Camshaft Position

Camshaft Position”



My old 2000 Saturn SL1 need your transmission fluid and replaced the filter. I saw him do, I know how, or even need to get everything under the car. If you can reach the drain plug and get the air filter box that you can do it yourself and save for forty dollars.

However, he had difficulty getting the old filter, enough that I pulled the cables (not good), and when I filled the tank in the transmission with the transmission fluid sprinkled in some of the new number 4 spark plug wire (which should not be much, but …).

When I was driving car "service engine soon" light has come. I bought a code reader service hungry people in the "zone of cars" (at not buying things like this Christmas season came and took the price up). The code was P0340, the position indicator cam error. A look at the cables connecting the things that could be an indicator of camshaft position revealed no damage (hmm). By Therefore, it was time to Google code P0340 "service of Saturn."

Guess what! My Saturn has no position indicator cam! The purpose of this indicator is that the computer can tell whether the number one or number four cylinder is turned on a light fuel load. This light twin engine at the same time, eliminating the need for multiple moving parts (a good thing).

The team has the ability to tell if the cylinder with monitors fuel, the greater the electrical charge to spark plug until next turn. And monitors the cylinder is (drum roll) the number four cylinders, which the liquid in the spark plug wire. This is where the story ends, my old Saturn is at least as old, but not as good. Service from seeing good.
