DTC CONSULT screen terms (Trouble diagnosis content) DTC detection condition
P0340-00 CMP SEN/CIRC-B1 (Camshaft position sensor "A" circuit bank 1) Diagnosis condition Engine: Cranking or running (idle speed or more than 800 RPM)
Signal (terminal) Intake camshaft position sensor (PHASE) (bank 1) signal
Threshold
  • The cylinder No. signal is not sent to ECM for the first few seconds during engine cranking
  • The cylinder No. signal is not sent to ECM during engine running
  • The cylinder No. signal is not in the normal pattern during engine running
Diagnosis delay time -

POSSIBLE CAUSE 

  • Harness or connectors [Intake camshaft position sensor (bank 1) circuit is open or shorted.]
  • Intake camshaft position sensor (bank 1)
  • Camshaft (INT)
  • Starter motor
  • Starting system circuit
  • Dead (Weak) battery

FAIL-SAFE 

Engine Control System 

Fail safe mode Vehicle behavior
Device fix mode
  • Fixes electric intake valve timing control motor in the reference position.
  • Fixes exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve in the reference position.
  • The Intake manifold runner control valve motor is turned OFF (Intake manifold runner control valve opens).
Combustion control mode Stratified charge combustion control at starting No stratified charge combustion at starting (cold start).
Idle speed control * Stops feedback control of idle speed and controls with specified speed.
Recovery speed control at decelerating * Stops recovery speed control by the fuel cut at decelerating and controls with specified speed.

*: This control may not be executed.

Idle Start/Stop System 

When a DTC is detected, the start/stop indicator lamp blinks slowly and the idle start/stop system operation is prohibited. When ECM detects error while operating the idle start/stop system, ECM restarts the engine.

  • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
