POSSIBLE CAUSE 

FAIL-SAFE 

Fail safe mode Vehicle behavior
Engine output control ECM reduces the engine output, according to the rise in engine speed. This reduces the vehicle speed to encourage the driver to repair malfunction.
Driving at 70 km/h (43 MPH) or more is possible.
NOTE: This value is a reference value converted from engine power to vehicle speed.

Actual power limitation value differs due to the malfunctioning part and driving condition.
Device fix mode
  • Fixes electric intake valve timing control motor in the reference position.
  • Fixes exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve in the reference position.
