Introduction:
If you have one of the following codes this DIY may be for you
P0342 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Low
P0343 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit High

I replaced my CKP sensor as a part of troubleshooting a rough ilde and took pictures for this DIY.

Scope:
this diy will cover changing the CPS sensor

you will need:
small flathead screwdriver
10mm socket and wrench
Corona with a lime

Removal:
1. disconnect the plug connection from CPS sensor jack
a. remove connector from holder
b. remove connector clip from connector
c. disconnect electrical connection


2. Remove CPS sensor from engine
a. using a 10mm socket, remove bolt securing the CPS sensor to the head
b. apply a gentle wiggling motion to remove sensor from head
c. ensure that you remove the o-ring




prepare sensor:
1. if o-ring is in good shape, you may reuse it. It's best to replace the o-ring



Installation:
Installation is the reverse of removal
