Hey on my 98 dodge avernger es 2.0 420a i got a code and it is say that it is code PO340 camshaft position sensor circuit malfunction so im assuming that i have to replace a cam sensor so i was wondering if the avenger has one sensor or two because when i rebuilt me 3000gt sl engine it had 2 sensors also where would the sensor/s be located?
thank you

there is only one cps and if the sensor is bad usually the car wont even start. You could try and replace it but i would check the wiring to it first. I believe the repair manual wil have a way to check the voltage at the sensor to see if its bad

 

i checked the volts and the ground was good but the positive only has 2.4 volts so i checked the same wire where it comes out of the pcm/ecu and it is also 2.4 volts so any suggestions? the car wont start

 

can i hard wire a wire to it?

 

Did you just get the code while driving or were you tinkering with some other stuff? BTW, is the sensor clean?

 

one day i just went out and the car wouldent start so i hard wired it and it is working fine thank you
