Intake Valve Timing Control Position Sensor

Intake Valve Timing Control (IVTC) position sensor is located at rear of left cylinder head. This sensor detects intake valve position generated by a cutout portion of camshaft and sends it to ECM. This sensor is not used for engine control. It is only used for on-board diagnosis of the IVTC system. See Fig 1.
