DTC P0011 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 1)

DTC P0012 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Retarded (Bank 1)


DESCRIPTION

The VVT system includes the ECM, camshaft timing oil control valve and camshaft timing gear. 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 camshaft timing gear. 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 camshaft timing gear 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 camshaft and crankshaft position sensors and performs feedback control. This is how the target intake valve timing is verified by the ECM.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

  1. 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 camshaft timing gear. 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 camshaft timing gear. The camshaft timing gear can advance or retard the intake camshaft.
  2. 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 camshaft timing gear being stuck and stores a DTC.
  3. Example:
  4. DTC P0011 is stored when the following conditions "A" and "B" are met:
    1. It takes 5 seconds or more to change the valve timing by 5°CA (Condition "A").
    2. The above condition "A" is met, for 9.5 seconds or more (Condition "B").
  5. DTC P0012 is stored when the following conditions "C" and "D" are met:
    1. It takes 5 seconds or more to change the valve timing by 5°CA (Condition "C").
    2. The above condition "C" is met, for 60 seconds or more (Condition "D").
  6. These DTCs indicate that the camshaft timing gear cannot operate properly due to camshaft timing oil control valve malfunctions or the presence of foreign objects in the camshaft timing oil control valve.
