Code P0017 Suzuki Description
The Camshaft Position (CMP) actuator system enables the Engine Control Module (ECM) to change the timing of the camshafts while the engine is operating. The CMP actuator solenoid signal from the ECM is Pulse Width Modulated (PWM). The ECM controls the CMP actuator solenoid duty cycle by controlling the amount of solenoid ON time. The CMP actuator solenoid controls the advance or the retard of each camshaft. The CMP actuator solenoid controls the oil flow that applies the pressure to advance or retard the camshafts.
Ignition voltage is supplied directly to the CMP actuator solenoid. The ECM controls the solenoid by grounding the control circuit with a solid-state device called a driver. The ECM compares the camshaft position or the camshaft angle, to the position of the crankshaft.
The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if the ECM detects a deviation in the relationship between a camshaft and the crankshaft.
