joebaldwin Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I recently changed the camshaft sensors (bank 1 & 2) because I had the code flash up on the computer. Once changed I reset the computer. However now the car fails to spark to life on a warm engine. For example, if i drive to the shops and pop in for a minute or 2, when i get back to the car it ticks over but doesn't spark into life. Really frustrating! Can anyone recommend why this may be and what I can do to fix it? (I know there may have been other forums on this topic, however none of them seem to come to a solution) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I changed mine because of warm start issues, are you sure the two new fitted ones are free from error? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebaldwin Posted April 10, 2017 Author Share Posted April 10, 2017 Yeah - Had a garage re-do a diagnositic with the computer and they said that it was error free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Aftermarket cam sensors do not work, so you must use OEM Genuine NIssan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebaldwin Posted April 10, 2017 Author Share Posted April 10, 2017 Has anyone got a link for OEM Genuine Nissan camshaft sensors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erni902 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 got mine from Nissan for circa £65 each and no issues, apart from the dealer giving me the wrong one for bank 1 see my thread 'Misfire No CEL' for the part numbers ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobPhoboS Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 If you bought a cheap ebay one, return it for a refund and buy a proper one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LH350Z Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I replaced my bank 2 one last year. Got it from local reputable motor factors (a branded part but not OEM). It was approx £35-40. I Installed it, reset dash lights .It's worked fine ever since. My local dealer wanted about £100+ vat for an OEM one?!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
