    The SES came on yesterday when I started the car to head home from work. It
    was on this morning so I checked it and got P0341.

    Google helped me find out that I should just check the plugs and plug wires
    and work back from there. If the code comes back, I plan to follow these
    steps here :

    My question is technical. Given the following series of codes:

    P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
    P0341 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Range/Performance
    P0342 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Low Input
    P0343 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit High Input
    P0344 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Intermittent

    How does a "Range/Performance" error differ from a malfunction, input, or
    intermittent error?

    PS: I do understand that my 98SL does not in fact have a camshaft position
    sensor.

    TIA

    P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
    P0340 is when there is no signal to PCM and P0341 is when there is an
    incorrect signal to PCM.

    P0342, P0343 and P0344 no not apply to your vehicle.

    Okay, thanks a lot! I'm just trying to understand what's going on here.

    Thanks for the chart, too! I'll use that if it comes back and I have to go
    through the TS steps!
