Got a P0022 Intake Variable Valve timing bank 2 code today. I am not familiar with what side is bank 1 or 2 or the location of the solenoid. Can someone please give me a location?

thanks

 

year and engine model would help

 

Sorry, 2016 5.0

 

P0022- Intake Camshaft Position Timing - Over-Retarded (Bank 2)

Description: This DTC sets when the variable camshaft timing (VCT) position is over-retarded. This DTC sets when the camshaft timing exceeds a maximum calibrated value or remains in a retarded position.

Possible Causes:

• VCT unit to camshaft alignment
• Camshaft timing incorrectly set
• Continuous oil flow to the VCT piston chamber
• Erratic camshaft position due to low oil pressure
• Oil flow restriction in the oil passages or the VCT valve body
• variable camshaft timing bank 2 solenoid 1 (VCT21) valve stuck open
• VCT21 circuit open
• VCT21 circuit short to voltage
• VCT21 circuit short to ground
• VPWR circuit open
• Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit)
• Damaged VCT21 phaser
• Damaged camshaft position bank 2 sensor 1 (CMP21)
• CMP21 sensor circuits open
• CMP21 sensor circuits short to voltage
• CMP21 sensor circuits short to ground
• Radio frequency interference

Diagnostic Aids:
This DTC may be accompanied by other DTCs. Diagnose all camshaft position (CMP) sensor DTCs first. If no CMP sensor related DTCs are present, continue to follow diagnosis for this DTC.
This DTC is a functional check of the VCT unit. Diagnose any base engine concerns related to the engine oil pressure or engine timing. Refer to the Workshop Manual Section 303-00, Engine System, Oil Pressure Test, to check the engine oil pressure. Refer to the Workshop Manual Section 303-01, Engine, to check the engine timing and VCT phasers

 

Thanks for the info. Maybe I missed it. Which side is bank 2? As if you were standing in front of the truck looking at the motor

 

Driver's side

 

Thx

 

Take it in for warranty work if you can!

If its not the selonids its the pahsesers, this is a $2,000 + Job

 

just out of warranty, 40,000 miles. Didn’t know 5.0 L had phasers thought that was the older model trucks. Please educate me.

 

Internal engine has 50000 mile warranty I am pretty sure.
