In a perfect world, it means the computer is not getting a reliable signal from the sensor. The computer is very dependent on that type of sensor for making countless adjustments to fuel delivery and ignition timing. if it gets erroneous data it responds in kind.

I have fault codes P1684 & P0340 on my 2002

P1684 The battery has been disconnected within the last 50 starts.

P0340


This indicates that a problem was detected in the camshaft position sensor circuit. Since it says circuit, that means the problem could lie in any part of the circuit - the sensor itself, the wiring, or the PCM. Don't just replace the CPS (camshaft position sensor) and think that will definitely fix it.
Symptoms Symptoms can include:
  • Hard starting or no start
  • Rough running / misfiring
  • Loss of engine power
Causes A code P0340 could mean one or more of the following has happened:
  • a wire or connector in the circuit could be grounded/shorted/broken
  • the camshaft position sensor may have failed
  • the PCM may have failed
  • there exists an open circuit
  • the crankshaft position sensor may have failed
Possible Solutions With a P0340 OBD-II trouble code, diagnosis can be tricky at times. Here are some things to try:
  • Visually inspect all the wiring and connectors in the circuit
  • Check for continuity in the circuit wiring
  • Check the operation (voltage) of the camshaft position sensor
  • Replace the camshaft position sensor as required
  • Check the crankshaft position circuit as well
  • Replace circuit wiring and/or connectors as required
  • Diagnose/replace the PCM as required

HOW DO U FIX CODE 9 ON A HONDA CIVIC

For most people with 1992 Honda Civics this code can be resolved by checking the connections on the Cylinder position/camshaft position sensor which is located near the distributor. Make sure it is not shorting out and clean the area. If that doesn't work then the distributor needs to be replaced. Thanks for using Fixya.

A p0340 trouble code and i changed the cam position sensor and all 4 o2 sensor's on a 01 ford mustang gt with a 4.6

Code P0340 is a camshaft position sensor CIRCUIT fault. This means it can be a bad sensor, wiring fault (loose connector, short, open), or even a bad PCM. Since you've already changed the camshaft position sensor you've eliminated that possibility. It's time to do some electrical troubleshooting. That, of course, depends upon your skill set for this type of work and equipment (mostly a good dmm and schematics). If you're not equipped for this then you'll likely have to seek assistance from a local shop.
