P0012 Jimny m13a engine was created by shkodrov
Hello all,

I bought used Jimny with Check engine error. By VIN this Jimny is with m13a vvt engine. On diagnostic error was P0010. After more researches I found that engine head is replaced with no VVT. Camshaft actuator is missing too, I put 7 ohm resistor on Camshaft actuator connector and everithing works fine for several hours. Now I have error P0012 - Camshaft Position A - Timing Over-Retarded. Is it supported non VVT engine on VVT ECU and how can I turn off any erros for missing VVT components/sensors?

Welcome to the forum. I was under the impression that the 2 were not interchangeable when it came to engine swapping as the ecu pitches a fit. I don't know if anyone has a work around for none vvt head on vvt computer.
