Kia Stinger CK: Engine Control System / E-CVVT motor

Components and components location
Components

Appearance of E-CVVT is similar to that of hydraulic CVVT. Connector that drives DC motor and protection cover that protects the motor are mounted on the upper part. DC motor that drives the CVVT is mounted inside and covering part is sealed in order to protect oil from flowing inside.

Description and operation
Description

E-CVVT (Electric Continuous Variable Valve Timing) system, located on the intake camshaft of the engine, uses motor rotation to control the rotation angle of camshaft relative to the rotation of crankshaft regardless of engine pressure. E-CVVT controls the DC motor current (duty signal) to more closely control the system compared to the previous pressure type, to increase reaction speed of cam, to improve startability, and to reduce the emission of exhaust gas. Also, operation range of intake valve (valve opening angle) is expanded. So, the output and fuel efficiency are improved.

Repair procedures
Removal
1.

Remove the E-CVVT.

(Refer to Engine Mechanical system - "CVVT & Camshaft")

Installation
1.

Mount the E-CVVT.

(Refer to Engine Mechanical system - "CVVT & Camshaft")

Adjustment
  

After replacing or remounting the E-CVVT assembly, be sure to reset the learned value from the additional feature menu on the KDS diagnostic device.

When the learned value for electronic cam position is erased, start learning the cam position while cranking. The engine can start once this is completed.

Cranking should be repeated for up to 2-3 times to complete learning.

Troubleshooting
Signal Waveform

There is no separate sensor inside E-CVVT. Valve timing is calculated by applying 4-flank type target wheel on the exhaust side and comparing CKPS and CMPS.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Releasing the parking brake

To release the EPB (electronic parking brake), press the EPB switch while doing the following: Have the ignition switch or engine start/stop button in the ON position. Depress the brake pedal. The shift lever must be in P (Park). Make sure the brake warning light goes off. To release EPB (electronic parking brake) automatically: Shift lever in P (Park) With the engine running depress the brake pedal and shift out of P (Park) to R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
