Nissan VCT Solenoid - P/N # 23796-97E0A

The Nissan VCT Solenoid (P/N 23796-97E0A) is a direct-replacement variable cam timing solenoid designed to restore proper engine timing control on compatible Nissan models. The variable cam timing system relies on this solenoid to regulate oil pressure flow to the camshaft phasers, allowing the engine management system to optimise valve timing across different RPM ranges. When this component fails, symptoms can include rough idling, reduced fuel economy, sluggish acceleration, and diagnostic trouble codes related to cam timing performance.

Sourced to OEM specification, this solenoid is matched to the original part number to ensure accurate fitment without modification. Replacing a faulty VCT solenoid with a correctly specified unit is an essential step in maintaining the integrity of your engine's variable valve timing system and avoiding longer-term wear on associated components.
