VALVEMATIC SDOWN Circuit
|
DESCRIPTION
The ECM turns the power supply to the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly on/off. Normally, when the ignition switch is ON, +B voltage is constantly supplied to the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly. However, when a malfunction is detected in the VALVEMATIC system, the ECM turns the power supply to the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly off. The power supply is turned on/off through the shutdown (SDWN) signal line between the ECM and continuously variable valve lift controller assembly.
DTC No.

VALVEMATIC SDOWN Circuit
|
Shutdown (SDWN) signal line has a short circuit to +B or ground (1 trip detection logic):
-
Shutdown (SDWN) signal line short circuit to +B: While the ignition switch is off, even though the CPU in the ECM requests shutdown (SDWN) signal Low, the monitor detects High
-
Short circuit (Short circuit to ground): While the ignition switch is ON, even though the CPU in the ECM requests shutdown (SDWN) signal High, the monitor detects Low

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, the ECM turns the shutdown (SDWN) signal on (High) which turns the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly power on. Also, when the ignition switch is off or during fail-safe mode, the shutdown (SDWN) signal is turned off (Low) which turns the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly power off.
The ECM electrically monitors if the shutdown (SDWN) signal is actually turned on/off by the output circuit of the CPU. If the power supply to the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly is not turned on/off according to the shutdown (SDWN) signal, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and store this DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
-
Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
-
Start the engine and warm it up.
-
Turn the Techstream on.
-
Clear the DTCs.
-
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
-
Turn the ignition switch to ON and wait 5 seconds.
-
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
-
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
-
Turn the Techstream on.
-
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
-
Read the pending DTCs.
HINT:
-
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
-
If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
-
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
-
Input the DTC: P104A.
-
Check the DTC judgment result.

HINT:
-
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
-
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
-
If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE or N/A and no pending DTC is output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs.

-
If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
-
If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.
WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
When one of the following DTCs is output and the MIL is illuminated, actuator position learning is performed during the next trip. After the system returns to normal, actuator position learning is performed during the next trip and the MIL remains illuminated until learning is complete.
Actuator position learning is performed when these DTCs are output.

|
HINT:
-
After performing repairs, perform the following procedures and check that DTCs are not output again.
-
After using the Techstream to perform minimum valve lift learning, keep the engine idling for 30 seconds to complete learning. Otherwise, the VALVEMATIC system may not operate normally, causing poor acceleration, etc.
-
Read Freeze Frame Data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
(e) Read the DTCs.
