Toyota Code P1367 – Open/Low/High “E” Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit, Bank 2

Posted by

Toyota P1367 Code Description

The P1367 code for Toyota vehicles indicates a problem with the camshaft position actuator “E” circuit on bank 2, which is typically the engine side containing cylinder number 2. This code means there is an open, low, or high circuit issue with the camshaft position actuator, which can lead to engine timing and performance problems. The camshaft position actuator is responsible for adjusting the camshaft timing, which in turn affects the intake and exhaust valve opening and closing times. If this circuit is not functioning properly, it can result in poor engine performance, reduced fuel efficiency, and potentially engine misfires.

Common Causes of Toyota P1367 Code

NOTE: The listed causes may not be a complete list of all potential issues, and there may be other causes.

  1. Faulty camshaft position actuator.
  2. Wiring or connector issues in the camshaft position actuator circuit.
  3. Corrosion or damage to the camshaft position actuator.
  4. Problems with the engine control module (ECM) programming.
  5. Mechanical issues with the camshaft itself.

Symptoms of Toyota P1367 Code

  1. The Check Engine light is illuminated on the dashboard.
  2. Engine misfires or hesitation during acceleration.
  3. Rough idling or stalling.
  4. Decreased fuel efficiency.
  5. The engine may run unevenly or erratically.

How to Fix Toyota P1367 Code

  1. Start by inspecting the wiring and connectors of the camshaft position actuator circuit for any damage or corrosion. Repair or replace as necessary.
  2. Test the camshaft position actuator for proper operation and replace it if faulty.
  3. Clear the diagnostic codes and reset the ECM to see if the issue recurs.
  4. If the problem persists, consider checking the camshaft itself for any mechanical issues that may be causing the fault.
  5. Recheck the system for any remaining issues and ensure the camshaft position actuator circuit is functioning correctly.
