What is the valve number on an Equinox LTZ V6?

The valve is P/N – 12636175. The camshaft position sensor is not likely bad because there are no codes for the sensor. Don’t replace the position sensor, it is most likely working just fine, as it is reporting the misalignment. I am willing to bet the actuator valve is the problem, I have seen this happen many times. Diagram is below.

Why is timing off on my 2010 Equinox?

This is bank 1 so it is the bank of cylinders on the rear of the engine. Also less likely is the recultor wheel on the crank has slipped and is causing timing to be off. That is 99% not the case because if it was you would have codes for all banks. The valve is P/N – 12636175.

What to do if your Chevy Equinox has a trouble code?

This is great for both power and fuel economy. If your Equinox has the P0011 trouble code it will typically not pass the State emissions tests. The Chevy Equinox utilizes camshaft actuators to change the valve lift depending on the RPM of the motor.

Why does my Chevy Equinox not know its crank position?

Even the slightest misalignment can cause P0017. The Crankshaft Sensor is going to use a tone or reluctor ring to determine the position of the Crank. This ring uses notches that are scanned by the Crank Sensor in order to get an accurate position. If this ring fails, the Equinox will not be able to get an exact crank position.

What causes a Chevy Equinox to throw a p0017?

P0017 in the Chevy Equinox is predominantly caused by a few different things. It is typically thrown when the Crankshaft Position Sensor and the Camshaft Position Sensor are out of alignment by a certain number of degrees, or if there is an issue with the wiring, or one of the sensors themselves may have gone bad.
