DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The camshaft position sensors (G1 and G2 signals) consist of a signal plate and a pick up coil. The G1, G2 signal plates each have one tooth on the outer circumference and are built into the distributor. When the camshaft rotates, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pick up coil change, causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pick up coil.
The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G1, G2 signals, detects the actual crankshaft angle and engine speed by the NE signals and detects misfire by NE2 signals.
