DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P1360

While engine is running, malfunction in rotation signal (VTS) of camshaft timing control motor is detected for 3 seconds

(1 trip detection logic)

  • Camshaft timing control motor (for Bank 1)

  • Wire harness and connector

  • Camshaft timing control motor (for Bank 1) power source
P1361

While engine is running, malfunction in rotation signal (VTS) of camshaft timing control motor is detected for 3 seconds

(1 trip detection logic)

  • Camshaft timing control motor (for Bank 2)

  • Wire harness and connector

  • Camshaft timing control motor (for Bank 1) power source

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC is output when a rotation signal malfunction is detected in the intake side camshaft timing control motor. While the engine is running, if a rotation signal (VTS) malfunction is detected, a DTC is immediately output (1 trip detection logic). If the engine is idled for 30 seconds, a DTC is detected.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips


  • Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.

  • When viewed from the rear of the engine assembly, Bank 1 is on the left side and Bank 2 is on the right side.

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT VVT RELAY (VVT LH, VVT RH)


    1. Inspect the VVT relay (VVT LH, VVT RH) Click here.


    NG

    REPLACE VVT RELAY (VVT LH, VVT RH)

    OK

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE VOLTAGE)


    1. A01H0JXE08

      Disconnect the E9 or E19 camshaft timing control motor.

    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      E9-1 (+B) - Body ground Power switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
      E19-1 (+B) - Body ground

    NG

    REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (VVT RELAY (VVT LH, VVT RH) - CAMSHAFT TIMING CONTROL MOTOR)

    OK

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CAMSHAFT TIMING CONTROL MOTOR - BODY GROUND)


    1. A01H0JXE12

      Turn the power switch off.

    2. Disconnect the E9 or E19 camshaft timing control motor.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E9-2 (PGND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      E19-2 (PGND) - Body ground

    NG

    INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING CONTROL MOTOR (for Bank 1 or Bank 2) Click here

    OK

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CAMSHAFT TIMING CONTROL MOTOR - ECM)


    1. A01H150E48

      Disconnect the E10 or E18 camshaft timing control motor connector.

    2. Disconnect the E4 or E2 ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance (Check for open)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E10-3 (VTS1) - E4-30 (EMR1) Always Below 1 Ω
      E18-3 (VTS2) - E2-29 (EMR2)
      Standard resistance (Check for short)
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E10-3 (VTS1) or E4-30 (EMR1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E18-3 (VTS2) or E2-29 (EMR2) - Body ground

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  5. REPLACE CAMSHAFT TIMING CONTROL MOTOR (for Bank 1 or Bank 2)


    1. Replace the camshaft timing control motor Click here.

  6. CONFIRM WHETHER MALFUNCTION HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY REPAIRED


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Put the engine in inspection mode Click here.

    3. Idle the engine for 10 seconds.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.

    5. Read the DTCs.

  7. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING CONTROL MOTOR (for Bank 1 or Bank 2)


    1. Check that the 3 bolts of the camshaft timing control motor are tightened securely.

      Torque:
      21 N*m  { 214 kgf*cm, 15 ft.*lbf }
