well as of today i have every resone to believe its the anti theft . today it did it again but this time the anti theft light on the stereo stayed light up plus it says error and stereo will not come back on . also the sucirety light next to rpm gauge stayed on. i called the dealer but no one there wont’s to take my call .
was there a recall on this system. and if so since im the 3rd owner and was not aware that this car had this issue with this system would the dealer ship have to replace or fix it ?
thanks for the info buddy if the dealer will not fix it i will try it .

That consists of a few different components but the P0012 DTC specifically refers to the camshaft (cam) timing. In this case, if the cam timing is over-retarded, the engine light will be illluminated and the code will be set. The “A” camshaft is either the intake, left, or front camshaft.Most likely a P0012 DTC will result in one of the following: hard starting poor idle and/or stalling There are potentially other symptoms as well. Of course, when trouble codes are set, the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp, a.k.a. the check engine light) illuminates.A P0012 DTC trouble code may be caused by one or more of the following: Incorrect camshaft timing Wiring problems (harness/wiring) in intake timing control valve control solenoid system Continuous oil flow to VCT piston chamber Failed timing valve control solenoid (stuck open)The main thing to check is to verify the operation of the VCT solenoid. You’re looking for a sticking or stuck VCt solenoid valve caused by contamination. Refer to vehicle specific repair manual to perform component tests for the VCT unit.

[quote=”JTF” post=95290]Is the Radio/CD player an aftermarket…maybe with an amplifier wired in?[/quote]
nope the entire car is bone stock all the way to the tire n rim . like i said in my first post though . i have noticed from time to time that the security light next to the rpm gauge comes on not a lot just every so often .[quote=”JTF” post=95290]Is the Radio/CD player an aftermarket…maybe with an amplifier wired in?[/quote]

the weird part is it automatically start right back up on its own . the only way i know the engine dies is the brake peddle will sink to the floor when it does this . other than every thing else cuts off and comes back on . also it happens a lot more often when useing the cd player . fm or tape almost never .
