P0010





2ZR-FXE ENGINE CONTROL: SFI SYSTEM: P0010: Camshaft Position "A" Actuator Circuit (Bank 1)
P0010 - Camshaft Position "A" Actuator Circuit (Bank 1)

DESCRIPTION

The VVT (variable valve timing) system adjusts the intake valve timing to improve driveability. The engine oil pressure turns the camshaft timing gear assembly to adjust the valve timing.

The camshaft timing oil control valve assembly is a solenoid valve and switches the engine oil line. The valve moves when the ECM applies the 12 V to the solenoid. The ECM changes the energizing time to the solenoid (duty-cycle) in accordance with the camshaft position, crankshaft position, throttle position, etc.









MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC is designed to detect open or short circuits in the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly circuit. If the camshaft timing oil control valve duty-cycle is excessively high or low while the power switch on (IG), the ECM will illuminate the MIL and set the DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

2. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure) Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

4. Turn the power switch off and wait for 30 seconds.

5. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

6. Wait 5 seconds.

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

8. Read the pending DTCs.

HINT
- If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.

9. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.

10. Input the DTC: P0010.

11. Check the DTC judgment result.





HINT
- If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
- If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

12. If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE or UNKNOWN and no pending DTC is output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

HINT
- If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT
Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. 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.

PROCEDURE

1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (OPERATE CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Put the engine in inspection mode (maintenance mode) Component Tests and General Diagnostics.

(e) Start the engine.

(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the VVT Linear (Bank 1).

(g) Check the engine speed while operating the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly using the Techstream.

OK





HINT
- If the result is not acceptable, cool the engine (engine coolant temperature is 30°C (86°F) or less) and perform the Active Test again.
- Test not possible with park (P) selected during charge control. Move shift lever to N to perform test.

NG -- INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY

OK -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS Check For Intermittent Problems

2. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY

(a) Inspect the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly Inspection.

NG -- REPLACE CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY - ECM)

(a) Disconnect the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly connector.

(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

OK -- REPLACE ECM Removal
