Did I trigger the P0340 code?
Did I trigger the P0340 code?
Recently purchase a 2005 G35, 84k miles.
I will warn you sometimes I'm an idiot when it comes to cars.
On my 2nd time ever starting the vehicle, I turned the ignition and released it just barely before the engine started. Then immediately tried to start it again and as before I released the key just before the engine started. must have temporarily messed something up because after a few more tries I finally had to hold the key starting the engine for 3-4 seconds before the engine finally fired up.
Shortly after this incident I looked at my dash and noticed the "check engine soon" light.
Read the code and it was the P0340/cam sensor
I read online that some symptoms are hard starting.
Did i possibly trick the ECU into thinking I have bad cam sensors because of my stupid error when starting the vehicle for the 2nd time? I reset the code and have driven it for 30-40 minutes without the check engine light coming back on.
The vehicle does not have a hard starting issue as far as I'm aware. It starts up perfectly fine every time unless I'm an idiot.
