  • Replacing Camshaft Sensor

    I was driving home the other day and all of the sudden my car started kirking out. It felt like a horrible misfire but it didnt throw a misfire code, inside it shot out a P0341 (Camshaft Sensor)

    I went to DAP and ordered a new sensor, Im just wondering how complicated or... how easy of a replacement this is? I looked at the diagram and it seemed fairly straightfoward.

    Has anyone done this fix and could give me some tips or lead me in the right direction?

    Thanks

          Well that was an easy fix. However... now the Camshaft sensor code is gone but in its place is a random misfire code! yay!

          i just changed the spark plugs, wires, and coil packs less than 2 months ago.

          anything else i should look for? it feels exactly the same as before i replaced the sensor only diffrence is... no sensor error code.
