Before removing VVT solenoid, listen to it as power is momentarily applied, if clicking heard, then might indicate valve function is good. Possibly save lots of time. Thanks for the good video.
I’m having that exact problem with my 2011 Infiniti m37. I got the P0011 code. Charged camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor. Nothing is wrong with my wiring. Can you tell me me if this the reason I have a stalling problem and how to fix this problem that just started a day ago? Please
@@kusoi4481 still haven’t found out the issue but I really believe it’s the 02 sensor because it regulates air to fuel ratio. The symptoms do seem like fuel to air ratio being off, also the cam sensor isn’t reading the and that regulates wear to send oil where in the block. If I find more just reply
My 16 Kia optima LX 2.4l is throwing this code. It runs fine for the most part but after driving about 40 miles,the initial acceleration will be very sluggish. When I cut the car off then back on, the sluggishness goes away for another 40ish miles
i get over retarded and cylinder 3 misfire on a 2.4 lt 06 camry. new camshaft sensor, had material on the old one, new plugs and coils oil and filter. originally had all cylinders misfiring, lost all the misfire codes but still have p0012 and p0353 coil primary/secondary circuit malfunction. until i saw the tidbit about the VVT solenoid i was all but about to throw in the towel and toss a new camshaft and timing chain kit into it.. turns out the vvt was clogged up so bad it failed. did exactly what he said, checked the only one it has and sure enough failed. ran motor flush through it, changed the oil and filter then installed new vvt solenoid and boom working like a charm. god i was so glad not to have to install a new camshaft
Power Probe circuit tester I use for most of my automotive testing amzn.to/3Ub08zd

So we can use carb cleaner to clean these right?
Tried to get mine out yesterday. It will spin but seems stuck. Is there a trick to getting it out?
How many volts it needs?
12v, 9v battery even might do.
Would this issue cause the smell of gasoline
Maybe …
Mostly it’s controlling the oil ..
but it will affect the fuel consumption
if your getting a fuel smell i would check out the high pressure fuel pump - they are known to fail.

Schaeffer’s oil 👍
@@marioburgos1148 shaeffers oil?
so ..... where is it on the engine ????
On mine which is 07 Yukon it’s behind the water pump
on most vehicles they are somewhere on top of the valve cover
