Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
DTC P0369: General Description
Camshaft position (CMP) sensor B consists of a rotor and a semiconductor that detects rotor position. When the rotor turns after starting the engine, the changes of magnetic flux in the semiconductor are converted into pulsing signals to the powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM determines exhaust camshaft timing position according to the pulsing signals from CMP sensor B and the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor. If abnormal amount of pulsing signals from CMP sensor B are detected, the PCM detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.
