Circuit Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 GMC Sierra, 2004 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2004 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The hall effect camshaft position (CMP) sensor produces 3 ON-OFF pulses for each revolution of the camshaft. The CMP output is pulse width encoded. The electronic control (ECM) module uses the CMP and crankshaft position (CKP) output pulses to determine the engine speed and position. The CMP is connected directly to the ECM by the following circuits:
- 12-volt reference
- Low reference
- CMP sensor signal
If the ECM determines that the CMP sensor signal is out of range for less than 2 seconds, diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0341 will set.
