Circuit/System Verification

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2011 GMC Yukon XL, 2011 GMC Yukon, 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2011 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    NOTE:
    • The engine oil level and the oil pressure are critical to the correct operation of the camshaft position actuator system. Verify that the engine has the correct oil level and the correct oil pressure before continuing with this diagnostic.
    • The engine oil condition has a major impact on the camshaft actuator system. Debris in the oil can interfere with the camshaft position actuator solenoid and the mechanical camshaft actuator operation. Inspect for dirty or degraded crankcase oil. The engine may require an oil change. Inquire with the customer when the last oil change was performed. You may also monitor the scan tool Engine Oil Life Remaining parameter. Advise the customer an oil change may be required.
  1. Verify the engine has the correct oil pressure. Refer to Oil Pressure Diagnosis and Testing .
  2. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool DTC information. Verify that none of the following DTCs are set. DTC P0335, P0336, P0340, P0341, P0521, P0522, P0523, P1516, P2101, P2119, or P2176.
  3. NOTE:

    If a crankshaft or camshaft position sensor DTC is set, the Camshaft Position Actuator output control will not function.

  4. Engine idling, command the camshaft position actuator solenoid to 20° with a scan tool. The Desired Camshaft Position parameter should match the Camshaft Position parameter.
  5. Observe the Camshaft Position Variance parameter with a scan tool. The Camshaft Position Variance will increment for several seconds, until the Camshaft Position value matches the Desired Camshaft Position value. The Camshaft Position Variance value should return to 0°.
  6. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC, to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that are captured in the Freeze Fame/Failure Records Data List.
