P001500 Camshaft Position "B" - Timing Over-Retarded Bank 1 Exhaust valve timing is stuck at a certain value when in the retard range (1 trip detection logic).

  • Valve timing

  • Camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly

  • ECM

 Comes on DTC stored SAE Code: P0015

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM optimizes the exhaust valve timing using the Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system to control the exhaust camshaft. The VVT system includes the ECM, cam timing oil control solenoid assembly, camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust camshaft timing gear bolt assembly) and camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly. The ECM sends a target duty-cycle control signal to the cam timing oil control solenoid assembly. The camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust camshaft timing gear bolt assembly) is operated to control the oil pressure supplied to the camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly based on this signal. The camshaft timing gear assembly can advance or retard the exhaust camshaft.

If the difference between the target and actual exhaust valve timing is large, and changes in the actual exhaust valve timing are small, the ECM interprets this as the camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly stuck malfunction and stores a DTC.


These DTCs indicate that the camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly cannot operate properly due to a camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust camshaft timing gear bolt assembly) malfunction or the presence of foreign matter in the camshaft timing oil control valve assembly (exhaust camshaft timing gear bolt assembly).

    • If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

    • If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE, perform steps [F] through [H].

  16. Repeat the pattern of accelerating the vehicle from rest to approximately 60 km/h (37 mph) and then decelerating the vehicle 10 to 15 times [F].

    CAUTION:

    When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

    Tech Tips

    Depress the accelerator pedal by a large amount.

  17. Idle the engine for 3 minutes or more [G].

  19. Read the pending DTCs.

    Tech Tips


    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.

  20. Check the DTC judgment result again.

    Tech Tips


    • If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips


  • DTC P001400 or P001500 may be stored when foreign matter in the engine oil is caught in some parts of the system. The DTC will remain stored even if the system returns to normal after a short time. This foreign matter may then be captured by the oil filter.

  • Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P001400 OR P001500)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.
