Diagnostic Aids

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. An intermittent fault in the CKP circuits may cause the ECM to resync the cam and may set this DTC. If the ECM is resyncing the camshaft, the CMP Resync Counter on the Scan tool will increment with the engine running.
  2. An intermittent short to voltage on the camshaft position signal can set this DTC. A direct short to voltage on the camshaft position signal circuit will set this DTC, as there will be no change in the camshaft position signal input.
  3. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) may also set this DTC. Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness appears to be okay, observe the CMP resync counter on the scan tool while moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the camshaft position signal. If the CMP resync counter still does not count, while observing the scan tool, operate any non-engine related electrical components on the vehicle. A change in display will indicate the location of the malfunction.
  4. If this DTC is determined to be intermittent, see INTERMITTENTS in TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES - 2.2L & 3.0L VUE article.
