P0010 Ford OBD-II Trouble CodeDescription:
OBD Trouble Code P0010
“A” Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit
What does the code mean? OBD-ii Code P0010 definition:
A P0010 code definition:the VVT (variable valve timing) or VCT (variable camshaft timing) components and the car’s PCM (powertrain control module). That consists of an oil control valve (OCV), also called a solenoid valve and other components. Basically the check engine light and associated P0010 trouble code means that the voltage in the circuit has fallen below a set limit for a specific amount of time (varies by make/model/engine).
