DTC DESCRIPTION P0017 - CRANKSHAFT POSITION - CAMSHAFT POSITION CORRELATION (BANK 1 SENSOR B)

Description:	This DTC sets when a misalignment between the camshaft and crankshaft is detected. This DTC sets when the misalignment is 1 tooth or greater. This DTC can also set due to variable camshaft timing (VCT) system concerns (oil contamination or VCT solenoid stuck).
Possible Causes:	VCT unit to camshaft alignment Camshaft timing incorrectly set Continuous oil flow to the VCT piston chamber Erratic camshaft position due to low oil pressure Oil flow restriction in the oil passages or the VCT valve body Variable camshaft timing bank 1 solenoid 2 (VCT12) stuck in position VCT12 circuit open VCT12 circuit short to voltage VCT12 circuit short to ground VPWR circuit open Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit) Damaged VCT12 phaser Damaged camshaft position bank 1 sensor 2 (CMP12) CMP12 sensor circuits open CMP12 sensor circuits short to voltage CMP12 sensor circuits short to ground Radio frequency interference
Diagnostic Aids:	This DTC may be accompanied by other DTCs. Diagnose all CMP sensor DTCs first. If no CMP sensor related DTCs are present, continue to follow diagnosis for this DTC. 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, Oil Pressure Test article, to check the engine oil pressure. Refer to the appropriate Engine article, to check the engine timing and VCT phasers.
