Replacement
Unscrew and remove knock sensor.
Clean contact surface, apply Loctite 243 in thread-
ed hole then install the new knock sensor.
Torque screw to 20 N•m (15 lbf•ft).
CAUTION:
Improper torque might prevent sen-
sor to work properly and lead engine to severe
damage of internal components.
Re-plug connector.
RAVE SOLENOID
A quick check can be done as follows. When engine
is being stopped, the RAVE valves will open and
close. This can be heard or seen by carefully remov-
ing the caps and feeling the movement with a hand.
Another test can be done using the vehicle com-
munication kit (VCK) with the B.U.D.S. software,
using the MONITORING section. Start engine and
bring its RPM to approximately 6000 and look at
the RAVE solenoid LED. It should turn on, indicat-
ing the RAVE system is working on the electronic
side. However, pneumatic test still has to be per-
formed to validate the mechanical operation.
Leakage/Voltage Test
NOTE:
The solenoid activates both RAVE valves
at the same time.
Unplug the RAVE solenoid supply hose from air
compressor.
1. Air compressor
2. Disconnect RAVE solenoid supply hose
Install leak test pump (P/N 529 021 800) on hose end
and pressurize air line to 69 - 103 kPa (10 - 15 PSI).
Wait some time to see if pressure drops. If so,
check line for leaks. Otherwise, the solenoid is de-
fective and needs to be replaced.
Using the vehicle communication kit (VCK) with
the B.U.D.S. software, energize the RAVE sole-
noid from the ACTIVATION section.
The pressure should drop when the solenoid is ac-
tivated. If the solenoid does not work, disconnect
the connector from the solenoid.
Install a temporary connector on the solenoid with
wires long enough to make the connection out-
side the bilge and apply voltage (12 V) to this test
harness.
If it does not work, replace the solenoid. Other-
wise, proceed with the resistance test below.
Reconnect hose to compressor.
Unplug the outlet hose from RAVE solenoid.
1. RAVE solenoid
2. Supply hose from air compressor
3. Check valve
4. Outlet hose to RAVE valves
Install leak test pump on hose end and apply pres-
sure. If pressure can not be held, check hoses for
leaks. If hoses test good, connect pump directly
to each RAVE valve nipple and pressurize. If pres-
sure drops, replace the defective seal inside RAVE
valve.
Take into account that the RAVE may be mechani-
cally stuck in the cylinder slot. Open the RAVE
valve and check for free operation. Refer to EN-
GINE section and look in TOP END subsection.
