DTC P0021 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 2) |
DTC P0022 Camshaft Position "A" - Timing Over-Retarded (Bank 2) |
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
| P0011 P0021 | Advanced cam timing: After engine is warmed up, valve timing does not change from current valve timing while driving at engine speed of 400 to 4,000 rpm (1 trip detection logic) |
|
| P0012 P0022 | Retarded cam timing: After engine is warmed up, valve timing does not change from current valve timing while driving at engine speed of 400 to 4,000 rpm (2 trip detection logic) |
|
| Abnormal bank | Advanced timing over (valve timing is out of specified range) | Retarded timing over (valve timing is out of specified range) |
| Bank 1 | P0011 | P0012 |
| Bank 2 | P0021 | P0022 |
| 1.CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 OR P0022) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.
Read DTCs.
| Display (DTC output) | Proceed to |
| P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 | A |
| P0011, P0012, P0021 or P0022 and other DTCs | B |

| A | |
| 2.PERFORM ACTIVE TEST (OPERATE OCV) |
Start and warm up the engine.
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Activate the VVT System (bank 1) or Control the VVT System (bank 2).
Using the tester, operate the OCV and check the engine speed.
| Tester Operation | Specified Condition |
| OCV is OFF | Normal engine speed |
| OCV is ON | Rough idle or engine stall |
|
| ||||
| OK | |
| 3.CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P0011, P0012, P0021 OR P0022) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
Clear the DTC (Click here).
Start the engine and warm it up.
Change the ECM from normal mode to check mode using the tester (Click here).
Drive the vehicle for more than 10 minutes.
Read DTCs.
|

| 4.CHECK VALVE TIMING (CHECK FOR LOOSE AND JUMPED TOOTH ON TIMING CHAIN) |
![]() |
Remove the cylinder head cover.
Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with the timing mark "0" of the timing chain cover.
Check that the timing marks of the camshaft timing gears are aligned with the timing marks of the bearing cap as shown in the illustration.
If not, turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360°) and align the marks as described above.
|
| ||||
| OK | |
| 5.INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY (OCV) |
![]() |
Measure the resistance between the terminals of the OCV.
Remove the OCV.
Apply the positive (+) battery voltage to terminal 2 and negative (-) battery voltage to terminal 1. Check the valve operation.
|
| ||||
| OK | |
| 6.INSPECT OIL CONTROL VALVE FILTER |
|
| ||||
| OK | |
| 7.REPLACE CAMSHAFT TIMING GEAR ASSEMBLY |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
Clear DTCs (Click here).
Start the engine and warm it up.
Change the ECM from normal mode to check mode using the tester (Click here).
Drive the vehicle for more than 10 minutes.
Confirm that no DTC is set using the tester.
