Where is the Camshaft position sensor B located? I have codes for Camshaft position sensor bank 2 sensor b circuit malfunction and intermittent. I can only find 2 sensors on the front of the engine. Do you. Hi, Are you sure it is a camshaft sensor, or could it be a variable valve timing solenoid? Is it possible for you to let me know the code?

Camshaft position sensor b circuit malfunction

This diagnostic trouble code DTC is a generic powertrain code that applies to all makes and models of vehicles newer. However, specific repair steps may vary depending on the model. Since it mentions the circuit, the issue could be in the sensor itself, the wiring, or the PCM. Simply replacing the CPS camshaft position sensor may not necessarily fix the problem. Difficulty starting or failure to start Rough running or misfiring Loss of engine power Check engine light illuminated. A grounded, shorted, or broken wire or connector in the circuit A failed camshaft position sensor A failed PCM An open circuit A failed crankshaft position sensor. We always recommend seeking professional mechanical assistance to resolve this issue. However, if that is not possible, we offer the option to permanently delete this specific DTC. All other codes will still be addressed. If you are interested, please upload your ECU file to our portal.

The camshaft position sensor circuit is an essential component in modern automotive engines. By monitoring the rotation of the camshaft, the sensor provides vital information to the engine control unit ECU , allowing it to optimize fuel injection and ignition timing. This ensures efficient engine performance and reduces emissions. A faulty camshaft position sensor circuit can lead to various issues, such as poor engine performance, misfires, and difficulty starting the engine. It is important to regularly inspect and maintain this circuit to ensure the smooth operation of the engine. It plays a vital role in ensuring the engine operates smoothly and efficiently. By providing real-time data to the engine control unit ECU , the camshaft position sensor helps optimize engine performance and timing. The camshaft position sensor works by utilizing a magnetic field to detect the position of the camshaft. It consists of a reluctor wheel , which is mounted on the camshaft, and a sensor that measures the changes in the magnetic field as the wheel rotates.

We recommend Torque Pro. If a code P accompanies a malfunction indicator lamp MIL in your vehicle, it means that the powertrain control module PCM has detected a problem with the exhaust camshaft position sensor or circuit for engine bank one. Bank 1 represents the bank of the engine that contains the number one cylinder. Sensor B indicates that the malfunction is occurring with the camshaft position sensor circuit that pertains to the exhaust camshaft. Clearly, variations in engine configuration will dictate the number of camshaft sensors that are required. For instance; an overhead valve engine will typically be equipped with a single camshaft sensor because the engine has only one camshaft. An overhead cam, four-cylinder engine will likely have only one camshaft sensor as well because it has only one engine bank , but an overhead cam, V6 requires at least two camshaft sensors one per engine bank. Likewise, a dual overhead cam, V8 engine will require four camshaft sensors because there are two engine banks with two camshafts in each bank.

Yes, too large fuel trims can indicate timing issues. I have codes for Camshaft position sensor bank 2 sensor b circuit malfunction and intermittent. Hi, Are you sure it is a camshaft sensor, or could it be a variable valve timing solenoid? Don't know if any of these are helpful. Search forums. I had a quick look on the web and it looks like having the adaptions reset is something to do with the ECU. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding.

If the problem is more sinister and is something to do with the camchain I'll have to take it to Peugeot to fix it they've already replaced the camchain, tensioner, guides etc under warranty and I'll then look at part exchanging it for a Mercedes ML or similar. I am very happy to meet you guys and I love working with you! The codes are P, P, P, and P

He said that the adaptions would need to be reset after changing the sensor and suggested I change it at his premises just in case the car refuses to move afterwards although he said it would probably continue in limp mode. First thing when I got home today, I checked the oil in the wife's expedition and found it to be low, very low 5 quarts low! Are the fuel trims related to the camshaft timing in some way? Also, make sure the engine oil is both clean and full. By accepting this notice, you agree to our Privacy Policy Accept. Keep going! See detailed specifications and download tuning files.
