Default check engine light at 100 k miles

did my timing belt change a month ago used right tools from blauparts car ran find for a while now im getting
the check engine light pulled codes they are:


p0368 camshaft position sensor "b" circuit high bank 1 - replaced one sensor already
i believe it has 2 sensors if im not mistaken

done that sensor cant get rid of light car runs decent if timing was bad will it run rough
can it be possible check engine light has to be turned off by dealer since milaege is passed 100 k miles now

it wont passed inspection since check engine light is on any sudgestions will be apretiated

I suspect incorrect timing. Did you pre-tension the belt correctly?

Based on your do it yourself belt change, I would go back to that and backtrack, it's likely the key issue. You may have not set the cam sprockets right or they have moved. The cam sensor code might come up because the software doesn't understand a loose cam gear. Just a guess since I don't know which engine you have and they are different.

I had a check engine code saying that the camshaft position sensor was bad and needed to be replaced. I had a shop replace the sensor and a few days later the code came back. The first sensor they changed out was also bad, so the shop did put a second sensor in and the code has not returned. It is worth a shot to change out the sensor again, but the code could be because of the timing belt switch.
