I need to replace the crankshaft position sensor, and the camshaft position sensor on my 1999 saturn SL1, single cam 1.9 litter engine, but can't locate were they are at on the car.

DTC P0340 Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Circuit . has single sensor . This is circuit problem , testing the electrical circuit's for the sensor before replacing the sensor should be done . Do you know how to test sensor circuit's ?

How To Diagnose Check Engine Light Code P0340 Cam Position Sensor

Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
Right side of the engine, above the timing chain cover, under the power steering pump

(1) Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Solenoid - Intake Bank 1
(2) Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor - Intake Bank 1
(3) Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor - Intake Bank 2
(4) Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Solenoid - Intake Bank 2
(5) Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Solenoid - Exhaust Bank 2
(6) Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor - Exhaust Bank 2
(7) Generator
(8) A/C Compressor Clutch
(9) Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Solenoid - Exhaust Bank 1
(10) Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor - Exhaust Bank 1

. This vehicle doesnt have a camshaft position sensor, it uses the crankshaft position

Hi there:
This vehicle doesnt have a camshaft position sensor, it uses the crankshaft position sensor .. image link HERE.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

P0016 Chrysler

Crankshaft -camshaft timing misalignment bank 1 sensor 1
- The pcm detects that the camshaft position is out of phase with the crankshaft position

Probable Cause[s]

1. Engine oil dirty or contaminated /Incorrect engine viscosity
2. Open or short circuit condition
3. Camshaft 1/1 position solenoid, camshaft phaser ,camshaft1/1 position sensor
4. Crankshaft position sensor ,crankshaft,tone wheel or flex plate
5. Camshaft,tone wheel or pulse ring

replace it before you end up spending more than you want to $$$$,regee

I HAVE A 98 SATURN, WON'T EVEN TRY TO START EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE. TURNS OUT TO BE THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

I hate to tell you this, but there is not Camshaft Position Sensor on any 1.9L Single or Dual OHC. I assume you had someone read a Diagnostic Trouble Code from your PCM. They probably told you that you needed a Camshaft Position Sensor, and then offered to sell you one. I would recommend changing your spark plugs and your plug cables with FACTORY REPLACEMENTS. This will usually make the DTC go away. Aftermarket plugs and wires rarely work well for this engine. If you are looking for a CRANKSHAFT position sensor, look between the engine and transmission on the back side of the transmission. It is also known as the "transmission input speed sensor". More often than not though, your engine will not fire up if the Crank position sensor is not working. Hope this helps.
