06 gt po340 code

Code triped last week reset it hasn't come on again yet but I know it's the cam positioning sensor.can I just be changed out and computer will relearn it or does dealer need to install it and program it thanks.

Does it idle rough at all and it still runs strong? I have heard of this code being thrown because of the alternator.

Idles perfect no problems and my digital gauge shows is right where it needs to be plus I only run it every two or three weeks and starts every time.did notice the wires where spliced in part is only 20 bucks so I am not worried but like I said I've read might need to be programmed?or I will change it myself if it will relearn.thanks

It might relearn itself, 99% of the time when this code goes off it is because of a bad alternator though.

I had the same intermittent code last year. I did same, changed the sensor but code kept coming back. Almost took front engine cover off to check base timing (timing chain). Changed alt & fixed problem.

Alternator when failing can create radio frequencies that are close to the computers & will trigger a false p340 or similar code.

Thanks for all info but as of now no signs of my alt.going but I am sure it will when I don't want it too

I had no signs or problem except for the error code & batt light.
