C3608 Renault 45 Hp OBD Code

OBD/2 C3608 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.
The test fails when the camshaft timing exceeds a maximum calibrated value or remains in an advanced position. 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) C3608 DTC is a check of the VCT unit.

Circuit High Input codes like C3608 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.

If your abs hydraulic pump motor circuit short to battery check engine light is illuminated, it's best to take it in for diagnostic testing, which can feel like a hassle. Because while the lights vary in appearance from vehicle to vehicle, all have the same basic meaning: There's a problem with the car's emissions system. The on-board diagnostics system C3608 and engine control unit are in charge of monitoring a bunch of different abs hydraulic pump motor circuit short to battery, and if they get a reading that's a little out of whack, up pops the check engine light.

Common Causes of Renault 45 Hp C3608 OBD2 Code

A common cause of code C3608 is the failure of ABS Hydraulic Pump Motor Circuit Short To Battery, but there are several other possible causes as well, such as ;

Camshaft advance mechanism binding (VCT unit)
Erratic camshaft position due to low oil pressure
Failures of clutch motion/travel sensors.
Ignition coils harness is open or shorted

C3608 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.
