WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
P0016 - CRANKSHAFT POSITION - CAMSHAFT POSITION CORRELATION - BANK 1 SENSOR A

Description:  The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the variable camshaft timing (VCT) position for a misalignment between the camshaft and crankshaft. The test fails when the misalignment is 1 tooth or greater. This DTC can also be set due to VCT system concerns (oil contamination or VCT solenoid stuck).
Possible Causes: 
  • Camshaft timing incorrectly set
  • VCT solenoid stuck in position
  • Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit)
Diagnostic Aids:  This DTC is a functional check of the VCT unit. Diagnose any base engine concerns related to the engine oil pressure or engine timing. Refer to the appropriate ENGINE SYSTEM - GENERAL INFORMATION article .
