Need Help - Getting P0342
Greetings,
I have a 2015 C400 with just around 110K miles. Car has no issues starting, no issues idling and otherwise runs good. Over the past few days I've been getting a check engine light and when reading the code, it's P0342 - Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Low Input Bank 1. The car has been running good so I cleared it, but it has come back. Car seems to run fine even with this code present.
I've done some research and it seems it could be related to the Camshaft Position Sensor needing to be replaced. I've done some searching, but I am not able to find anything to show me where exactly this sensor is. I've also seen some information that suggests there may be two of them?
Would anyone know if there are one or two for the C400 and could point me to exactly where they are at? I'd like to try and replace them as a DIY if at all possible.
Thank you in advance!
