P0016-CRANKSHAFT-CAMSHAFT TIMING MISALIGNMENT - BANK 1 SENSOR 1





For a complete wiring diagram Consult Diagrams/Electrical.

- When Monitored:
With the engine speed between 480 and 6816 RPM and no CMP or CKP sensor DTCs detected.

- Set Condition:
The PCM detects that the deviation between the camshaft position and the crankshaft position has exceeded the maximum acceptable value. One Trip Fault. Three good trips to turn off the MIL.





Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview

Diagnostic Test

1. DTC IS ACTIVE
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool select View DTCs.
Record the related Freeze Frame data.
With the scan tool clear DTCs.
Start the engine and allow it to reach operating temperature.

WARNING: When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts, or fan. Do not wear loose clothing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury or death.

With the scan tool select View DTCs.

NOTE: If the DTC does not reset it may be necessary to test drive the vehicle.
