    Is DTC P2654 indicated?

    YES 

    The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

    NO 

    Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at rocker arm oil control solenoid B (Bank 1) and the PCM.

  2. Rocker arm oil control solenoid B (Bank 1) internal resistance check

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Disconnect the following connector.

    Rocker arm oil control solenoid B (Bank 1) 2P connector

    -3. At the rocker arm oil control solenoid side, measure the resistance between test points 1 and 2.

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The CSS PG/PG wire is OK. Go to step 4.

    NO 

    Repair an open in the CSS PG/PG wire between rocker arm oil control solenoid B (Bank 1) and G101, then do the repair verification.

  4. Open wire check (CSS line)

    -1. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

    -2. Disconnect the following connector.

    PCM connector C (51P)

    -3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The CSS wire is OK. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM , then do the repair verification.

    NO 

    Repair an open in the CSS wire between rocker arm oil control solenoid B (Bank 1) and the PCM (C14), then do the repair verification.

  5. Repair verification

    -1. Reconnect all connectors.

    -2. Exit the SCS mode with the HDS.

    -3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -4. Reset the PCM with the HDS .

    Reset PCM

    -5. Do the PCM idle learn procedure .

    -6. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3000 RPM without load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

    -7. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

    DTC (PGM-FI)

    Is DTC P2654 indicated?

    YES 

    Check for poor connections or loose terminals at rocker arm oil control solenoid B (Bank 1) and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM , then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1.

    NO 

    Troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM . If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
