Variable Valve Timing Actuator: Description and Operation
Camshaft Control (CVVT)
Camshaft Control (CVVT)
When the camshaft (A) is set at the factory, it is aligned with the position of the crankshaft (B). The position of the camshaft in relation to the crankshaft
is designated the camshaft 0 position. During camshaft (CVVT) control, the 0 position of the camshaft is advanced so that the opening and closing of the
intake valves can be changed to relative to the camshaft. By controlling the camshaft (the camshaft is regulated from its 0 position) the performance of
the engine is increased, the idle speed quality is improved and the emissions are reduced.
There are diagnostics for this function.
