Circuit/System Description

The camshaft position actuator system enables the Engine Control Module (ECM) to change the timing of the camshafts while the engine is

operating. The camshaft position actuator solenoid signal from the ECM is pulse width modulated (PWM). The ECM controls the camshaft position

actuator solenoid duty cycle by controlling the amount of solenoid ON time. The camshaft position actuator solenoid controls the advance or the

retard of each camshaft. The camshaft position actuator solenoid controls the oil flow that applies the pressure to advance or retard the camshafts.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Before the ECM can report DTC P000A, P000B, P000C, P000D, P0011, P0014, P0021, or P0024 failed, DTCs P0010, P0013, P0020,

P0023, P0341, P0342, P0343, P0346, P0347, P0348, P0366, P0367, P0368, P0391, P0392, P0393, P2088, P2089, P2090, P2091, P2092,

P2093, P2094, and P2095 must run and pass.

* DTC P0016, P0017, P0018, P0019, P0335, P0336, or P0338 is not set.

* The engine is operating for greater than 1 seconds.

* The engine speed is greater than 520 RPM.

* The engine must accelerate such that the CMP actuator system is commanded from the park position to the phased position. This is

considered a cam control cycle. There must be a minimum of 2 cam control cycles for at least 2.5 seconds each in the phased position.

* DTCs P000A, P000B, P000C, P000D, P0011, P0014, P0021, and P0024 run continuously once the above conditions are met for greater than

600 seconds.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

* The ECM detects the difference between the desired camshaft position angle and the actual camshaft position angle is greater than 7-8

degrees.

OR

* The ECM detects a slow response, a deviation greater than 1.5 degrees in time greater than 2 seconds, for the actual camshaft position angle

to match the desired position angle during the test.

* Either condition exists for greater than 1 second or a cumulative of 10 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTCs P000A, P000B, P000C, P000D, P0011, P0014, P0021, and P0024 are type B DTCs.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTCs P000A, P000B, P000C, P000D, P0011, P0014, P0021, and P0024 are type B DTCs.
