P0367
DTC P0367
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Each camshaft is equipped with a camshaft position (CMP) sensor that the engine control module (ECM) monitors. The CMP sensor is a hall effect switch that works in conjunction with a 4X reluctor wheel. The reluctor wheels are mounted to the camshaft position actuators that are mounted to the end of the camshafts. The ECM uses the CMP sensor signals in order to determine the position of the camshafts.
The ECM supplies 5 volts to the CMP sensors on the 5-volt reference circuits, and supplies a ground on the low reference circuits. The CMP sensors provide a signal to the ECM on the signal circuits. If the ECM detects the CMP signal voltage is less than a predetermined voltage, within a certain number of crankshaft revolutions, this DTC sets.
DTC DESCRIPTORS
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:
- DTC P0342 Intake Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Bank 1
- DTC P0347 Intake Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Bank 2
- DTC P0367 Exhaust Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Bank 1
- DTC P0392 Exhaust Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Bank 2
CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
DTCs P0342, P0347, P0367, P0392 run continuously once the engine is operating for more than 1 second.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The CMP sensor signal voltage is always low and the ECM detects no pulses from the CMP sensor for more than 4 seconds.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
- The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.
- The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
- The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 4 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
- A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.
- A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic.
- Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
The table illustrates the ECM connector locations:
- Use the J 35616 Connector Test Adapter Kit for any test that requires probing the ECM harness connector or a component harness connector.
- For an intermittent condition, refer to Intermittent Conditions. Intermittent Conditions
TEST DESCRIPTION
Step 1 - Step 7:
Step 8 - Step 13:
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
2. This step determines that the condition is present.
4. This step tests the signal circuit of the CMP sensor. This circuit is pulled-up to about 5 volts.
5. This step tests for high resistance in the low reference circuit of the CMP sensors. The ECM must be completely powered down to obtain an accurate resistance reading. It may take up to 30 minutes for the ECM to power down after the ignition key is removed. Removal of the ECM fuse, or the PCM/ETC fuse, allows the ECM to power down completely.
