DESCRIPTION
The VVT sensor (for intake side) (VV1, VV2 signal) consists of a magnet and MRE (Magneto Resistive Element).
The camshaft timing gear assembly has a sensor plate with 3 teeth on its outer circumference. When the gear rotates, changes occur in the air gaps between the sensor plate and MRE, which affects the magnetic field. As a result, the resistance of the MRE material fluctuates. The VVT sensor converts the gear rotation data to pulse signals, uses the pulse signals to determine the camshaft angle, and sends it to the ECM.
The crank angle sensor plate has 34 teeth. The pickup coil generates 34 signals for each engine rotation. Based on combination of the VVT signals and NE signal, the ECM detects the crankshaft angle. Then the ECM uses this data to control fuel injection time and injection timing. Also, based on the NE signal, the ECM detects the engine speed.
DTC No.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If no signal is transmitted by the VVT sensor (for intake side) despite the engine revolving, or the rotations of the camshaft and the crankshaft are not synchronized, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the sensor.
