How to Fix B1C68
Diagnostic Steps:
The catalytic converter has oxygen sensors before and after it. When warm and in closed-loop mode, the upstream O2 sensor reading should fluctuate, while downstream should remain steady.
Repair Solution:
VSS concerns may stem from noisy input signals caused by RFI/EMI from ignition wires, charging circuits, or aftermarket equipment. Verify VSS reads 0 mph when transmission is in Park.
Technical Notes:
B1C68 DTC specifically relates to camshaft timing. When cam timing is over-retarded, the check-engine light illuminates and this code sets. Verify VCT solenoid operation and check for contamination.
