    Hey Zach we replaced to heads on a 02 Tacoma and upon start we got a P0340. New code after head replacement. When we try to reset it with scan tool comes right back. Do we need smarter tool or could it just be CPS? You cat solved your sensor issue our dog is no help!

    Is it normal for a new camshaft sensor,to make a clicking noise,when idling?

    • @8020Media
      @8020Media  3 місяці тому

      P - Are you sure it's the sensor that's clicking?

    I just bought my g35 when I bought it all it did was crank and I sprayed some starter fluid in the intake and it started right up so I was think it’s was fuel pump , replaced the fuel pump , still no start just crank , it don’t show codes for cam or crank , shows no codes at all no check engine light , replaced 1 camchaft position sensor on the passenger side , and replaced spark plugs still just crank no start , fuel up is working, I’m gonna replace other camshaft sensor and crank , if nothing what else could it be .?

    i have a question, i got a code for a cam sensor on my g35, i no you said it can not start at all but mine has no crank no start everything work, when the crank sensor went out it took a long time to crank up the car but it still started, i replaced it but when the cam sensors went out it doesn't start at all just a click sound, i was wondering is it the cam sensor, starter or battery kinda low? i haven't replace the cam sensor yet

    What about obd 11 error fault code P000B, could that indicate a bad cmp sensor? 2015 RAM 2500

    • @8020Media
      @8020Media  Місяць тому

      M - It's certainly possible. That code is associated with the camshaft.

    Is it possible for a cam sensor to be bad and not throw a code for it? I have a rich running code in both banks and I have good fuel pressure, new plugs, coils and wires.

    • @8020Media

      D - Possible, but not likely.
