DTC P0661 [L3]

BME010200600202

DTC P0661

VIS control solenoid valve circuit low input

DETECTION CONDITION

• The PCM monitors VIS control solenoid valve control signal at PCM terminal 4R. If the PCM turns the VIS control solenoid valve off but voltage at PCM terminal 4R still remains low, the PCM determines that the VIS control solenoid valve circuit has malfunction.
Diagnostic support note
• This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
• MIL illuminates if PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM.
• PENDING CODE is available if PCM detects the above malfunction condition.
• FREEZE FRAME DATA is available.
• DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• VIS control solenoid valve malfunction
• Open circuit in wiring between main relay and VIS control solenoid valve terminal A
• Open circuit in wiring between VIS control solenoid valve terminal B and PCM terminal 4R
• Short to ground in wiring between VIS control solenoid valve terminal B and PCM terminal 4R
• Poor connection at VIS control solenoid valve or PCM connector
• PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
• Perform DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE.
• Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Intermittent concern exists. Go to INTERMITTENT CONCERN TROUBLESHOOTING procedure.
2
INSPECT VIS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION
• Turn the ignition switch off.
• Disconnect the VIS control solenoid valve connector.
• Inspect for poor connection (damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion, etc.).
• Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the terminal, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT VIS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE MALFUNCTION
• Perform VIS control solenoid valve inspection.
• Is the VIS control solenoid valve normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the VIS control solenoid valve, then go to step 8.
4
INSPECT VIS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR OPEN
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine off).
• Measure the voltage between VIS control solenoid valve terminal A (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
• Is the voltage B+?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the wiring harness for open circuit, then go to Step 8.
5
INSPECT VIS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
• Inspect for continuity between VIS control solenoid valve terminal B (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
• Is there continuity?
Yes
Repair or replace the wiring harness for short to ground, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION
• Disconnect the PCM connector.
• Inspect for poor connection at terminal 4R. (damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion, etc.).
• Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair the terminal, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT VIS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN
• Inspect for continuity between VIS control solenoid valve terminal B (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 4R (wiring harness-side).
• Is there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the wiring harness for open circuit, then go to the next step.
8
VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P0661 COMPLETED
• Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine off).
• Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the WDS or equivalent.
• Perform KOER self-test.
• Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
9
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
• Perform "After Repair Procedure".
• Is there any DTC present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Troubleshooting completed.
