EXHAUST SYSTEM 6F – 7
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This system controls the formation of NOx emission by recirculating the exhaust gas into the combustion chamber
through the intake manifold.
4JA1T(L):
The two EGR valves are controlled by two Vacuum Switching Valve (VSV) controlled by EGR controller according to
signals from various sensors.
The amount of EGR depends on the number of engine rotations and the opening of the accelerator.

EXHAUST SYSTEM 6F – 11
INSPECTION
4JA1T(L)
Vacuum switch valve (VSV)
Use a circuit tester to measure the V.S.V. resistance.
V.S.V Resistance at 20°C
37 ~ 44
If the resistance is not within specification, replace it.
EGR Valve
Apply vacuum to the EGR valve, check to see the valve
operation.
Negative Pressure
4JA1TC/4JH1TC
RTW46ESH000301
EVRV
Use a circuit tester to measure the EVRV resistance.
EVRV Resistance at 20°C
14
If the resistance is not within specification, replace it.
EGR Valve
Apply vacuum to the EGR valve, check to see the valve
operation.
Negative Pressure 4JH1TC
Less than 250 mmHg Not operation
More than 300 mmHg Operation
Negative Pressure 4JA1TC
Less than 100 mmHg Not operation
More than 170 mmHg Operation
Less then 180 mmHg Not operation
More than 240 mmHg Operation

6A-4 ENGINE MECHANICAL (6VE1 3.5L)
Engine Diagnosis
Hard Starting
1. Starting Motor Does Not Turn Over
Troubleshooting Procedure
Turn on headlights and starter switch.
Symptom Possible Cause Action
Headlights go out or dim considerably Battery run down or under charged Recharge or replace battery
Terminals poorly connected Clean battery posts and terminals
and connect properly
Starting motor coil circuit shorted Overhaul or replace
Starting motor defective Overhaul or replace
2. Ignition Trouble
Starting Motor Turns Over But
Engine Does Not Start Spark Test
Disconnect an ignition coil from any spark plug.
Connect the spark plug tester 5884003830, start the
engine, and check if a spark is generated in the spark
plug tester. Before starting the engine, make sure that
the spark plug tester is properly grounded. To avoid
electrical shock, do not touch the part where insulation
of the ignition coil is broken while the engine is running.
Symptom Possible Cause Action
Spark jumps across gap Spark plug defective Clean or replace
Ignition timing incorrect Refer to Ignition System
Fuel not reaching fuel injector(s) or
engine Refer to item 3 (Trouble in fuel
system)
Valve timing incorrect Adjust
Engine lacks compression Refer to item 4 (Engine lacks
compression)
No sparking takes place Ignition coil disconnected or broken Connect properly or replace
Electronic Ignition System with
module Replace
Poor connections in engine harness Correct
Engine Control Module cable
disconnected or defective Correct or replace

6C-10 ENGINE FUEL (6VE1 3.5L)
Fuel Pump Relay
General Description
In order to control the fuel pump and sender assembly
(FPAS) operation, the FPAS relay is provided. When
the starter switch is turned to “ON" position, the FPAS
relay operates the FPAS for 2 seconds.
When it is turned to “START" position, the Engine
Control Module receives the reference pulse from the
Ignition Control Module and it operates the relay, again
causing the FPAS to feed fuel.

6D3-2 STARTING AND CHARGING SYSTEM (6VE1 3.5L)
Starting System
General Description
Cranking Circuit
The cranking system consists of a battery, starter,
starter switch, starter relay, etc. These main
components are connected.
Starter
The cranking system employs a magnetic type
reduction starter in which the motor shaft is also used
as a pinion shaft. When the starter switch is turned on,
the contacts of magnetic switch are closed, and the
armature rotates. At the same time, the plunger is
attracted, and the pinion is pushed forward by the shif
t
lever to mesh with the ring gear.
Then, the ring gear runs to start the engine. When the
engine starts and the starter switch is turned off, the
plunger returns, the pinion is disengaged from the ring
gear, and the armature stops rotation. When the engine
speed is higher than the pinion, the pinion idles, so tha
t
the armature is not driven.
