DTC P0016:00: Notes

DTC P0016:00	CKP-CMP correlation
DETECTION CONDITION	The PCM monitors the input pulses from the CKP sensor and CMP sensor. If the input pulse pick-up timing do not match each other, the PCM determines that the camshaft position does not coincide with the crankshaft position. Diagnostic support note This is a continuous monitor (CCM). The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM. PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle. FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2)/Snapshot data is available. The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE	CMP sensor malfunction Connector or terminal malfunction Foreign material on CMP sensor Damaged or scratched CMP sensor pulse wheel CKP sensor malfunction Connector or terminal malfunction Foreign material on CKP sensor Damaged or scratched CKP sensor pulse wheel PCM connector or terminal malfunction Improper valve timing PCM malfunction
