Why is Bank 2 of the camshaft sensor missing?

Why is Bank 2 of the camshaft sensor missing?

Specific troubleshooting steps will vary depending on the vehicle. These vehicles can have a single camshaft in block, or a single (SOHC) or dual (DOHC) overhead camshafts, but this code is strictly concerned about the incoming signal from the camshaft position sensor (s) “B” from Bank 2 being missing at some point when it is not supposed to be.

How is the camshaft position sensor used in the PCM?

The PCM uses the Camshaft Position Sensor to tell it when the Crankshaft Sensor signal is correct, when a given Crankshaft Position Sensor signal is timed to Cylinder #1 for timing, and it is also used for fuel injector synchronization / start of injection. Codes P0390 or P0391 may also be present at the same time as the P0394.

What does Bank 2 do in a PCM?

Bank #2 is the bank of the engine that does not contain cylinder #1. The PCM uses the Camshaft Position Sensor to tell it when the Crankshaft Sensor signal is correct, when a given Crankshaft Position Sensor signal is timed to Cylinder #1 for timing, and it is also used for fuel injector synchronization / start of injection.

What are the colors of the USB cable?

Although the standard wire colors in the USB cable are red, black, white, and green, don’t worry if that is not the case for your cable. Occasionally, you may find other colors like orange, blue, white, and green.

Where is the camshaft position sensor on Bank 2?

Open in the ground circuit to the camshaft position sensor “B” on Bank 2 Open in the signal circuit between the camshaft position sensor “B” and the PCM Short to 5 volts in the signal circuit to the camshaft position sensor Occasionally-Camshaft Position Sensor faulty – internally shorted to voltage

What does high input Bank 2 mean on camshaft?

Camshaft Position Sensor B Circuit High Input (Bank 2) What does that mean? This is a generic powertrain diagnostic trouble code (DTC), which means it covers all makes/models starting around 2003. The code seems more common on Kia, Hyundai, Chevrolet, Toyota, and Ford vehicles, but any make vehicle can be affected.

How does the Camshaft Position Sensor ( CMP ) work?

Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) The CMP sensor provides the camshaft position information, called the CMP signal, which is used by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) for fuel synchronization. On 2 wire Sensor engines, the distributor stator or Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor is a single Hall effect magnetic switch.

Are there Cam and crankshaft sensor wire harness connectors?

I ordered two of these to replace both the cam and crankshaft connectors on a 1997 Cobra. After 25 years of heat/cool cycles, they easily broke apart when attempting to pull them off the sensors. These replacements fit perfectly. Very pleased with purchase! NOT a Ford Diesel 6.0 L Cam Position Sensor connector. The listing is incorrect.
