Diagnostic Procedures

  1. If FREEZE FRAME DATA has been recorded, go to next step. If FREEZE FRAME DATA has not been recorded, record FREEZE FRAME DATA. Go to next step.
  2. Verify Related Repair Information Availability -  Check for related Service Bulletins and/or on-line repair information availability. If any related repair information is available, perform repair or diagnosis according to available repair information. If vehicle is not repaired, go to next step. If related repair information is not available, go to next step.
  3. Inspect OCV For Malfunction -  Start engine. Increase engine speed. Stop engine. Remove OCV. Inspect position of spool valve in OCV. If spool valve is in retard position, go to next step. If spool valve is not in retard position, replace OCV. After repair, go to step  6.
  4. Inspect Variable Valve Timing Actuator -  Remove timing belt. Inspect Variable Valve Timing (VVT) actuator. If VVT actuator is okay, go to next step. If VVT actuator is faulty, replace VVT actuator, then go to step  6. See VARIABLE VALVE TIMING ACTUATOR under VARIABLE VALVE TIMING in SYSTEM & COMPONENT TESTING - MAZDA6, MIATA, MPV, PROTEGE & PROTEGE5 article.
  5. Inspect Rotor Position -  Remove VVT actuator. If rotor position is at maximum valve timing retard, VVT mechanism is normal. DTC was detected by intermittent concern. Intermittent concern might be removed by cleaning mode of variable valve timing control function. Go to next step. If rotor position is not at maximum valve timing retard, replace VVT actuator. After repair, go to next step.
  6. Verify Trouble Shooting Of DTC P0011 Is Completed -  Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors. Clear DTC from PCM memory using WDS or equivalent. Turn ignition off. Start engine and warm it up completely. If PENDING CODE of same DTC is not present, go to next step. If PENDING CODE of same DTC is present, replace PCM. For PCM removal and installation, see POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE under COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS in REMOVAL & INSTALLATION article. After repair, go to next step.
