Aye aye. Was wondering if someone could help me out a bit.

Got a V reg 99 corsa 1.6 16v.

Engine management light is on..... Surprise surprise. Coming up with code P0340 camshaft sensor. I have replaced the cam sensor and cleared the codes. Still on and car still has its little misfire/hesitation at random points. Seems to get better as ye car warms up. I have checked the wiring and can't see anything obvious wrong. I was looking to find a way of testing voltages or resistance in both the loom and the sensor but can't find any information on this.

If anyone can help it would e greatly appreciated.

Mike

I know it sounds daft mate but have you replaced the crankshaft sensor by accident?

Sounds silly but could of easily be done

Could of been a dodgey replacement sensor. Pain in the arse but it does happen

Either that or a loom problem somewhere along the lines. Try traceing the wires back?
