DTC P0365: Exhaust Camshaft Position Sensor CircuitExhaust Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit (Part 1):
Exhaust Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit (Part 2):
CIRCUIT OPERATION
- The exhaust camshaft position sensor power is supplied from the ECM (terminal No. 9).
- Terminal No. 2 of the exhaust camshaft position sensor is grounded with ECM (terminal No. 23).
- A 5-volt voltage is applied on the exhaust camshaft position sensor output terminal (terminal No. 3) from the ECM (terminal No. 7). The exhaust camshaft position sensor generates a pulse signal when the output terminal is opened and grounded.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
- The exhaust camshaft position sensor functions to detect the top dead center position of the number 1 cylinder and to convert that data to pulse signals that are input to the ECM.
- When the engine is running, the exhaust camshaft position sensor outputs a pulse signal.
- The ECM checks whether pulse signal is input while the engine is cranking.
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
- Exhaust camshaft position sensor signal does not change.
- Exhaust camshaft position sensor signal is not normal pattern.
