How to Fix P0016 Trouble Code?
1 Answers
Here are the solutions for the P0016 trouble code: First, check if the timing belt is broken or has jumped a tooth. Inspect the solenoid valve that adjusts the valve timing for any damage. Check whether the oil pressure is normal. Finally, realign the timing. The main causes of the P0016 trouble code are as follows: Fault in the camshaft position sensor itself or its circuit. Fault in the crankshaft position sensor itself or its circuit. Additional information: The crankshaft converts the up-and-down motion of the pistons into rotational motion. The camshaft controls the opening and closing of the valves. The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) continuously monitors the variable camshaft's timing position, checking the relative position between the camshaft and crankshaft. If the misalignment exceeds one tooth, this trouble code will appear.
