Code po122 after changing camshaft position sensor

I was getting a code PO155 so I replaced the camshaft position sensor. Almost immediately after erasing the code and starting the engine, the check eng light came back on. I checked and now I am getting PO122. I know that is TPS low voltage, but why didn't I get the code before I canged the CSP sensor?

SOURCE: i have a code of po122.tps i change the sensor

other sensor could be at fault, you will have to test all that are relater to the engine to determine the ones at fault. it can also be your computer malfunctioning. by resetting it, either the code will go away or you will get another code, maybe the same

Testimonial: "how do u now what to test how do find out if it is the computer"

SOURCE: Change TP Sensor on 04 focus, 2.0DOC, and still get code PO122?

Possible but I doubt it.
The code means the computer is not getting a signal back from the sensor.
To test the sensor you would have checked for the reference voltage on the yellow wire, then check the resistance of the sensor with a meter.
You probably don't have voltage going to the sensor, or else the harness is bad between the sensor and the computer.
The return voltage is low at idle and goes up as the throttle is opened. ( I think )

I have a nissan murano 2005 with the code p1701 and a p0340 how can i use them to repair these codes

Nissan Murano P0340 2005 Nissan Murano - Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Possible causes- Faulty Camshaft Position Sensor-
Camshaft Position Sensor harness is open or shorted- Camshaft Position Sensor circuit poor electrical connection- Faulty starter motor- Starting system circuit-
Dead (Weak) battery
P1701- Fuel trim

I would suggest replacing the camshaft position sensor. When the sensor fails it can cause changes in fuel system that the computer can detect. So I suspect once the camshaft sensor ivreplaced that the P1701 code will be gone.

Otherwise, replace the gas cap (we recommend an OEM not aftermarket part), or Inspect the EVAP system for cuts/holes in tubes/hoses

- Dead (Weak) battery
P0340 FORD Description The Camshaft Position Sensor is an electronic device used in an engine to record the rate at which the camshaft is spinning. This information is used by the Engine Control Module(ECM) to control ignition and fuel injection. The camshaft position sensor senses the retraction of camshaft (intake) to identify a particular cylinder. The camshaft position sensor senses the piston position. The sensor system consists of a rotating part, typically a disc, as well as a static part, the actual sensor.

When the engine is running, the high and low parts of the teeth cause the gap with the sensor to change. The changing gap causes the magnetic field near the sensor to change. The change in the magnetic field cause the voltage from the sensor to change.

When the crankshaft position sensor (POS) system becomes inoperative, the camshaft position sensor provides various controls of engine parts instead, utilizing timing of cylinder identification signals.

After having my 06 dodge stratus checked out. 6 codes showed up. I don't want to just start throwing parts on without knowing the real reason for the problem. The car drives fine and then just...

Let's start with the codes.

Po129 refers to barosensor

Po344 is a code for the camshaft position sensor

Po339 crankshaft position sensor

Po340 camshaft position circuit malfunction

Po335 crankshaft POS sensor malfunction

Po122 throttle pedal position

Item 2,3,4,5 relate to each other that s camshaft and crankshaft position sensors. Since both already show a malfunction code, it would be advisable to change.

Sometimes other codes show up because there is a relation but not that the item is bad.
