shortysmash Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 ok i got a p1145 code that appears as soon as i turn on the key and when i searched the net i get that its a vtc sensor but i dont know what side. advance said that it is a mass air flow, so know i dont know what to think. if the p1145 is a vtc does someone know what side that is on driver or passenger. also does anyone know what i would have to do to check to see if the vtc sensor is bad or good thanks ashton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmgar99 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Your 2001 FSM says on Page EC-484 that it's the Left Side. I've quoted the page below. You can download your FSM HERE DTC P1140 (RIGHT, -B1), P1145 (LEFT, -B2) INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL POSITION SENSOR (CIRCUIT Component Description NAEC0705 Intake valve advance unit position sensors are located in the front cylinder heads in both right/left banks. This sensor uses a Hall IC (element). The cam position is determined by the intake primary cam sprocket concave (in three places). The ECM provides feedback to the intake valve timing control for appropriate target valve open-close timing according to drive conditions based on detected cam position. CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor Mode NAEC0706 Specification data are reference values. MONITOR ITEM CONDITION SPECIFICATION INT/V TIM (B1) INT/V TIM (B2) I Engine: After warming up I Shift lever “N” I Quickly depressed accelerator pedal I No-load Idle 0° CA 2,000 rpm Approximately 12 - 18° CA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wood Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 1145 is driver's side VTC/solenoid. 1140 is passenger side. I just went through this. If you replace the sensor and are still pulling the same code, you will need to clean or replace your cam solenoid. Assuming this is a 3.5? Not sure if the VQ33 uses the same codes/sensors.

csutke Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) If it has the 3.5 its a 2001.5. Also if you look at the metal plate on the firewall where it has all the specs it will say in what month it was made, and it might also say that on the plate on the drivers side door jam but im not sure about that one.
