Camshaft Position Actuator Installation - Right Side Intake

Camshaft Position Actuator Installation - Right Side Intake



1. Ensure the proper camshaft position actuator is installed. Observe the body of the camshaft position actuator for the "IN" marking (3). The marking is for an intake camshaft position actuator.


2.
Warning

Ensure the proper camshaft position actuator is installed in the correct position. Failure to install the proper camshaft position actuator can effect engine performance and set an engine code.


Ensure the proper camshaft position actuator is being installed. The reluctor wheel on the intake camshaft position actuator bank 1 (1) is indexed in a different position compared to the intake camshaft position actuator bank 2 (2).


3. On the intake camshaft actuator bank 1 the edge of the reluctor wheel (1) lines up with the valley (2) of the sprocket tooth.


4. Ensure the proper timing mark is used. Observe the outer ring of the camshaft position actuator for the triangle marking (2). The triangle marking is for alignment to the highlighted timing chain link on the right side of the engine.


5.
Warning

Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners, or fastener joint surfaces, unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems. When using fasteners that are threaded directly into plastic, use extreme care not to strip the mating plastic part(s). Use hand tools only, and do not use any kind of impact or power tools. Fastener should be hand tightened, fully seated, and not stripped.


Install the intake camshaft position actuator bank 1 (2).


6. Refer to Fastener Caution .

Install the intake camshaft position control element bolts row 1 (1) and tighten to 58 Nm (43 lb ft) .
