P002E

Symptoms

• Check Engine light on dashboard
• Reduced power, especially noticeable in V-engines
• Increased fuel consumption
• Possible instability of one row of cylinders
• Deterioration in dynamics during acceleration

Causes

• Open or short circuit in bank 2 camshaft actuator wiring
• Oxidation of the connector of the actuator for changing the profile of the cams of bank 2
• Bank 2 electromagnetic actuator failure
• Insufficient oil pressure in the lubrication system of the head of bank 2
• Engine ECU malfunction

How to Fix

1. Read frozen frame codes and data, compare with bank 1 codes
2. Determine the exact location of bank 2 actuator on this engine
3. Measure the resistance of the actuator winding (the norm is usually 7–15 Ohms)
4. Check the supply voltage and control signal wire from the ECU
