DTC Descriptor
DTC P1011
- Intake Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Park Position Bank 1
DTC P1012
- Exhaust Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Park Position Bank 1
DTC P1013
- Intake Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Park Position Bank 2
DTC P1014
- Exhaust Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Park Position Bank 2
Circuit/System Description
The camshaft position (CMP) actuator system enables the engine control module (ECM) to change the camshaft timing of all 4 camshafts while the
engine is operating. The CMP actuator assembly varies the camshaft position in response to directional changes in oil pressure. The CMP actuator
solenoid controls the oil pressure that is applied to advance or retard a camshaft.
The CMP actuator assemblies have an outer housing that is driven by the engine timing chain. Inside the CMP assembly is a wheel with fixed vanes
that is attached to the camshafts. The CMP actuator assemblies are also equipped with a locking pin. The locking pin prevents movement between
the outer housing and the wheel vane assembly on engine start-ups. The CMP actuator is locked until sufficient oil pressure is available to control
the CMP actuator. The locking pin is released by oil pressure before any movement in the CMP actuator assembly takes place.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* DTC P0010, P0013, P0020, P0023, P2088, P2089, P2090, P2091, P2092, P2093, P2094, or P2095 is not set.
* The engine is operating for greater than 1 second.
* The ECM completed the CMP actuator solenoid output driver test.
* The engine speed is greater than 1,000 RPM.
* DTCs P1011, P1012, P1013, and P1014 run once at engine start-up, in approximately 10 seconds.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM detects that the average of the actual camshaft angle measurements is greater than 10 degrees of the parked position angle on an engine
start-up.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTCs P1011, P1012, P1013, and P1014 are type C DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTCs P1011, P1012, P1013, and P1014 are type C DTCs.
