3. Camshaft sensor signal / supply / ground pins shorted to Supply or Ground.
4. Loose/ Damaged Connections between Cam shaft Sensor and EMS ECU.
5. Check for damage / back out of pins at ECU connector.
6. Check for damage / back out of pins at camshaft sensor’s connector.
7. Check whether the air gap between the magnets and sensing element of Cam sensor and Crank sensor are as
per specification. If not, change mounting to align the air gap as per the specification.
