Walker Products Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid P/N:590-1077
Restore precise camshaft timing control with the Walker Products Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid 590-1053. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2009 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2006-2010 Kia Optima, and 2007-2010 Kia Rondo (all V6-2.7L). Walker builds this as an OE-replacement solenoid that regulates the flow of pressurized oil to the cam phaser / VVT sprocket, letting the engine adjust valve timing to real-time load and speed conditions.
Connection is through a single black oblong female connector with two male blade terminals, plus one mounting hole. Signs a VVT solenoid may need replacing include timing-related fault codes (e.g., P0010–P0014, P0020–P0024), rough idle, hesitation, or reduced power; diagnose the cause first, and if a clogged, stuck, or electrically failed solenoid is at fault, this replaces it. Country of origin: China.
