MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If there are no signals from the camshaft position sensor even though the engine is turning, or if the rotation
of the camshaft and the crankshaft is not synchronized, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the sen-
sor.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when
a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air±fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other
data from the time when a malfunction occurred.
1 Check resistance of camshaft position sensor (See page SF±76).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
These DTCs indicate a malfunction related to primary circuit.
The DIS is a 1±cylinder ignition system which ignites one cylinder with one ignition coil. In the 1±cylinder
ignition system, the one spark plug is connected to the end of the secondary winding. High voltage generated
in the secondary winding is applied directly to the spark plug. The spark of the spark plug passes from the
center electrode to the ground electrode.
The ECM determines the ignition timing and outputs the ignition signals (IGTs) for each cylinder. Using the
IGT, the ECM turns on and off the power transistor inside the igniter and this switches on and off the current
to the primary coil. When the current to the primary coil is cut off, high±voltage is generated in the secondary
coil and this voltage is applied to the spark plugs to create sparks inside the cylinders. As the ECM cuts the
current to the primary coil, the igniter sends back the ignition confirmation signal (IGF) for each cylinder igni-
tion to the ECM.

DTC P1340, P1341 Camshaft Position Sensor ºAº (Bank
Sensor 1)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G signal) consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil.
The camshaft drive gear (LH) has 3 teeth on its inner circumference. When the camshaft gear rotates, air
gap changes between the protrusion on the gear and the pickup coil. The change affects the magnetic field
and result in change in the resistance of the MRE element.
The crankshaft signal plate has 32 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The crankshaft position sensor
generates 32 signals at 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 signal.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The camshaft position sensor (G signal) consists of a magnet and MRE element.
The camshaft drive gear has 5 teeth on its inner circumference. When the camshaft gear rotates, air gap
changes between the protrusion on the gear and the pickup coil. The change affects the magnetic field and
result in change in the resistance of the MRE element. The crankshaft angle sensor plate has 32 teeth and
output 32 signals every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the
G signal and actual crankshaft angle and engine speed by NE signal.
