DTC P0016-00: Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation Bank 1 Sensor A; DTC P0018-00: Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation Bank 2 Sensor A [12/2019 - 10/2022]: Description

In the VVT (Variable Valve Timing) system, the appropriate intake valve open and close timing is controlled by the ECM. The ECM performs intake valve control by performing the following: 1) controlling the intake camshaft, cam timing oil control solenoid assembly, camshaft timing gear bolt (camshaft timing oil control valve assembly [for intake camshaft]) and operating the camshaft timing gear; and 2) changing the relative positions of the camshaft and crankshaft.
