Variable Camshaft Timing Solenoids

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2015 Jaguar XKR-S, 2015 Jaguar XKR, 2014 Jaguar XKR-S, 2014 Jaguar XKR, and 2013 Jaguar XKR-S. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The VCT solenoids control the position of the spool valves in the VCT units.

G11284798

The VCT solenoids are installed in the front upper timing covers, immediately in front of their related VCT units. Each VCT solenoid is secured with two screws and sealed with an O-ring. A two pin electrical connector provides the interface with the engine harness.

Each VCT solenoid incorporates a spindle that acts on the spool valve in the related VCT unit to advance and retard the camshaft timing. The VCT solenoids operate independently and are controlled by a PWM signal from the ECM.
