The deviation of the camshaft position from the target point is evaluated during stable driving condition. The PCM/ECM accumulates this deviation for a certain period and sets DTC P0011 when the accumulated deviation is too high. The target camshaft position is predetermined value depending on engine speed and throttle angle in the PCM/ECM.
| Item | Detecting Condition | Possible Cause | |
