DTC P0341: Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Performance: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) uses the Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor high resolution signal in order to determine the position of the valve train in relation to the engine cylinders. The PCM uses the CMP high resolution signal in order to sequence the ignition system and the fuel injectors. The PCM supplies a 12-volt reference and a low reference to the CMP sensor. The CMP sensor returns a signal pulse in response to the reluctor track, located on the camshaft sprocket. If the PCM detects an incorrect correlation between the CMP signal and the CKP signals, DTC P0341 will set.
