1996 Dodge Intrepid camshaft position sensor circuit malfunction

code means... camshaft positioning sensor circuit malfunction. wich boils down to either you camshaft positioning sensor is busted or the wiring is shorting out or connector is dirty

I have a 1999 BMW 740 il My SES light came on so I hooked up my OBD code reader p0340 - Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction is what came up. so I went to the BMW parts department and bought the Camshaft Position Sensor.
I Replaced the with the new. My SES light was still on so I hooked up the OBD reader again hoping it may reset my SES light but it didn't what did happen is the OBD reader came up with the same code (p0340 - Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction) witch is what I just replaced. now I'm at a loss. I'm not sure how to reset my SES light and if I just replaced the Camshaft Position Sensor why dose it the OBD code p0340 still come up. Any suggestions?

P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction

This indicates that a problem was detected in the camshaft position sensor circuit. Since it says circuit, that means the problem could lie in any part of the circuit - the sensor itself, the wiring, or the PCM. Don't just replace the CPS (camshaft position sensor) and think that will definitely fix it. Take it somewhere to get it checked out to see which of the above it is.

Symptoms Symptoms can include:

• Hard starting or no start
• Rough running / misfiring

A code P0340 could mean one or more of the following has happened:

• a wire or connector in the circuit could be grounded/shorted/broken
• the camshaft position sensor may have failed
• the PCM may have failed
• there exists an open circuit
• the crankshaft position sensor may have failed

With a P0340 OBD-II trouble code, diagnosis can be tricky at times. Here are some things to try:

• Visually inspect all the wiring and connectors in the circuit
• Check for continuity in the circuit wiring
• Check the operation (voltage) of the camshaft position sensor
• Replace the camshaft position sensor as required
• Check the crankshaft position circuit as well
• Replace circuit wiring and/or connectors as required
• Diagnose/replace the PCM as required

code po 340 no camshaft position sensor signal at powertrain control module and code po344 rationality error detected for intermittent loss of camshaft position sensor circuit. hope this will help you!!!!

That makes the computor think the timing is off. Replace the sensor and see if that does it. You will then have to have the code cleared (erased) or the light will come back on/stay on.

where is the camshaft position sensor on a 2000 dodge intrepid 2.7L V6

you need to check the wiring for the sensor if ALL the wiring is good replace the sensor

The code P1684 is real easy. The computer is stating that the battery has been disconnected within the last 50 starts.
