| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0365 | Camshaft Position Sensor "B" Circuit (Bank 1) |
| P0367 | Camshaft Position Sensor "B" Circuit Low Input (Bank 1) |
| P0368 | Camshaft Position Sensor "B" Circuit High Input (Bank 1) |
DESCRIPTION
The camshaft position sensor (for exhaust camshaft) (EV1 signal) consists of a magnet and MRE (Magneto Resistance Element).
The exhaust camshaft has a timing rotor for the camshaft position sensor. When the camshaft rotates, changes occur in the air gaps between the timing rotor and MRE, which affects the magnetic field. As a result, the resistance of the MRE material fluctuates. The camshaft position sensor converts the camshaft rotation data to pulse signals, uses the pulse signals to determine the camshaft angle, and sends it to the ECM. Then the ECM uses this data to control fuel injection duration, fuel injection timing and Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P0365 | Camshaft Position Sensor "B" Circuit (Bank 1) | No camshaft position sensor (for exhaust camshaft) signal for 5 seconds at an engine speed of 600 rpm or higher (1 trip detection logic). |
|
Comes on | DTC stored |
| P0367 | Camshaft Position Sensor "B" Circuit Low Input (Bank 1) | The output voltage of the camshaft position sensor (for exhaust camshaft) is less than 0.3 V for 4 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic). |
|
Comes on | DTC stored |
| P0368 | Camshaft Position Sensor "B" Circuit High Input (Bank 1) | The output voltage of the camshaft position sensor (for exhaust camshaft) is higher than 4.7 V for 4 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic). |
|
Comes on | DTC stored |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If no pulse signal is transmitted by the camshaft position sensor (for exhaust camshaft) despite the camshaft rotating, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the sensor.
Also, when the sensor output voltage remains at less than 0.3 V, or higher than 4.7 V for 4 seconds or more, the ECM stores a DTC.

| Frequency of Operation | Continuous |
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Start the engine.
Idle the engine for 10 seconds or more [A].
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes [B].
Read the pending DTCs.
Tech Tips
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P0365, P0367 or P0368.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
| N/A |
|
Tech Tips
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform steps [A] and [B] again.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Tech Tips
If no problem is found through this diagnostic troubleshooting procedure, there may be a mechanical problem with the engine.
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. 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 moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
