Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Intermittent

Ran okay without doing but still getting random misfire codes.

Camshaft position sensor a circuit intermittent.

P0344 is know to be triggered by a battery that has low no charge. P0344 meaning the camshaft position sensor is an electronic device used in an engine to record the rate at which the camshaft is spinning. This is a generic powertrain diagnostic trouble code dtc which means it covers all makes models starting around 2003. Sensor a indicates that the malfunction is occurring with the camshaft position sensor circuit that pertains to the intake camshaft.

The camshaft position sensor itself can go bad over time. Bad camshaft position sensor. P0344 camshaft position sensor a circuit intermittent means there s a missing signal at a point in the cmp camshaft position sensors. You are driving on the highway moving along in fast traffic when your engine suddenly loses power.

This indicates an intermittent electrical circuit fault and this code may occur in combination with codes p0340 and p0341 both of which also indicate intermittent electrical circuit problems with the camshaft position sensor failing to send signals to indicate that the crankshaft sensor signal is correct. On the other hand v6 or v8 engines have two banks bank 1 and bank 2 and would therefore have two cmps so dtc p0349 would refer to bank 2. Sensor b codes pertain to the exhaust camshaft. Camshaft position sensor a circuit intermittent bank 1 what does that mean.

A camshaft position sensor can fail without warning. Random misfire detected intermittent voltage for o2 sensor camshaft position sensor. It could happen at any time. I ve seen numerous codes on my 2009 dodge ram 1500 4 7l.

An intermittent or complete cmp sensor failure while on the road could be dangerous. All sensors have been replaced even the pcm.
