DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G signal) consist of a signal plate an pickup coil.
The G signal plate has one tooth on its outer circumference and is built into the distributor.
When the camshaft rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change, caus-
ing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The NE signal sensor generates 34
signals for every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G signal
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check resistance of camshaft position sensor (signal generator) (See page
IG−14).
Reference:
INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
Refer to page DI−59 for the OSCILLOSCOPE.
NG Replace camshaft position sensor.
OK
2 Check for open and short in harness and connector between ECM and camshaft
position sensor (See page IN−30).

WHEN THE IGNITION SW IS TURNED ON, CURRENT FLOWS TO TERMINAL 2 OF THE REAR WASHER MOTOR, TERMINAL 3 OF THE
REAR WIPER RELAY AND TERMINAL 1 OF THE REAR WIPER MOTOR THROUGH THE WIPER FUSE.
1. REAR WIPER NORMAL OPERATION
WITH THE IGNITION SW TURNED ON AND REAR WIPER AND WASHER SW TURNED ON, THE CURRENT FLOWING TO TERMINAL 3
OF THE REAR WIPER RELAY FLOWS TO TERMINAL 6 OF THE RELAY "TERMINAL 10 OF THE REAR WIPER AND WASHER SW "
TERMINAL 2 "TOGROUND. THUS, THE RELAY COIL IS ACTIVATED AND THE CURRENT TO TERMINAL 3 OF THE RELAY FLOWS TO
TERMINAL 4 " TERMINAL 4 OF THE REAR WIPER MOTOR " MOTOR "TO GROUND AND CAUSES THE MOTOR TO OPERATE THE
WIPER.
2. REAR WIPER INTERMITTENT OPERATION
WHEN THE IGNITION SW IS ON AND THE REAR WIPER AND WASHER SW IS TURNED TO INT POSITION, CURRENT FLOWING TO
TERMINAL 3 OF THE REAR WIPER RELAY FLOWS TO TERMINAL 2 OF THE RELAY "TERMINAL 13 OF THE REAR WIPER AND
WASHER SW "TERMINAL 2 "GROUND.
THIS CAUSES THE MOTOR TO OPERATE (THE POINT CHANGES) AND THE INTERMITTENT CIRCUIT OF THE RELAY OPERATES.
INTERMITTENT OPERATION OF THE CIRCUIT IS CONTROLLED BY THE CHARGING AND DISCHARGING OF THE CONDENSER
INSTALLED INSIDE THE RELAY.
3. WASHER OPERATION
WITH THE IGNITION SW TURNED ON AND THE REAR WIPER AND WASHER SW TURNED TO ON POSITION, WHEN THE WIPER SW IS
TURNED FURTHER, THE CURRENT FLOWING TO TERMINAL 2 OF THE REAR WASHER MOTOR FLOWS TO TERMINAL 1 OF THE
MOTOR "TERMINAL 12 OF THE REAR WIPER AND WASHER SW "TERMINAL 2 "TO GROUND SO THAT THE WASHER MOTOR
ROTATES AND THE WINDOW WASHER EJECTS THE SPRAY, ONLY WHILE THE SWITCH IS FULLY TURNED.
WHEN THE WIPER SW IS OFF AND THEN TURNED TO WASHER ON (WIPER OFF SIDE), ONLY THE WASHER OPERATES.
