DTC P0661 or P0662

The intake manifold tuning solenoid valve system uses variable air induction tuning in order to achieve maximum performance and efficiency over the entire operating range of the engine. The characteristic torque curve of a normally aspirated engine depends mainly on how the engines average pressure changes over the engine speed range. The average pressure is proportional to the volume of the air mass present in the cylinder when the intake valve is closed. The design of the intake system determines how large an air mass can be drawn into a cylinder at a given engine speed. An intake manifold tuning solenoid valve is used to change the intake manifold plenum configuration. When the intake manifold tuning solenoid valve is open, the intake manifold is configured to one large plenum. When the intake manifold tuning solenoid valve is closed, the intake manifold is configured to 2 smaller plenums. The 2 intake manifold plenum sizes result in different torque curves, which improves performance at low and high engine speeds. During low speed, high load conditions, the intake manifold tuning solenoid valve is closed creating a longer runner path inside the plenum, which increases torque. During higher engine speeds and loads, the intake manifold tuning solenoid valve opens, creating a shorter runner path inside the plenum, which increases horsepower.

The intake manifold tuning solenoid valve actuator solenoid has the following circuits:

P0661 00

The ECM detects a short to ground or an open on the intake manifold tuning solenoid valve actuator solenoid control circuit for greater than 2 s.

P0662 00

The ECM detects a short to voltage on the intake manifold tuning solenoid valve actuator solenoid control circuit for greater than 2 s.

DTCs P0661 00 and P0662 00 are Type B DTCs.

DTCs P0661 00 and P0662 00 are Type B DTCs.

1. Use the scan tool output controls to command the Intake Manifold Runner Control Valve open and closed. Verify that the diaphragm arm moves at least once when there is sufficient vacuum in the storage tank.
2. Use the scan tool output controls to command the Intake Manifold Runner Control Valve open and closed. An audible click should be heard and felt.
3. Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the freeze frame/failure records data.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Q22 Intake Manifold Tuning Solenoid Valve.
2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 1 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 2 and the ignition circuit terminal 1.
4. Command the Intake Manifold Runner Control Valve Open and Closed with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.

⇒	If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit terminal 2 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

⇒	If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit terminal 2 for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

5. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the Q22 Intake Manifold Tuning Solenoid Valve.
