Faulty Signal Or Signal Missing
Faulty signal or signal missing
Checking the status
- Start the engine.
Read off the diagnostic status and fault status for the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) by selecting the relevant diagnostic trouble code (DTC) from the list.
Increase the engine speed to 2500 rpm until the diagnostic is "Complete".
Check whether the fault is permanent or intermittent. Read off the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) fault status when the diagnostic status is "Completed".
Hint: In some cases several functions of the component will be diagnosed. This affects the amount of time taken to run the diagnostic.
The fault is permanent if the fault status is "Fault found". If the fault status is "No fault found" the fault is intermittent and not presently active.
Continue - Checking components and wiring
-------------------------------------------------
Checking components and wiring
Check the connector for the camshaft position (CMP) sensor. Check for contact resistance and oxidation.
Check that the camshaft position (CMP) sensor is correctly installed. Check that neither the camshaft position (CMP) sensor nor the housing is damaged. Damage may affect the position of the sensor in relation to the camshaft rotor.
Check the angle position of the camshafts, i.e. that the camshafts are at the correct position in relation to the crankshaft.
Hint: This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) may be caused by a damaged camshaft position (CMP) sensor.
Remedy as necessary.
