  1. Disconnect air suction lower hose from anti-afterburn valve. Start engine and quickly raise engine speed to 3500 RPM and close throttle suddenly. Check for vacuum at air suction lower hose. There should be vacuum.
  2. If there is vacuum, proceed to step 4). If there is no vacuum, check for voltage at anti-afterburn control solenoid valve Yellow/Black wire. If there is no voltage present, check for voltage at control unit connector (Black/Yellow wire). If there is no voltage, check wiring.
  3. Check Brown/Black wire for continuity between control unit and ground. There should be continuity. Check wiring and fuse between control unit connector (Blue/White wire) terminal and ignition switch start terminal.
  4. If voltage is present, disconnect vacuum hose No. 31 from anti-afterburn valve. Check for vacuum. If there is no vacuum present, disconnect vacuum hose No. 30 from anti-afterburn valve and check for vacuum. If there is no vacuum, check for leaks or blockage and retest.
  5. If vacuum is present, replace anti-afterburn valve and retest. Stop engine. Connect voltmeter to anti-afterburn control solenoid valve. Turn ignition switch to "START" position and release key while checking voltage.
  6. There should be no voltage for 4 seconds after releasing key. Voltage should return after 4 seconds. If voltmeter does not indicate as described, check for voltage at control unit connector (Black/Yellow wire). If there is no voltage, check wiring.
  7. Check Brown/Black wire for continuity between control unit and ground. There should be continuity. Check wiring and fuse between control unit connector (Blue/White wire) terminal and ignition switch start terminal.
