DTC Detection Condition:

DESCRIPTION

HINT: These DTCs relate to the Oil Control Valve (OCV).

The Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system includes the ECM, Oil Control Valve (OCV) and VVT controller.

The ECM sends a target duty-cycle control signal to the OCV. This control signal regulates the oil pressure supplied to the VVT controller. Camshaft timing control is performed according to engine operating conditions such as intake air volume, throttle valve position and engine coolant temperature. The ECM controls the OCV, based on the signals transmitted by several sensors. The VVT controller regulates the intake camshaft angle using oil pressure through the OCV. As a result, the relative positions of the camshaft and crankshaft are optimized, the engine torque and fuel economy improve, and the exhaust emissions decrease under overall driving conditions. The ECM detects the actual intake valve timing using signals from the camshaft and crankshaft position sensors, and performs feedback control. This is how the target intake valve timing is verified by the ECM.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

Monitor Strategy:

Typical Enabling Conditions:

Typical Malfunction Thresholds:

The ECM optimizes the valve timing using the Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system to control the intake valve camshaft. The VVT system includes the ECM, the OCV and the VVT controller. The ECM sends target"duty-cycle-control signal to the OCV. This control signal, applied to the OCV, regulates the oil pressure supplied to the VVT controller. The VVT controller can advance or retard the intake valve camshaft.

Example: A DTC will set if: 1) the difference between the target and actual valve timing is more than 5° of the Crankshaft Angle (CA) and the condition continues for more than 4.5 sec.; or 2) the OCV is forcibly activated 63 times or more.

Advanced cam DTCs are subject to 1 trip detection logic.
Retarded cam DTCs are subject to 2 trip detection logic.
The monitor runs if all the conditions are met:

INSPECTION PROCEDURE






HINT:
- If DTC P0011 or P0012 is displayed, check the bank 1 Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system circuit.
- If DTC P0021 or P0022 is displayed, check the bank 2 VVT system circuit.
- Bank 1 includes No. 1 cylinder, but bank 2 does not. No. 1 cylinder is located in the front part of the engine, opposite the transmission.
- Read freeze frame data using the 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.
