Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

06 CS with 74500 miles Kind of a weird situation and I'm stuck. Noticed cam cover sweating oil around sensor seals. Did a bit of research and visual inspection and decided to replace both camshaft solenoids. Ended up triggering code P0020 - A Camshaft Position Actuator A Control Circuit/Open Bank 2. Reset the code but now it comes on every time I start the engine. Has anyone run across something similar or able to venture a guess why?

POST 2Original post

Just a guess. Have you checked that the connectors are seated and that the contacts aren't bent or pushed out?

POST 3Original post

Check and Check. Just ordered a new cam position sensor. Was around $35 so worth giving it a shot.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
