Free Car Diagnostic Image

Car diagnostic fault code P000A ‘A’ Camshaft Position Slow Response Bank 1. The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors and evaluates the response of the actual position on a target position change.



The setpoint and camshaft position is saved at the beginning of a setpoint change. If this changed over time is large enough, the camshaft phasing change is evaluated. If the change after the diagnostic time is smaller than a threshold, a slow response is detected, and if the value is greater, then there is no concern. By detecting a concern, an antibounce counter is incremented otherwise the counter is decremented. If the counter exceeds an adjustable limit, the P000A is set.
