Each camshaft is equipped with a camshaft position (CMP) sensor that the engine control module (ECM) monitors. The CMP sensor is a hall effect switch that works in conjunction with a 4X reluctor wheel. The reluctor wheels are mounted to the camshaft position actuators that are mounted to the end of the camshafts. The ECM uses the CMP sensor signals in order to determine the position of the camshafts. The ECM supplies 5 volts to the CMP sensors on the 5-volt reference circuits, and supplies a ground on the low reference circuits. The CMP sensors provide a signal to the ECM on the signal circuits. If the ECM detects extra or missing CMP sensor signal transitions, or a signal voltage that is more or less than the predetermined range, within a certain number of crankshaft revolutions, one of these DTCs sets.
• | The engine is operating for greater than 1 second. |
• | The DTCs run once per revolution when the condition above is met. |
• | The ECM detects a signal from the CMP sensor, but the number of pulses are less than or greater than what is expected for one crankshaft revolution. |
OR |
• | The CMP sensor does NOT correlate to the crankshaft position. |
• | Either condition must exist for greater than 4 seconds, or cumulative of 50 seconds. |
The CMP sensor signal voltage is always low and the ECM detects no pulses from the CMP sensor for greater than 4 seconds, or cumulative of 50 seconds.
The CMP sensor signal voltage is always high and the ECM detects no pulses from the CMP sensor for greater than 4 seconds or cumulative of 50 seconds.

⇒ | If a condition is found, repair as necessary. |
Important: The control module or the sensor may be damaged if the circuit is shorted to B+.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance, or for a short to voltage. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuits/connections test normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If greater than specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM. |
⇒ | If greater than specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM. |
• | Incorrect sensor installation |
• | A cracked or damaged sensor |
• | The sensor coming in contact with the reluctor wheel |
• | Excessive air gap between the reluctor wheel and the sensor |
• | Foreign material passing between the sensor and the camshaft reluctor wheel |
• | Camshaft reluctor wheel damage |
⇒ | If a condition is found, repair as necessary. |
