Description and operation
Installed
on the cooling pan motor top, the RCV (Recirculation Valve) Control
Solenoid Valve operates the RCV actuator to control the by-pass passage
of the turbocharger compressor.
When
the throttle valve is closed during engine running [Tip-out], crash
noise will be generated from the impeller due to rapid surge in boost
pressure. So, in this case, in order to prevent this phenomenon, ECM
maintains the appropriate boost pressure by opening the by-pass passage.

Repair procedures
1. | Turn the ignition switch OFF. |
2. | Disconnect the RCV connector. |
3. | Measure resistance between the RCV terminals 1 and 2. |
4. | Check that the resistance is within the specification.
