Camshaft Position Sensor: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTIONThe Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor is used by the PCM to determine which cylinder is misfiring when misfire is present. The PCM compares the signals from the CKP and CMP sensors to determine which cylinder is misfiring. This sensor has no effect on the Electronic Ignition (EI) system.
A fault in the CMP sensor circuits will cause a DTC P0341 or P0342.
