Title: Fault code 0340
Post by: stereferee on 20 October 2009, 17:56:55

hello,  i'm sure 0340 is the cam sensor.  how do i go about replacing it, and how much should i be looking to pay for one.
the eml light only comes on first thing on a cold morning and goes out with immediate re-start.  i've only seen the eml light twice.  should i be concerned? :)

thanks.

I'm sure you should only have the 2 figure fault codes on a 98? Anyway 0340 is the cam sensor and is about £35 on the TC from VX.

hi, does anyone know if you can actually clear your fault codes without going to vauxhall? once you have done a job it will always show old codes? thanks.

No in a word! You either need a code reader to clear them or a certain amount of clean start cycles and they clear themselves. IIRC it's about 20 clean starts.
