chain, or the alignment between a primary intermediate sprocket and the crankshaft. Either condition would cause the camshaft timing for
both cams on one bank to be off an equal number of degrees.
* DTCs P0016, P0017, P0018, and P0019 set at the same time indicates a possible condition with the primary timing chain and the alignment
between both intermediate sprockets and the crankshaft. Or, the crankshaft reluctor wheel has moved and is no longer referenced to top dead
center (TDC).
* Observing the desired and actual camshaft angle parameters, with a scan tool before a DTC sets, may help to isolate whether a condition is
specific to one camshaft, one bank, or caused by a condition with the primary crankshaft timing.

Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition ON, observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Verify that none of the following DTCs are set. DTC P0010, P0013, P0020,
P0023, P0335, P0336, P0340, P0341, P0345, P0346, P0365, P0366, P0390, or P0391.
瀚慖f any of the DTCs listed are set refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle (See: Diagnostic Trouble Code
Descriptions/Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle) for further diagnosis.
2. Idle the engine at normal operating temperature. DTCs P0016, P0017, P0018, or P0019 should not set.
瀚慖f a DTC sets, inspect for the following and repair as necessary:
* The correct installation of the camshaft sensors
* The correct installation of the crankshaft sensor
* A timing chain tensioner condition
* An incorrectly installed timing chain
* Excessive play in the timing chain
* A mechanical cam actuator that is stuck in the full advance or retard position.
* A timing chain that jumped teeth
* A crankshaft reluctor wheel that has moved in relationship to top dead center (TDC) on the crankshaft
3. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the
conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (See: Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.
