Fault criteria: (When enable criteria have been fulfilled, diagnostics will check if the fault criteria have been fulfilled.)


- Ignition timing and injection not synchronized with camshaft position.


Dependents: (Once fault criteria have been fulfilled, a number of other diagnostics must report OK before the diagnostic trouble code can finally be generated.)

System reaction to a fault: (Once the fault criteria have been fulfilled, certain measures will sometimes be taken.)
