rear end or replace camshaft. Refer to 

EM-197,

"Removal and Installation"

.

7.

CHECK TIMING CHAIN INSTALLATION

Check service records for any recent repairs that may cause timing chain misalignment.

Are there any service records that may cause timing chain misalignment?

YES

>> Check timing chain installation. Refer to 

EM-194, "Inspection"

.

NO

>> GO TO 8.

8.

CHECK LUBRICATION CIRCUIT

Perform “Inspection of Camshaft Sprocket (INT) Oil Groove”. Refer to 

EM-200, "Inspection"

.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> Clean lubrication line.

Component Inspection

INFOID:0000000010702887

1.

CHECK INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE-1

1.

Turn ignition switch OFF.

2.

Disconnect intake valve timing control solenoid valve harness connector.

3.

Check resistance between intake valve timing control solenoid valve terminals as per the following.

CHECK INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE-2

1.

Remove intake valve timing control solenoid valve.

2.

Provide battery voltage between intake valve timing control sole-
noid valve terminals 1 and 2, and then interrupt it. Check that the
plunger moves as shown in the figure. 

CAUTION:

Never apply battery voltage continuously for 5 seconds or
more. Doing so may result in damage to the coil in intake
valve timing control solenoid valve.
NOTE:
Always replace O-ring when intake valve timing control solenoid
valve is removed.

P0014 EVT CONTROL

DTC Description

INFOID:0000000010702888

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• Crankshaft position sensor
• Exhaust valve timing control position sensor
• Exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve
• Accumulation of debris to the signal plate of the camshaft
• Timing chain installation
• Foreign matter caught in the oil groove for exhaust valve timing control

FAIL-SAFE

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK DTC PRIORITY

If DTC P0014 is displayed with DTC P0078, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0078.

Is applicable DTC detected?

YES

>> Perform diagnosis of applicable. Refer to 

ECM-173, "DTC Description"

.

NO

>> GO TO 2.

2.

PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK

NOTE:
• Use component function check to check the overall function of Exhaust valve timing control. During this

check, a 1st trip DTC might not be confirmed.

• If the cause is a temporal jamming of debris, it may be back to normal during the following procedure.
1.

Check service records for any recent repairs that may cause timing chain misalignment. If there are,
check timing chain installation first.

2.

Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.

3.

Set the oscilloscope probe between ECM and ground.

4.

Record the wave pattern of the crankshaft position sensor signal and the exhaust valve timing control
position sensor signal at idling.

5.

Record the wave pattern of the crankshaft position sensor signal and the exhaust valve timing control
position sensor signal when the accelerator pedal is depressed quickly.

DTC No.
