Camshaft Position Sensor B Circuit Bank 1 Location

Comment on p0365 camshaft position cmp sensor b bank 1 circuit malfunction by sm darby is the engine timed correctly.

Camshaft position sensor b circuit bank 1 location.

Note that the b means that this sensor is located in the exhaust side of the cylinder head. Bank 1 means that the sensor is located in the engine bank with cylinder 1. The camshaft position sensor senses the piston position. So this engine code article applies to.

Et conditions during cranking at least 2 5 seconds have elapsed with a crankshaft position sensor signal present but no camshaft position sensor signal with the engine running. I replaced the o2 sensor the check engine light came on a week later. P0365 meaning the camshaft position sensor is an electronic device used in an engine to record the rate at which the camshaft is spinning. The pcm uses input signals from the camshaft sensor s and the crankshaft sensor to monitor the position and revolutions per minute rpm of these vital engine components manage timing fluctuations and map fuel.

The camshaft position sensor notes the rate at which the camshaft is spinning and helps the car s computer control things like fuel injection and engine timing. Sensor b indicates that the malfunction is occurring with the camshaft position sensor circuit that pertains to the exhaust camshaft. Camshaft position sensor hi all my check engine lite came on a week ago showed o2 sensor bank 1 also showed camshaft position sensor circuit malfunction. Now it shows only the one code p0340 camshaft position sensor circuit malfunction.

This diagnostic trouble code dtc is a generic powertrain code. Camshaft position sensor b circuit bank 1. It is considered generic because it applies to all makes and models of vehicles 1996 newer although specific repair steps may be slightly different depending on the model. When the engine is running the high and low parts of the teeth cause the gap with the sensor to change.

Sensor b indicates that the. Bank 1 represents the bank of the engine that contains the number one cylinder. The sensor system consists of a rotating part typically a disc as well as a static part the actual sensor. The changing gap causes the magnetic field near the sensor to change.

If so you might check for a tsb pertaining to syncing the cmp s and the ckp. What does that mean. I can remember a car that i had to replace the cam sensor and crank sensor as a set from nissan. P0365 description the camshaft position sensor is an electronic device used in an engine to record the rate at which the camshaft is spinning.

This information is used by the engine control module to control ignition and fuel injection the camshaft position sensor senses the retraction of camshaft intake to identify a particular cylinder.
