DTC P0011 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 1); DTC P0012 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Retarded (Bank 1); DTC P0021 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 2); DTC P0022 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Retarded (Bank 2): Wiring Diagram

Refer to DTC P0010  .

HINT:

• If DTC P0011 or P0012 is displayed, check the right bank VVT system for intake camshaft circuit (bank 1).
• Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes cylinder No. 1.
• If DTC P0021 or P0022 is displayed, check the left bank VVT system for intake camshaft circuit (bank 2).
• Bank 2 refers to the bank that does not include cylinder No. 1.
• Read freeze frame data using an intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air/fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction (See FREEZE FRAME DATA  ).

1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 OR P0022) 
   1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
   2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the tester on.
   3. Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
   4. Read DTCs.

      HINT:

      If any DTCs other than P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST BY INTELLIGENT TESTER (OPERATE OCV) 
   1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
   2. Start the engine and turn the tester on.
   3. Warm up the engine.
   4. Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / VVT CTRL B1 or VVT CTRL B2.
   5. Check the engine speed while operating the Oil Control Valve (OCV) using the tester.

      OK 

      TESTER OPERATION SPECIFIED CONDITION
      
      

      Tester Operation	Specified Condition
      OCV OFF	Normal engine speed
      OCV ON	Engine idles roughly or stalls (soon after OCV switched from OFF to ON)

   NG : Go to step   4 

   OK : GO TO NEXT STEP 

3. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 OR P0022) 
   1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
   2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the tester on.
   3. Clear DTCs.
   4. Start the engine and warm it up.
   5. Switch the ECM from normal mode to check mode using the tester.
   6. Drive the vehicle for more than 10 minutes.
   7. Read DTCs using the tester.

      OK: No DTC output. 

   NG : Go to step 4 

   OK : END 

4. CHECK VALVE TIMING (CHECK FOR LOOSE AND JUMPED TEETH ON TIMING CHAIN) 
   1. Remove the cylinder head cover RH and LH.
   2. Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with the timing mark "0" of the timing chain cover.
   3. Check that the timing marks of the camshaft timing gears are aligned wit h the timing marks of the bearing cap as shown in the illustration.

      If not, turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360°), then align the marks as above.

      OK: Timing marks on camshaft timing gears are aligned as shown in the illustration. 

   4. Reinstall the cylinder head cover.

   NG : ADJUST VALVE TIMING 

   OK : GO TO NEXT STEP 

5. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY (OCV) 
   1. Remove the OCV.
   2. Measure the resistance between the terminals of the OCV.

      Standard resistance: 6.9 to 7.9 Ω at 20°C (68°F) 

   3. Apply positive battery voltage to terminal 1 and negative battery voltage to terminal 2. Check the valve operation.

      OK: Valve moves quickly. 

   4. Reinstall the OCV.

   NG : REPLACE CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY 

   OK : GO TO NEXT STEP 

6. INSPECT OIL CONTROL VALVE FILTER AND PIPE 
   1. Remove the oil pipe No. 1 or No. 2.
   2. Remove the oil control valve filter.
   3. Check that the filter and pipe are not clogged.

      OK: The filter and pipe are not clogged. 

   NG : CLEAN OIL CONTROL VALVE FILTER AND PIPE 

   OK : GO TO NEXT STEP 

7. REPLACE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY

8. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS 
   1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
   2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the tester on.
   3. Clear DTCs.
   4. Start the engine and warm up.
   5. Switch the ECM from normal mode using the check mode using the tester.
   6. Driver the vehicle for more than 10 minutes.
   7. Read output DTCs using the intelligent tester.

      OK: No DTC output. 

   HINT:

   DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 is output when foreign objects in engine oil are caught in some parts of the system. These codes will stay registered even if the system returns to normal after a short time. These foreign objects are then captured by the oil filter, thus eliminating the source of the problem.

   OK : SYSTEM IS OK 

   NG : REPLACE ECM
