or foreign material entering the connector can cause a poor connection or corrosion. Be sure not to allow water or foreign material on the connector when disconnecting.

  • Do not damage the terminals.

1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [LF].)
3. Disconnect the solenoid valve connector.

4. Verify that there is no continuity between coupler component terminals C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J and GND.
  • If there is any malfunction, inspect the coupler component.

5. Connect the solenoid valve connector.
6. Connect the negative battery cable. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [LF].)
7. Install the battery cover.
