The Camshaft position actuator solenoid controls the exhaust camshaft retard position. From 0 to 25 degrees. It is driven by a pulsed electrical signal from the ECM... much like that of a fuel injector. It is located on the front-passenger's side of the motor... on the head. Removal requires the partial removal of the steering pump. It is prone to failure mainly due to debris in the motor oil that flows into it. An oil change and/or removal of the solenoid actuator to clean of the screens of it can sometimes resolve a related DTC.
