DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit (Bank 1 or Single Sensor)


DESCRIPTION

The camshaft position sensor (G signal) consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil.
The G signal plate (timing sprocket) has one tooth on its outer circumference and is installed on the camshaft timing chain gear. When the timing gear rotates, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change, causing fluctuations in the magnetic field that generate a voltage in the pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crank angle sensor plate. The NE signal sensor generates 34 signals for every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G signal and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signal.

DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (Click here) and initialization (Click here).
1.INSPECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

  1. Disconnect the E80 sensor connector.

  1. Measure the resistance of the position sensor.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Specified Condition
    1 - 2
    835 to 1,400 Ω at cold
    1 - 2
    1,060 to 1,645 Ω at hot
    HINT:
    In the table above, the terms "cold" and "hot" refer to the temperature of the coils in the sensors. "Cold" means approximately -10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F). "Hot" means approximately 50 to 100°C (122 to 212°F).

  1. Disconnect the E80 sensor connector.

  1. Disconnect the E59 ECM connector.

  1. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Specified Condition
    E80-1 - G+ (E59-80)
    Below 1 Ω
    E80-2 - G- (E59-79)
    Below 1 Ω
    E80-1 or G+ (E59-80) - Body ground
    10 kΩ or higher
    E80-2 or G- (E59-79) - Body ground
    10 kΩ or higher

  1. Check the sensor installation.

    OK:
    Sensor is installed correctly.


NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
OK


4.CHECK CAMSHAFT TIMING SPROCKET
  1. Check the condition of the timing sprocket.

    OK:
    Timing sprocket does not have any cracks or deformation.
