HINT: Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) may be caused by a damaged fuse. Check the fuse for the power supply to the camshaft reset valve.
Scheme 177
- Start the engine
- Read off the value for the camshaft closing angle and the desired value for the camshaft closing angle
- Active the quick test of camshaft control by clicking the start button
- Increase the engine speed (RPM) to approximately 2500 RPM and keep the engine running at this speed. When the engine speed (RPM) increases, the control module will start the quick test to guide the camshaft to the different target values. During the quick test, check that the closing angle of the camshaft (actual value) corresponds to the desired camshaft closing angle (target value) to an accuracy of ±10°. If the values do not correspond to an accuracy of ±10°, the function is faulty. Deviation between the values can be read off in the lower display. Carry out the check for approximately 15 seconds at an engine speed (RPM) of 2500 RPM. When the desired value is stable once again, the test has been completed. To restart the test, let the engine return to idle speed, then increase the engine speed to approximately 2500 RPM again. The fault is intermittent if the function is OK. NOTE: The test is active until the ignition is switched off. Switch off the ignition before the vehicle is delivered to the customer.
- Continue Refer to «CHECKING COMPONENTS»(ref-466669-S01404158672012042500000)
CHECKING COMPONENTS
Check the engine oil level and quality. Check for contaminants in particular.
Check the engine oil pressure.
Remove the camshaft reset valve. Check the oil ducts for the cylinder head for the camshaft reset valve (intake) for blockages and dirt.
HINT: Faults may result from dirt in the camshaft reset valve. Try cleaning the valve.
Remedy as necessary.
Try a new intake camshaft reset valve if the above remedy does not solve the fault.
HINT: The fault may also have been caused by an internal fault in the variable valve timing unit. The variable valve timing unit may be damaged if the above fault-tracing and corrective action do not remedy the fault.

For variable valve timing control to operate correctly the engine oil must be at the correct level, of the correct quality and not contaminated.
Check the engine oil level and quality. Check for contaminants in particular.
The normal value for adaption is 27°CA (+/-8°CA). If the value is too high when the engine is at operating temperature, the cause of the fault is probably one of the following
- Camshaft belt incorrectly seated
- Incorrect basic setting for the timing belt
- Faulty camshaft reset valve (the slide in the valve has stuck).
HINT: First try adjusting the basic setting of the camshaft. Test drive the car. Then read off the camshaft discrepancy at idle speed with the engine at operating temperature. The value must be between -8° and +8°. If the value is incorrect when the basic setting of the camshaft is correct, try cleaning the camshaft reset valve.
Note. The camshafts must be adjusted using the adjustment tool for the camshafts and crankshaft in the prescribed manner.

Adaptation of the camshaft is carried out by the engine control module (ECM) when the catalytic converter is warmed up, during engine braking (fuel shut-off) above 1300 RPM for at least 10 seconds.
| CAUTION | The test must be performed on a road with minimal traffic. Ensure that applicable traffic regulations are conformed to. |
- Start and run the engine for at least 30 seconds
- Drive the car on the road. Ensure that the conditions for adaptation are met: engine braking (fuel shut-off) above 1300 RPM for at least 10 sec. The conditions can be satisfied for example by driving the car with a high engine load up to approximately 90 km/h and then releasing the accelerator pedal for 10 seconds. Repeat the schedule to ensure that the adaptation is carried out. NOTE: In order for the adaptation to be carried out, the accelerator pedal must not be touched during engine braking.
- Read off the camshaft adaptation after driving. Check that the value for the camshaft adaptation is correct. The normal value is 27°CA (+/-8°CA).
Is the adaptation correct?
- YES VERIFIED: Troubleshooting has been completed.
- NO Refer to «INFORMATION»(ref-466669-S01282353072012042500000)

- Start the engine
- Read off the engine coolant temperature (ECT)
- Start the quick test for adaptation of the camshaft when the engine coolant temperature is between 60 °C and 100 °C
- Increase the engine speed to at least 2000 RPM
- Check that the quick test starts. The quick test has started when "Adaptation camshaft" changes status from "Not in operation" to "In operation". HINT: In some cases the quick test can be carried out extremely quickly. Check the status in the graphic display if in doubt.
- The quick test has been carried out when "Adaptation camshaft" is back in "Not in operation".
- The engine must be at idle speed when the quick test is carried out. Check the value of the camshaft discrepancy (adaptation camshaft) when the quick test has been carried out. The value must be between -8° and +8°. If the value is correct (between -8° and +8°) the fault is intermittent. If the value is incorrect (lower than -8° or higher than +8°), the fault is permanent.
Is the value correct?
- YES Refer to «INTERMITTENT FAULT»(ref-466669-S37784974502012042500000)
- NO Refer to «CHECKING COMPONENTS»(ref-466669-S06783341122012042500000)
For variable valve timing control to operate correctly the engine oil must be at the correct level, of the correct quality and not contaminated.
Check the engine oil level and quality. Check for contaminants in particular.
If the value is too high (higher than +8°) when the engine is at operating temperature, the cause of the fault is probably one of the following
- Camshaft belt incorrectly seated
- Incorrect basic setting for the timing belt
- Faulty camshaft reset valve (the slide in the valve has stuck).
HINT: First try adjusting the basic setting of the camshaft. Then read off the camshaft discrepancy at idle speed after carrying out the quick test. The value must be between -8° and +8°. If the value is incorrect when the basic setting of the camshaft is correct, try cleaning the camshaft reset valve.
Try a new camshaft reset valve if the above fault-tracing does not solve the fault.
Remedy as necessary.
HINT: The fault can also be caused by a damaged variable valve timing unit. The variable valve timing unit may be damaged if the above fault-tracing and corrective action do not remedy the fault.

REPLACING THE COMPONENT
The engine control module (ECM) has registered an internal fault.
If the fault is intermittent, it has been registered previously but is no longer present. Intermittent faults can be caused by interference at start up of the engine control module (ECM) or may be a different type of fault which occurs on different occasions. The fault is evaluated depending on how it occurs. Replace the engine control module (ECM) if the fault recurs.
Replace the engine control module (ECM) in the event of a permanent fault.
Remedy as necessary.

CHECKING BATTERY VOLTAGE
- Start the engine
- Read off the battery voltage and the target value of the generator (GEN) charge voltage
- Load the battery by switching on high current consumers such as high beam and the blower fan etc. Check that the battery voltage is approximately 13.5 -14.9 V. Check that the battery voltage is approximately the same as the target value for the generator (GEN) voltage. Try different engine speeds (RPM). The fault is permanent if the function is incorrect. If the voltage is correct, this is an indication that the fault was present previously but is not active at the moment, i. e. an intermittent fault. HINT: This diagnostic trouble code can be stored if a battery charger with too high charge voltage has been connected.

- Ignition off. Check the generator (GEN) brushes (carbon). If the brushes are worn, replace the alternator control module (ACM). Check that the brushes can move in the regulator housing. The brushes are lightly sprung. At the same time, check the slip rings. Replace the generator (GEN) if they are worn out. If the carbon brushes and slip rings appear to be OK, try a new alternator control module (ACM) (charge regulator). If this does not help, try a new generator (GEN). HINT: Another test to check the alternator's function is to perform Quicktest of alternator function using VIDA or appropriate scan tool. Remedy as necessary.
