P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction

Where is the camshafts on BMW z3 1997

i have a 2000 eclipse and got a trouble shooting code p0340 for a camshaft position sensor. but my car dont have one?

P0340 is

Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
What does that mean?

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.

Symptoms can include:

• Hard starting or no start
• Rough running / misfiring
• Loss of engine power

Causes

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

Possible Solutions

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

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?
