    What Does P0630 Mean?

    OBD-II Code P0630 is defined as a VIN not Programmed or Incompatible - ECM/PCM

    The engine control module (PCM) runs software that is based off of the vehicle's Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). If this data is not programmed to the PCM correctly when the PCM is replaced, or becomes corrupt, the PCM will set code P0630.

    What are the common causes of P0630 ?

    The most common cause of this code being stored is that the PCM has been replaced and not reprogrammed to match the vehicle. The only other possible causes are a faulty PCM, shorted or open wiring or connectors. If the battery becomes discharged and the PCM is deprived of voltage for a long period of time, it may need to be reprogrammed. The period of time required for the PCM to completely lose memory varies from one manufacturer to another.

    How do you troubleshoot P0630 ?

    The engine system, in conjuction with the engine control module (ECM)/powertrain control module (PCM), activates the P0630 code solenoid valve to control oil pressure to the engine mechanism that is installed in the valve system to switch valve timing between Low and High.If the engine solenoid valve has an open or short circuit, a DTC is stored.
