There are TONS of videos on this subject, I found yours first and you were so informative I dont need to watch any other video. Great job explaining everything and showing the solenoid and switch even though its in tight quarters!!
This video unlike some of the others makes it clear there are two major components to this circuit. Thank you!
Glad it helped out and thank you for the feedback
Yess. Been searching for good videos that explains more and it saved me a lot 👌
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow thank you sir 👌 earned you a sub 🙂
@@mgb... awesome! Really appreciate that. Thanks
Just got one of these taking a small S-corner pretty tight. Just a tad overdue for an oil change. Oil light functions but it didn't come on. Hoping it's just low oil and sloshing around triggered it. Thanks for the vid, most def.

Very useful video, thanks! Many threads out there state that for the P0028 it is never the solenoid. Well, in my case it was. After a lot of work, including an oil flush and testing the switches, I finally swapped the solenoids and the code flipped from P0028 and P0026. Ordered a new solenoid from Amazon for $30 and the error code is gone. To replace the driver's side solenoid, you have to unbolt the camshaft sensor bracket that is in the way, at the end of this video. 10 mm bolt and some wiggling of the sensor bracket needed. After that, just wiggle out the solenoid, put in a new one. Can by a 15 minute job.
facing this problem P0026 code and i believe it’s the passenger solenoid. my car is junk so i’m trying to swap the solenoid from drivers to other
Have a 2007 forester with code P0026. This video was very helpful to show what i'm getting myself into for DIY. Will give it a shot, thanks!!
I watch your video and car doctor, both u were right on, like your video little better but both you guys very smart , make me look like real mechanic
Great video. Step by step followed & had the exact same problem. Thank you!
Awesome! Glad it helped out. Thanks for dropping a comment
Just a heads up... @ 2:12 you say going over to the passenger side you're actually going to the driver side (Bank 2)!
oops! Brain fart
Just had the 28 code pop, had no leaks and full/clean oil and was concerned it was going to be more money I didn't have to throw at the car lol. Thankfully it's a cheap replacement and fairly easy to do. Just hoping that's my issue with it being a common issue
Thank you. You are the GOAT.
was driving and heard a bang and car cut out. Thought no petrol but when got car home and tested it I got the 28 code. Car does not start. All the videos I’ve watched all of them has an engine that starts so is mine worse? Camshaft actuator issue the computer says
Great video! Thank you!
Just cracked the head installing a new pressure switch, it barely took anything at all. People without much wrenching knowledge need to be very careful changing these!
ouch! im sorry to hear that. Yes, torquing fasteners properly by hand takes takes some experience.
I wonder if there is a torque spec on this sensor
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow not sure, the thing cracked when it wasn't even halfway as threaded on as the old one was! Luckily there's a repair kit that basically involves tapping a larger hole, apparantly cracking is common around my year (2007)

I know this is an old video and would appreciate some feedback if possible, recently got a p0026 code. Oil full, clean and under 2k on recent change. My question is I noticed when I turn my ignition to “on” position these solenoids clearly actuate and click, should this be the case? Or would this be a wiring issue.
This guy sounds exactly like Steve Letarte
On the test how do you know which leads is positive and which lead is negative on the solenoid
Gonna try this on gfs car, thank you for the help
I’m getting both p0028 and p0026
awesome job, great video. thank you sir.
That’s the easy one bank one is easy
Outstanding video--thanks!
Changed both censors and switches plus oil change when one was done about a month prior. Code switched from p0026 to p0028. Code keeps coming back. Any idea what to try next?
Great video dude, thanks!
How can you remove the solenoid sensor on bank 2 ?
hi. thank you for the video. very helpful.
sorry for the silly q: why does that oil pressure switch have high resistance?
I'm surprised no one answered this... The oil switch is failing internally. Usually a seal fails allowing fluid in, and causes the resistance. Hope that answers your question.
Would this potentially cause an intermittent starting issue? Could a bad starter kill these?
I have an Outback that has been intermittently been turning without starting. Got a new starter to swap, but check engine came on and OBD tells me P0026, so now I'm not sure which to replace first between starter and sensor.
Can I get some clarification on the banks? In the beginning of the video you say bank one is the passenger side. But throughout the rest of the video you keep referring to bank 1 as the drivers side.
I noticed that too I think he just got mistaken. I went back and watched it a couple times
I know there are 2 VVTs for both banks but are there 2 OPS'?
Pulling off the interstate and before coming to a complete stop my 2010 subaru impreza started shaking and all the dash lights went crazy. The car stopped working and wouldn't start again. Towed it home. It threw both codes p0026 and p0028. Changed out both oil sensor switches and topped off the oil. It was a quart low. Had changed it less than 3 months ago. But car still won't start. Any ideas where I go from here? Thanks. Hoping the engine is not seized up. Car has 136k.
Where is the starter relay not the starter fuse?
Is it possible to bypass the drivers side oil pressure switch with a resistor and trick the computer thinking it’s there? Or would that not work since it changes?
Please where is the location of camshaft sensor as well as the oil pressure switch in tribeca B9 2006
Hey buddy thanks for the video for my car the code is the same but the check engine light traction and cruise is not going away any suggestions?
No problem. And if you cleared them and they keep coming back then you must have another issue. Need to scan the codes and diagnose
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow yes I have done that
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I have a 04 legacy I put a sensor in but the mechanic said to drive the car for a day and drive it more it’s like the turbo isn’t kicking in
Got you. Sounds like it needs further diagnosis
@@tylercool2964 Did you ever figure out what the problem was?
Great video
Im only getting a code for bank 2 but it seems testing both bank 1 and bank 2 solenoids im not getting any click sound. Im hooking alligator clip to the solenoid and then to ground, and another one from the solenoid and tapping on the battery positive. The battery is disconnected from the vehicle though.
Little update, i tested everything the the battery connected to the car and now both solenoids work just fine. Found out that it was just the sensor switch and my wifes car is still bogging down because the power steering pump is binding and causing the accessory belt to stop turning
When you check resistance on the switch did you check it when the engine is running?
I see this is an old question, but in case it helps somebody else... It absolutely does not matter if the car is running, key on engine off, key off, battery unhooked (as long as you don't use the negative terminal as your ground).
Hey Chris, My passenger side pressure switch - has oil on the sides - I clean it and it comes back - is it possible that oil can come up through the switch and out the electrical connection? Thee are no codes - and engine runs fine, but it has that oil leak.
Hey. yes that can happen
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Chris - it leaked for 8 years and worked fine, but finding the oil drip was driving me crazy - I had no idea it was up top from the sensor. Changed it out and it's dry as a bone! thanks!!
Awesome! It's pretty rare to see sensors leak through but it does happen. Glad to hear you got it taken care of and I appreciate you updating. Thanks! Your comments may also help somebody else out in the future.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow The leak came from under the plastic ring, not the electrical connection as I thought . There's a hole there - maybe a breather of sorts - that was the leak. Oil was blowing through under pressure. Thanks again.
@@cheskybaba4864 oh gotya. ok thx!
I watch your video and I was able to replace the VVT solenoid on bank 1 and two oil sensors on bank 1 and bank 2. I tried to replace the VVT solenoid on bank 2 , but my 10 mm socket is not able to reach the 10 mm bolt due to the cam sensor bracket.
I had the same issue. Instead of removing the belt housing, I used a dremmel and made space for the socket. (Someone that doesn't work on cars designed this. Lol)
@@emmahaskell8644 Yup. I did the same thing
Great great video
Can a vvt solenoid cause a misfire??
So if I take my 2008 Impreza with both those codes to mechanic how much would I be planning on spending?
I get that type of question a lot. Unfortunately it's not one I can answer. Prices vary so dramatically from region to region and depending on what type of mechanic or shop you bring it to. If you plan on just shotgunning it in replacing parts then you can call a few different jobs for a quote on doing so. Otherwise, most shops charge at least $100 off the rip just to diagnose the problem in suggest what repairs may be needed
Well each of the vvt solonoid from auto zone cost about $110 each. You need 2. The oil pressure switch/ sensors were $12 each, you need 2. I did the work myself. I would estimate with parts a auto shop would probably charge around $350.
Great video! Btw, that cam position sensor is a bitch to get out!
No need with a Dremmel my friend : )
I have a 3.0 v6 with p0028, it is the rear oil sensor on the driver's side? I changed the solenoid, LF but have same code.
Hi I have a question if want to answer. I just did my head gaskets. Now the vvt solenoid on drivers side is blowing oil. Would you know why that might happen?
What if the connector doesn't have 12v going to it? Bank 1 has 12v but bank 2 is only getting 1v. Solenoids and switches are working fine, just no power.
I’m having the same issue have you figured it out
@@emiliogamez9062 I solved it by selling the car. It was too big of a pain with all it's electrical issues.
Thumbs up 👍
That’s bank two
Can you refer to which part of the video you're talking about? So I can look back to see.
The one you calling bank 2 in the video is bank one in the back of the engine. Bank two is on the front of the engine
Do you think too much oil could pop this code?
I suppose if the oil got very aerated yeah maybe
I have same car. Please send me link where to order all these parts
Is the P0028 the passenger side?
Driver side
So would the error code p0026 (bank 1) be located on the driver side or passenger side?
P0026 should be passenger side
Thank you and God bless you for taking the time and giving many details!
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever shall believeth in Him shall not perish but have ever lasting life.
you said 'bank 1 driver side.' previously you said Bank 1 is on passenger side.
Bank 2 is driver side
Hi! Do you have a video for code P0301 Cylider 1 Misfire Detected for a 2006 Subaru Impreza. Thank you!
Did you get it figured out yet? It's most likely just a bad spark plug or spark plug wire.
