P0013 P0014 Common Causes "Cheapest Fix" VVT Solenoid

In this video, we will go over the most common reasons a p0013 and P0014 code may be set in your car or truck.
So we got a p0013 exhaust camshaft position actuator valve solenoid circuit and a p0014 exhaust camshaft position performance. The most common reason this code will set and cause your check engine light to come on is due to low engine oil. Or oil is not being changed when it should.
So if your engine oil looks low or dirty that is definitely the first thing you going to want to do to try and fix both code P0013 and code P0014.
The next thing you going to want to do is remove both VVT solenoids and test them by supplying power and ground, if it clicks the VVT valve is good.
Before reinstalling both VVT solenoids I would recommend cleaning them with brake clean. In most cases just cleaning VVT solenoids and changing engine oil will be enuff to fix P0013 and P0014.

I know this is an old post, but have to ask. The P0014 code, is that affected by both the intake and exhaust solenoid? As I was previously informed, the rear solenoid (black cap)is the exhaust solenoid for this code, while the front solenoid (grey cap) is the intake solenoid and that code is normally a P0010. I have done the oil change, opened the intake cleaned the PCV port, and replaced the Exhaust solenoid but still get the P0014 code.

I have a Chevy cobalt and at first it said it was the camshaft position sensor. I replaced that and the code p0013 and now p0014 came on now. Gauges are going crazy and drives like crap. Help!!!

Do I need to do a relearn procedure after replacing it? Not using the obd2 but the actual scan tool.

No sir, no relearn needed.
