I purchased a Bluedriver DTC reader and came up with P0012 "A" Camshaft Position-Timing Over Retarded Bank1.
I am having trouble locating a schematic showing me where this is located .

It is also telling me to replace variable camshaft timing (VCT) solenoid. Is this the same as listed above?

Basically the truck has a rough idle and stalls out when the vehicle stops. Also, I have noticed significant engine power loss.

I am attaching all the info for this code and the locations of everything. Please run through the testing just to confirm this is the issue and then the location of the solenoid is shown as well.

Let us know if you have more questions and what you find. Thanks
