VVL-Guiding Sensor Parity Error (Bank 1)
Fault Impact
Electrical system voltage terminal 87 >10.0 V
Terminal 15 ON

VVT lead sensor monitor
No faults related to the sensor's voltage supply should be present (fault code 10800)

Warnings
Service Notes
If fault codes (#10801) and (#10802) are simultaneously stored in the fault memory, proceed to check the following:
1. Dual fault is stored when VVT sensor is not connected to the DME. Is VVT sensor connected to the wiring harness?
If not: Plug in and check wiring harness between DME and VVT sensor.
Determine whether the VVT sensor wire shield is grounded at the DME (PIN 7-10) and sensor (PIN 4).
2. Replace VVT sensor.
If only fault code (#10801) is entered:
1. Check signal wire (VVT sensor PIN 1, PIN 3) between VVT sensor and DME for breakage or short circuits and corroded plugs. 2. Determine whether a cycle signal is visible every 1 ms at sensor Pin 1. (Ignition on!). If yes, proceed to Item 3. If no, this signal wire is defective.
3. Determine whether a digital message is being transmitted through DME PIN 7-07 every 1 ms. If yes, proceed to Item 4. If no, this signal wire is defective.
4. Replace VVT sensor.
