Generic OBD-II

P0342

These are code references, not a list of confirmed faults on every vehicle. Read the source and applicability notes, then match the exact vehicle, year, engine and scan report.

A low intake-cam signal means missing edges as the crank turns

bank-1 intake cam signal stops at a high level

Unexpected intake cam events can trigger an intermittent circuit result

Bank 2 intake cam circuit evaluation depends on engine-event relationships

Bank 2 intake-cam performance checks the signal pattern

bank-2 intake cam signal remains low without new edges

A high bank 2 intake-cam input is diagnosed when edges disappear

Bank 2 intake cam intermittency can be a misplaced event

Unexpected crankshaft position during a hybrid auto-start

Reported crankshaft direction reversals while the engine runs

Ion Sense System Performance

Ignition control feedback fails to match the command

Cylinder 1 ignition-control open feedback during the off state

Cylinder 2 ignition output judged open by its driver

Cylinder 3 ignition-control circuit opening versus a weak spark

Coil D open-circuit interpretation needs the actual driver mapping

Coil E open-load evidence needs the internal driver mapping

ignition-coil circuit code with inconsistent coil lettering
