Camshaft Position Sensor Malfunction by theadeola(m): 11:51am On Jun 06, 2023
Hi house.

I scanned my car recently, and it showed that my camshaft position sensor was not functioning properly. I had it changed and the socket checked, but it's still the same thing. A rewire checked the current in the wires with a tester and bulb, and the bulb kept on blinking.

The man said my ecu is not supplying enough current to the wires, and that I should change the ECU.

I want to know if he's right before proceeding. The code the scanner brought was P0340. The car is a 2003 Toyota matrix with a 1ZZ J20F engine (a jdm variant of the 1zz Fe)

I bet the problem is from wrong engine. The 1zz 20f is different from normal 1zz, even information on it is limited. Try to check online about your issue I know one petrol head did a swap

Okay.

Does this mean I have to order for a camshaft sensor that matches the engine type?

Thanks a lot.

Can't really point out the solution though.

This is not actually much of a DIY stuff, just get your car to qualified technician.
