DRIVEABILITY

Symptom: P-0340 NO CAM SIGNAL AT PCM

When Monitored and Set Condition: P-0340 NO CAM SIGNAL AT PCM When Monitored: Ignition ON.

Set Condition: If 96 crank signals are counted and no signal from the cam position sensor is present the DTC will set.

POSSIBLE CAUSES NO START CONDITION PRESENT 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT OPEN CMP SENSOR CIRCUIT TO HARNESS SPLICE OPEN CMP SENSOR CONNECTOR WIRING AND CONNECTORS DISTRIBUTOR AND/OR PULSE RING CMP SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORT TO 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT CMP SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN CMP SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND CMP SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORT TO SENSOR GROUND CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR PCM (NO CAM SIGNAL)
TEST 1 ACTION Ignition On, Engine Not Running With the DRB, read DTCs. Is the DTC Specific Good Trip displayed and equal to 0? Yes No 2 Go To Go To 2 14 All APPLICABILITY All
