Scheme 288: VARIABLE AIR DUCT (VAD) SHUTTER VALVE INSPECTION [AJ]
  1. Remove the air cleaner case. (See «INTAKE AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [AJ]»(ref-288770-S05460329182008062500000) ).
  2. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the VAD shutter valve actuator.
  3. Connect a vacuum pump to the VAD shutter valve actuator.
  4. Apply vacuum and verify that the rod moves. If the rod does not move, replace the air cleaner case.
Vacuum kPa {mmHg, inHg}Rod movement
Below-10 {-75,-3.0}Starts to move
Above -35 {-263, -10.4}Fully pulled
