P0016 ERROR CODE: MEANING, SYMPTOMS, CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS (Camshaft Position Correlation). In this video, we will discuss how to fix the P0016 error code and the common causes.
The P0016 means that the camshaft position sensor for Bank 1 is not connecting to the signal from the crankshaft position sensor. Take, for instance, a phone and Wi-Fi network. If the phone cannot connect to the Wi-Fi, some applications are impossible to use since they need the phone to correlate with the Wi-Fi network. In a car, the Camshaft position relays data to the Powertrain Control Module using the signal from the Crankshaft position sensor. If the signal is incorrect, PCM is unable to control the fuel injectors leading to the code being detected.
What are the common signs to look out for when checking for this error?
• The engine may be hesitant to start or run rough. If not fixed, the engine can fail to start entirely.
• The Check Engine Light is illuminated. This sign is in most codes; hence it is best to have a professional check and diagnose the correct code.
• Decrease in fuel mileage or fuel economy.
The following are some of the common causes:
• Faulty camshaft position sensor
• Overextended timing chain
• Mechanical damage, such as glided reluctor ring on the crankshaft or on the bank 1 exhaust camshaft
