| P0340/12 | Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit (Bank 1 or Single Sensor) |
DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G signal) consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil.
The G signal plate has one tooth on its outer circumference and is installed on the pump drive shaft pulley. When the pump drive shaft pulley rotates, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change, causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force 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 at 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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Note
After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration Click here and initialization Click here.
Tech Tips
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
INSPECT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
Disconnect the D10 sensor connector.
Measure the resistance of the position sensor.

Tech Tips
In the table above, the terms "cold" and "hot" refer to the temperature of the coils. "Cold" means approximately -10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F). "Hot" means approximately 50 to 100°C (122 to 212°F).
