COMPONENTS

REMOVAL
1. REMOVE FRONT WHEEL RH
2. REMOVE FRONT FENDER APRON SEAL RH (See page EM-26)
3. REMOVE V-RIBBED BELT

(a) Using SST, release the belt tension by turning the belt tensioner counterclockwise, and remove the Vribbed belt from the belt tensioner.

(b) While turning the belt tensioner counterclockwise, align with its holes, and then insert the 5 mm bihexagon wrench into the holes to fix the V-ribbed belt tensioner.

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT V-RIBBED BELT

(a) Visually check the V-ribbed belt for excessive wear, frayed cords, etc.
If any defect has been found, replace the V-ribbed belt.
HINT:
Cracks on the rib side of a V-ribbed belt are considered acceptable.
If the drive belt has chunks missing from its ribs, it should be replaced.

2. INSPECT V-RIBBED BELT TENSIONER ASSEMBLY
(a) Check that nothing gets caught in the tensioner by turning it clockwise and counterclockwise.
If a malfunction exitsts, replace the tensioner.
INSTALLATION
1. INSTALL V-RIBBED BELT

(a) Install the V-ribbed belt.
(b) Using SST, turn the belt tensioner counterclockwise and remove the bar.

(c) If it is difficult to install the V-ribbed belt, perform the following procedure:
(1) Put the V-ribbed belt on every pulley except the tensioner pulley as shown in the illustration.
(2) While releasing the belt tension by turning the belt tensioner counterclockwise, put the Vribbed belt on the tensioner pulley.
NOTICE:

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT FUEL SENDER GAUGE ASSEMBLY
Disconnect the connector from the fuel sender
gauge.
Check that the float moves smoothly between F and
E.
Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2
of the connector according to the value(s) in the
table b ...
Oxygen (A/F) Sensor Signal Stuck
HINT:
Although the DTC titles say oxygen sensor, these DTCs relate to the
Air-Fuel Ratio (A/F) sensor.
Sensor 1 refers to the sensor mounted in front of the Three-Way
Catalytic Converter (TWC) and
located near the engine assembly.
DESCRIPTION
The A/F sensor generates a voltage* ...
Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The intake camshaft's Variable Valve Timing (VVT) sensor (G signal) consists
of a magnet and MRE
(Magneto Resistance Element).
The VVT camshaft drive gear has a sensor plate with 3 teeth on its outer
circumference. When the gear
rotates, changes occur in the air gaps betwee ...
