Trouble code P1656 means:Oil control valve OCV circuit malfunction bank 1
ocv is located in front of engine on passanger side of car sticking uo through valve cover has 2 pin black connector hope this help
The oil control valves (OCV) are located between the cylinders on the drivers side. Bank 1 OCV is below the throttle body. Bank 2 is above the starter.
The oil control valve (OCV) on a 2000 Toyota Echo regulates the flow of oil to the variable valve timing (VVT) system, which optimizes engine performance and efficiency. It adjusts the timing of the intake and exhaust valves based on engine speed and load, improving power delivery and fuel economy. If the OCV malfunctions, it can lead to poor engine performance, decreased fuel efficiency, and increased emissions. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of a faulty OCV are essential for maintaining optimal engine operation.
The OCV 's are on the front of each cylinder head towards the intake plenum www.lextechautomotivellc.com
