Camshaft position sensor b circuit malfunction

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? Let me know. Also, take a look at the pic below. Take care, Joe See pic below. Image Click to make bigger. Was this answer. Hi, thank you for the fast reply.

We recommend Torque Pro. A properly running engine is essentially the precise timing of gasoline-fueled explosions. Depending on engine speed RPM and load the engine control unit ECU controls the timing and amount of fuel injection, timing of spark ignition, and in the case of engines with variable valve timing VVT , intake- and exhaust-valve timing adjustments. If there are two banks on a VVT-equipped engine, then there will be two camshaft position sensors. The camshaft position sensor reacts to a toothed wheel on the camshaft, which gives the ECU constant information on its speed and position. Sensor A indicates that the malfunction is occurring with the camshaft position sensor circuit that pertains to the intake camshaft. Sensor B codes pertain to the exhaust camshaft. Here are some of the most common.

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.

Don't know if any of these are helpful. I'm in Cheddar, Somerset. I'm not sure what is meant by 'B' in the error description but I guess that the circuit comprises the sensor, some circuit in the ECU and the wires inbetween. That mechanic does sound good! I managed to fit it correctly and my fault code has now cleared. Sponsored links. Perhaps it is a problem with the ECU but I don't know. For example, using the Torque app on an android phone. I found quite a good article about fuel trims and had a quick scan through it. However, if that is not possible, we offer the option to permanently delete this specific DTC. I like your team.

When the Check Engine Light comes on, your immediate reaction is to panic and worry about what needs to be fixed. One of the more serious issues is the P code.

Hope this helps. Just question what they say to you - or get a second opinion if possible. Everywhere Threads This forum This thread. So I'll start with the replacement sensor. Peugeot RCZ Forum. 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.
