Yip, you are right, code 1380 is electrical to the VCT. Try a quick check of the electrical contacts on the VCT (there are two of them). You should be getting somewhere between 3 and 6 ohm. If it is higher (the one I replaced on mine was showing 9K), the VCT solenoid is shot.

If the VCT resistance is OK, you might want to try a flush, and an oil change.

Let me know how it goes.




I know this might sound stupid, but if it's an electrical how do I fix it? I noticed that the wire for my VCT plug is compleately stripped, cna I buy a new cord from the dealership or should I try to find one off a wreck tour and splice them together? Any help would be greatly appreciated .
