The control module detected a fault associated with the Variable Cam Timing Over Retarded Bank 1 circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Jaguar.
The control module detected a fault associated with the Camshaft position (CMP) actuator - timing over retarded circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Land Rover.
The control module detected a fault associated with the Camshaft Position Timing Over Retarded Bank 1 circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Mazda.
The control module detected improper operation of the Ignition circuit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.
The control module detected the fault condition "Break imminent" for the Ancillary drive belt. Documented for the Continental SID 807 injection ECU (DV6C 1.6 HDi) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
