DTC P0340: CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION (CAM)





DESCRIPTION



- The camshaft position sensor is located on the left-hand camshaft support to detect the combustion cylinder at any one moment.
- It is designed so that the Engine Control Module (ECM) accurately reads the number of pulses which occur when protrusions provided on the back of the LH camshaft-drive sprocket cross the sensor.
- Internal construction and the basic operating principle of the camshaft position sensor are similar to those of the crankshaft position sensor. A total of seven protrusions (one each at two locations, two at one location and three at one location) are arranged in four equal parts of the sprocket.


DTC DETECTING CONDITION:
- Immediately at fault recognition

TROUBLE SYMPTOM:
- Engine stalls.
- Failure of engine to start
