C3108 Ford 427 OBD Code

OBD/2 C3108 error code description and symptoms.

Variable Cam Timing Over-advanced (Bank 1) The comprehensive component monitor (CCM) monitors the VCT position for an over-advanced camshaft timing.

Cam timing improperly set No oil flow to the VCT piston chamber Low oil pressure VCT solenoid valve stuck closed Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit) C3108 DTC is a check of the VCT unit.

Circuit High Input codes like C3108 are mostly caused by defective alternators that develop excessive voltages, although there may be other causes as well, such as short circuits that 'leak' current into a particular system from other, unrelated systems that work on higher voltages. Note that in the case of short circuits that leak power into a control circuit, there is likely to be other, seemingly unrelated trouble codes present along with the code(s) being investigated. Diagnosing a 'high input' code will always involve a thorough testing of the charging system as a first step, followed by measures to isolate the system from all other possible sources of power during resistance, continuity, and reference voltage tests.

A common cause of code C3108 is the failure of Climate Control A/C Pressure Switch Circuit Short To Battery, but there are several other possible causes as well, such as ;

Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit)
Faulty Intake Valve Timing Control Solenoid Valve
Failures of clutch motion/travel sensors.
Lack of fuel

C3108 is a kind of Chassis Trouble Code

Diagnosing chassis noises can be one of the most frustrating problems technicians face. Fortunately, manufacturers have engineered noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) diagnostic techniques and equipment to find the source of the noise.
