Circuit/System Description

The camshaft position (CMP) actuator system enables the engine control module (ECM) to change the timing of the camshaft while the engine is operating. The ECM controls the Camshaft Position Actuator Magnet duty cycle by controlling the amount of ON time. The magnet controls the amount of engine oil flow to the CMP actuator by extending a pintle within the solenoid. The pintle acts against a spool valve in the CMP actuator mechanism which is attached to the front of the camshaft. As the spool valve is moved, oil is directed to the CMP actuator, which rotates the camshaft. The ECM can only command the camshaft position actuator to retard the valve timing from the camshaft park position, or advance the valve timing back to the park position. The total range of valve timing command is 26 degree as measured at the camshaft or 52 degree as measured at the crankshaft.

The ECM controls the Camshaft Position Actuator Magnet by suppling a 12 V pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. The ECM supplies a ground to the low reference circuit.

Conditions for Running the DTC

  1. The ignition switch is in the crank or run position.
  2. The system voltage is between 11-18 V.
  3. The ECM has commanded the CMP actuator solenoid ON.
  4. DTC P0010 runs continuously when the above conditions are met.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ECM detects that the commanded state of the driver and the actual state of the control circuit do not match for greater than 5 s.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

  1. DTC P0010 is a Type B DTC.
  2. The camshaft position actuator is commanded to the park position.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTC P0010 is a Type B DTC.

The engine control module (ECM) uses the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor and the camshaft position (CMP) sensor pulses to monitor the correlation between the crankshaft and the camshaft position. The CKP sensor works in conjunction with a 58X reluctor wheel that is attached to the crankshaft. Each tooth on the reluctor wheel is spaced 6 degrees apart with one span having a 12 degree space. The ECM uses the 12 degree space to determine top dead center (TDC) for cylinders 1 and 6. The camshaft reluctor wheel has 4 teeth, 2 narrow, and 2 wide. The 4 trailing edges of each tooth are evenly spaced at 90 degrees apart around the circumference of the camshaft sprocket. With the engine running, and the CMP actuator in the parked position - if equipped, the ECM expects the camshaft signal pulses to occur 36 crankshaft degrees before top dead center (BTDC) for cylinder number 1, and every 90 degrees thereafter.

  1. DTC P0335, P0336, P0340, P0341, P0641, or P0651 is not set.
  2. The engine is running.
  3. The engine speed is less than 1,200 RPM.
  4. The crankshaft and camshaft position signals are synchronized.
  5. The camshaft position actuator is commanded to the parked position - If equipped.
  6. DTC P0016 runs continuously when the above conditions are met.

The ECM detects the camshaft to crankshaft misalignment by monitoring the camshaft position sensor pulses. The ECM detects one of the following conditions

  1. The ECM detects that the CMP sensor pulses occur greater than 11 degrees before or after the nominal position for 4 out of 5 camshaft revolutions while the starter is engaged.
  2. The ECM detects that the CMP sensor pulses occur greater than 11 degrees before or after the nominal position for 24 out of 30 camshaft revolutions while the engine is operating.

DTC P0016 is a Type B DTC.

HO2S Sensor 1 Current/HO2S Sensor 2 Current

Heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) are used for fuel control and post catalyst monitoring. Each HO2S compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content in the exhaust stream. The HO2S must reach operating temperature to provide an accurate voltage signal. A heating element inside the HO2S minimizes the time required for the sensors to reach operating temperature. Voltage is provided to the heater by an ignition voltage circuit through a fuse. With the engine running, ground is provided to the heater by the HO2S heater low control circuit through a low side driver within the engine control module (ECM). The ECM uses pulse width modulation (PWM) to control the HO2S heater operation to maintain a specific HO2S operating temperature range.

Circuit Description

The intake flow rationality diagnostic provides the within-range rationality check for the mass air flow (MAF), manifold absolute pressure (MAP), and the throttle position sensors. This is an explicit model-based diagnostic containing 4 separate models for the intake system.

  1. The throttle model describes the flow through the throttle body and is used to estimate the MAF through the throttle body as a function of barometric pressure (BARO), throttle position sensor, intake air temperature (IAT), and estimated MAP. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the MAF Performance Test parameter.
  2. The first intake manifold model describes the intake manifold and is used to estimate MAP as a function of the MAF into the manifold from the throttle body and the MAF out of the manifold caused by engine pumping. The flow into the manifold from the throttle uses the MAF estimate calculated from the above throttle model. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the MAP Performance Test 1 parameter.
  3. The second intake manifold model is identical to the first intake manifold model except that the MAF sensor measurement is used instead of the throttle model estimate for the throttle air input. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the MAP Performance Test 2 parameter.
  4. The fourth model is created from the combination and additional calculations of the throttle model and the first intake manifold model. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the Throttle Position Performance Test parameter.

The estimates of MAF and MAP obtained from this system of models and calculations are then compared to the actual measured values from the MAF, MAP, and the throttle position sensors and to each other to determine the appropriate DTC to fail. The following table illustrates the possible failure combinations and the resulting DTC or DTCs.

Conditions for Running the DTCs

  1. DTCs P0102, P0103, P0107, P0108, P0112, P0113, P0116, P0117, P0118, P0128, P0335, P0336 are not set.
  2. The engine speed is between 450-5,800 RPM.
  3. The IAT Sensor parameter is between -20 to +125°C (-4 to +257°F).
  4. The ECT Sensor parameter is between 69-125°C (156-257°F).
  5. This DTC runs continuously when the above conditions are met.

The engine control module (ECM) detects that the actual measured airflow from the MAF, MAP, and throttle position sensors are not within range of the calculated airflow that is derived from the system of models for more than 0.5 s.

DTCs P0101 and P1101 are Type B DTCs.

DTCs P0101 and P1101 are Type B DTCs.

  1. Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components: The secondary ignition wires or coils Any solenoids Any relays Any motors
  2. Any type of contamination on the MAF sensor heating elements will degrade the proper operation of the sensor. Certain types of contaminants act as a heat insulator, which will impair the response of the sensor to airflow changes. Water or snow can create the opposite effect, and cause the signal to increase rapidly.
  3. Inspect the hydro-carbon (HC) absorber in the air cleaner assembly for ruptures that would leak charcoal into the air intake, contaminating the sensing element.
  4. A steady or intermittent high resistance of 15 ohms or greater on the ignition 1 voltage circuit will cause the MAF sensor signal to be increased by as much as 60 g/s. To pinpoint this condition perform a voltage drop test on the circuit.
  5. Depending on the current ambient temperature, and the vehicle operating conditions, a MAF sensor signal circuit that is shorted to the IAT signal circuit will increase or decrease the MAF sensor signal that is interpreted by the ECM. Additionally it may cause a rapid fluctuation in the IAT Sensor parameter.
  6. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.
  7. A skewed or stuck engine coolant temperature (ECT) or IAT sensor will cause the calculated models to be inaccurate and may cause this DTC to run when it should not. Refer to «Temperature Versus Resistance»(/chevrolet/camaro/v-2009-2013/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-and-fuel-62l-specifications__temperature-versus-resistance) .
  8. Certain aftermarket air filters may cause this DTC to set.
  9. Certain aftermarket air induction systems may cause this DTC to set.
  10. Modifications to the air induction system may cause this DTC to set.

MAF Sensor

The mass air flow (MAF) sensor is integrated with the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. The MAF sensor is an air flow meter that measures the amount of air entering the engine. The engine control module (ECM) uses the MAF sensor signal to provide the correct fuel delivery for all engine speeds and loads. A small quantity of air entering the engine indicates a deceleration or idle condition. A large quantity of air entering the engine indicates an acceleration or high load condition.

The ECM applies 5 V to the MAF sensor on the MAF sensor signal circuit. The sensor uses the voltage to produce a frequency based on the inlet air flow through the sensor bore. The frequency varies within a range of near 2,000 Hz at idle to near 9,700 Hz at maximum engine load.

  1. The engine is running for greater than 1 s.
  2. The engine speed is greater than 300 RPM.
  3. The ignition 1 signal is greater than 8 V.
  4. The above conditions are met for greater than 1 s.
  5. These DTCs run continuously when the above conditions are met.

P0102

The ECM detects that the MAF Sensor parameter is less than 1,126 for greater than 5 s.

P0103

The ECM detects that the MAF Sensor parameter is greater than 14,500 Hz for greater than 5 s.

DTCs P0102 and P0103 are Type B DTCs.

DTCs P0102 and P0103 are Type B DTCs.

  1. Verify the integrity of the air induction system by inspecting for the following conditions: Any water intrusion in the induction system Any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor Damaged components
  2. Verify that any electrical aftermarket devices are properly connected and grounded.

MAP Sensor

The intake flow rationality diagnostic provides the within-range rationality check for the mass air flow (MAF), manifold absolute pressure (MAP), and the throttle position sensors. This is an explicit model-based diagnostic containing 4 separate models for the intake system.

  1. The throttle model describes the flow through the throttle body and is used to estimate the MAF through the throttle body as a function of barometric pressure (BARO), throttle position sensor, intake air temperature (IAT), and estimated MAP. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the MAF Performance Test parameter.
  2. The first intake manifold model describes the intake manifold and is used to estimate MAP as a function of the MAF into the manifold from the throttle body and the MAF out of the manifold caused by engine pumping. The flow into the manifold from the throttle uses the MAF estimate calculated from the above throttle model. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the MAP Performance Test 1 parameter.
  3. The second intake manifold model is identical to the first intake manifold model except that the MAF sensor measurement is used instead of the throttle model estimate for the throttle air input. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the MAP Performance Test 2 parameter.
  4. The fourth model is created from the combination and additional calculations of the throttle model and the first intake manifold model. The information from this model is displayed on the scan tool as the Throttle Position Performance Test parameter.

The estimates of MAF and MAP obtained from this system of models and calculations are then compared to the actual measured values from the MAF, MAP, and the throttle position sensors and to each other to determine the appropriate DTC to fail. The following table illustrates the possible failure combinations and the resulting DTC or DTCs.

DTC P0106 is a Type B DTC.

  1. A wide open throttle (WOT) acceleration from a stop should cause the MAP sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly to near the BARO parameter at the time of the 1-2 shift.
  2. A skewed or stuck engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor or IAT sensor will cause the calculated models to be inaccurate and may cause this DTC to run when it should not. Refer to «Temperature Versus Resistance»(/chevrolet/camaro/v-2009-2013/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-and-fuel-62l-specifications__temperature-versus-resistance) .
  3. The barometric pressure (BARO) that is used by the ECM to calculate the air flow models is initially based on the MAP sensor at the ignition ON. When the engine is running, the ECM will continually update the BARO value near WOT using the MAP sensor and a calculation. A skewed MAP sensor will cause the BARO value to be inaccurate.

MAP Sensor

The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor measures the pressure inside the intake manifold. Pressure in the intake manifold is affected by engine speed, throttle opening, air temperature, and barometric pressure (BARO). A diaphragm within the MAP sensor is displaced by the pressure changes that occur from the varying load and operating conditions of the engine. The sensor translates this action into electrical resistance. The MAP sensor wiring includes 3 circuits. The engine control module (ECM) supplies a regulated 5 V to the sensor on a 5 V reference circuit. The ECM supplies a ground on a low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal voltage to the ECM, relative to the pressure changes, on the MAP sensor signal circuit. The ECM converts the signal voltage input to a pressure value.

Under normal operation the highest pressure that can exist in the intake manifold is equal to BARO. This occurs when the vehicle is operated at wide-open throttle (WOT) or when the ignition is ON while the engine is OFF. Under these conditions, the ECM uses the MAP sensor to determine the current BARO. The lowest manifold pressures occur when the vehicle is idling or decelerating. MAP can range from 10 kPa (1.5 psi), when pressures are low, to as much as 104 kPa (15.1 psi) when pressures are high, depending on the BARO. The ECM monitors the MAP sensor signal for pressure outside of the normal range.

ECT Sensor Temperature

The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is a variable resistor that measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 V to the ECT signal circuit and supplies a ground to the low reference circuit.

The ECM uses this high side coolant rationality diagnostic to determine if the input from the ECT sensor is skewed warmer than normal. The internal clock of the ECM will record the amount of time the ignition is OFF. If the calibrated ignition OFF time is met at start-up, the ECM will compare the temperature difference between the ECT and the intake air temperature (IAT), to determine if the temperatures are within an acceptable operating range of each other.

  3. With the power-up IAT greater than -7°C (+19°F), the ECM detects a temperature difference at power-up that indicates that the ECT sensor is 20°C (36°F) greater than the IAT sensor. Then the vehicle must be driven for greater than 6 min and 40 s at greater than 40 km/h (25 mph). If the IAT sensor then decreases greater than 4°C (7°F), an engine block heater was detected and the test is aborted. If the IAT sensor does not decrease, an engine block heater was not detected and DTC P0116 will set.

DTC P0116 is a Type B DTC.

ECT Sensor

The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is a variable resistor that measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 V to the ECT sensor signal circuit and supplies a ground to the low reference circuit.

The purpose of this diagnostic is to analyze the performance of the thermostat by using the ECT sensor to determine if the engine coolant will increase at the correct rate, and also to meet the calibrated target temperatures under various operating conditions.

The ECM uses the start-up ECT and the start-up intake air temperature (IAT) to begin the diagnostic calculation. The air flow into the engine is accumulated, and vehicle speed, distance, and engine run time are also factored in, to determine if the ECT does increase normally, and reach the calibrated target temperatures.

  3. The start-up ECT is colder than 70°C (158°F), when the IAT is above 10°C (50°F).
  4. The start-up ECT is colder than 50°C (122°F), when the IAT is below 10°C (50°F).
  5. The engine run time is between 90 s and 22 min.

HO2S Sensor 1 Voltage/HO2S Sensor 2 Voltage

The heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) are used for fuel control and catalyst monitoring. Each HO2S compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content of the exhaust stream. When the engine is started, the control module operates in an Open Loop mode, ignoring the HO2S signal voltage while calculating the air-to-fuel ratio. While the engine runs, the HO2S heats up and begins to generate a voltage within a range of 0-1,275 mV. Once sufficient HO2S voltage fluctuation is observed by the control module, Closed Loop is entered. The control module uses the HO2S voltage to determine the air-to-fuel ratio. An HO2S voltage that increases toward 1,000 mV indicates a rich fuel mixture. An HO2S voltage that decreases toward 0 mV indicates a lean fuel mixture.

The heating elements inside each HO2S heat the sensor to bring the sensor up to operating conditions faster. This allows the system to enter Closed Loop earlier and the control module to calculate the air-to-fuel ratio sooner.

HO2S Sensor 1 Voltage, HO2S Sensor 2 Voltage

The heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) are used for fuel control and catalyst monitoring. Each HO2S compares the oxygen content of the surrounding air with the oxygen content of the exhaust stream. When the engine is started, the control module operates in an Open Loop mode, ignoring the HO2S signal voltage while calculating the air-to-fuel ratio. While the engine runs, the HO2S heats up and begins to generate a voltage within a range of 0-1,275 mV. Once sufficient HO2S voltage fluctuation is observed by the control module, Closed Loop is entered. The control module uses the HO2S voltage to determine the air-to-fuel ratio. An HO2S voltage that increases toward 1,000 mV indicates a rich fuel mixture. An HO2S voltage that decreases toward 0 mV indicates a lean fuel mixture.

The heating elements inside each HO2S heat the sensor to bring the sensor up to operating conditions faster. This allows the system to enter Closed Loop earlier and the control module to calculate the air-to-fuel ratio sooner.

The engine control module (ECM) controls the air/fuel metering system in order to provide the best possible combination of driveability, fuel economy, and emission control. The ECM monitors the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) signal voltage and adjusts the fuel delivery based on the signal voltage while in Closed Loop. A change made to the fuel delivery changes the long and short term fuel trim (FT) values. The short term FT values change rapidly in response to the HO2S voltage signals. These changes fine tune the engine fueling. The long term FT makes coarse adjustments in order to maintain an optimum air/fuel ratio. The ideal FT values are around zero percent. A positive FT value indicates that the ECM is adding fuel in order to compensate for a lean condition. A negative FT value indicates that the ECM is reducing the amount of fuel in order to compensate for a rich condition.

The engine control module (ECM) uses information from the crankshaft position sensor in order to determine when an engine misfire is occurring, and uses information from the camshaft position sensor in order to determine which cylinder is misfiring. By monitoring variations in the crankshaft rotation speed for each cylinder, the ECM is able to detect individual misfire events. If the ECM detects a misfire rate sufficient to cause emission levels to exceed mandated standards, DTC P0300 sets. Under certain driving conditions, a misfire rate can be high enough to cause the catalytic converter to overheat, possibly damaging the converter. The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will flash ON and OFF when catalytic converter overheating conditions are present and DTC P0300 is set. DTCs P0301-P0308 corresponds to cylinders 1-8. If the ECM is able to determine that a specific cylinder is misfiring, the DTC for that cylinder will also set.

The ECM detects a crankshaft rotation speed variation indicating a misfire rate sufficient to cause emissions levels to exceed mandated standards.

DTC P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0307, or P0308

The ECM detects a crankshaft rotation speed variation indicating a single cylinder misfire rate sufficient to cause emissions levels to exceed mandated standards.

  1. DTCs P0300-P0308 are Type B DTCs.
  2. When the MIL is flashing the fuel injector may be disabled for the misfiring cylinder to protect the catalytic converter.
  3. Depending on the conditions that set the DTC, the engine may go into Open Loop.
  1. DTCs P0300-P0308 are Type B DTCs.
  2. The DTC must run and pass under the same operating conditions that were present when the DTC failed.
  1. The Crankshaft Position System Variation Learn procedure may need to be performed.
  2. Ensure that each fuel injector is connected to the proper fuel injector harness connector.
  3. A misfire may only occur when the engine is operating under a load or when the engine is cold.
  4. A high resistance condition on any ignition control circuit can cause an engine misfire P0300-P0308 DTC to set without setting an ignition control circuit P0351-P0358 DTC.
  5. This test procedure requires that the vehicle battery has passed a load test and is completely charged. Refer to «Battery Inspection/Test»(/chevrolet/camaro/v-2009-2013/remont/charging-system/#battery-charging-system-and-starting-system) .
  6. A misfire DTC could be caused by an excessive vibration from sources other than the engine. Inspect the following for possible sources of vibration: A tire or wheel that is out of round or balance Variable thickness brake rotors An unbalanced drive shaft Certain rough road conditions Transmission operation A damaged accessory drive component or belt; remove the belt and safely operate the engine to evaluate A damaged reluctor wheel

  3. Observe the Cylinder 1-8 Current Misfire Counters with a scan tool. The Current Misfire Counters should not be incrementing. Random misfires that are not steadily incrementing may be normal.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify that the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

Note. You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.

  1. Verify that the following conditions do not exist: The fuel injector wire harness electrical connectors are connected to the wrong fuel injectors. Refer to «Engine Controls Schematics»(/chevrolet/camaro/v-2009-2013/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-and-fuel-62l-wiring-schematic-diagrams) . Engine vacuum leaks Fuel pressure that is too low or too high-Refer to «Fuel System Diagnosis»(/chevrolet/camaro/v-2009-2013/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-and-fuel-62l-troubleshooting-diagnosis) . Contaminated fuel-Refer to «Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Special Tool)»(/chevrolet/camaro/v-2009-2013/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-and-fuel-62l-troubleshooting-diagnosis) or «Alcohol/Contaminants-in-Fuel Diagnosis (Without Special Tool)»(/chevrolet/camaro/v-2009-2013/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-and-fuel-62l-troubleshooting-diagnosis) .
