DESCRIPTION

The VVT system includes the ECM, camshaft timing oil control valve and VVT controller. The ECM sends a target duty-cycle control signal to the camshaft timing oil control valve. This control signal regulates the oil pressure supplied to the VVT controller. Camshaft timing control is performed according to engine operating conditions such as the intake air volume, throttle valve position and engine coolant temperature. The ECM controls the camshaft timing oil control valve based on the signals transmitted by several sensors. The VVT controller regulates the intake camshaft angle using oil pressure through the camshaft timing oil control valve. As a result, the relative positions of the camshaft and crankshaft are optimized, the engine torque and fuel economy improve and the exhaust emissions decrease under overall driving conditions. The ECM detects the actual intake valve timing using signals from the VVT and crankshaft position sensors and performs feedback control. This is how the target intake valve timing is verified by the ECM.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM optimizes the intake valve timing using the VVT (Variable Valve Timing) system to control the intake camshaft. The VVT system includes the ECM, camshaft timing oil control valve and VVT controller. The ECM sends a target duty cycle control signal to the camshaft timing oil control valve. This control signal regulates the oil pressure supplied to the VVT controller. The VVT controller can advance or retard the intake camshaft.
If the difference between the target and actual intake valve timing is large, and changes in the actual intake valve timing are small, the ECM interprets this as a VVT controller being stuck and stores a DTC.
Example:
A DTC is stored when the following conditions 1 and 2 are met:
1. It takes 5 seconds or more to change the valve timing by 5°CA.
2. After the above condition 1 is met, the OCV is forcibly activated 63 times or more (when the vehicle is idling, this takes approximately 100 seconds).
These DTCs indicate that the VVT controller cannot operate properly due to camshaft timing oil control valve malfunctions or the presence of foreign objects in the camshaft timing oil control valve.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

  • HINT:
  • DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 may be stored when foreign objects in the engine oil are caught in some parts of the system. The DTC will remain stored even if the system returns to normal after a short time. Foreign objects are filtered out by the oil filter.
  • HINT:
Abnormal BankTiming Over-advanced
(Valve Timing is Out of Specified Range)		Timing Over-retarded

Bank 1P0011P0012
Bank 2P0021P0022
If DTC P0011 or P0012 is output, check the right bank VVT system for the intake camshaft circuit (bank 1).
Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes the No. 1 cylinder*.
*: The No. 1 cylinder is the cylinder which is farthest from the transmission.
If DTC P0021 or P0022 is output, check the left bank VVT system for the intake camshaft circuit (bank 2).
Bank 2 refers to the bank that does not include the No. 1 cylinder.
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
1.CHECK FOR ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 OR P0022)

Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.

Read the DTCs.
