I think we all learnt a few things from that ordeal Peter. I admire your perseverance. Well done!

Another great video 👍🏻 Exact same non start symptoms on a 2014 2.5 DMax. No fault codes though

So well done Peter. Great to finally track down the problem.

A great Cartoon, Peter.

This is a good example of having correct information and a logical diagnostic process being absolutely necessary in this field. I sometimes reflect on past cases and see if I could have taken a different approach to get to the conclusion faster.

Yes Peter, P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit ,(current Malfunction)Brilliant case study ,watched every second of the Video"s👍👍

Crank no start...me every Monday morning.

A lot of learning in that, great upload

Great diag Pete, it's always a new day in our trade help is massive even to the best techs, always something

Cryckies Peter that was a marathon session…4 weeks!! - I know ye weren’t on it all day every day..but I bet in your head ye were. Some serious diagnostics going on between the two videos and wise to have as many heads as possible on it..Sometimes we can get so focused on just that one rabbit hole.. Fair play for the perseverance..certainly not an easy or clear one by any means. For the majority I suspect this wagon could have been signed off to the scrap. Your videos are so insightful and helpful Peter..what you demonstrate can be applied to any car and diagnostics of sensors etc. Keep up the educational work - its very much appreciated 👍🏻 Maybe time for a rebranding…: Kennedys Auto University-Where the learning never stops 😊

Fantastic Peter that was like a good book I couldn’t put it down. That would have been an unfixable car at most places you have my admiration and I certainly learned a thing or two there.

Ohh Peter a man after my own heart just keep going and going i used to work in a hgv workshop and let me tell you the Isuzu lorries are famous for cam sensors doing exactly this if it doesn’t see cam it doesn’t know when to inject fuel hence the injectors not opening and if it doesn’t know the positio of cam it’ll disable crank as they need to be synchronised to allow the ecu to calculate the signal I’ve been down this exact road with a Isuzu n series lorry and much like you it took me a decade to figure out what was happening I was coming in on Sundays to get to the bottom of it pain in the bottom well done though getting to it a pure legend luv it lol

I've seen a few of these cam signal failures. Mostly from water getting into the connector. On the early 4JJ1 the cam and crank sensor are the same part

A blast from the past

I think you just put diesel in it haha hahaha nice two vids Peter love watching them

Great video I am currently in the exact same situation thanks for the info cheers.

Working on a customers 88 RS turbo escort right now.. Not a computer in sight Peter. TBTG. :-) I just have to figure out the rust. Rather you than me ^^.

Thanks for sharing

They are also known as a Holden/ Chevy Colorado.

Hence the term asynchronous ie not in time with or at a different interval absolute nightmare of a job my boy lol

A challenging one for you guys there Peter. Can you share a link for Allan’s KZfaq channel please?

What a nightmare to think that a simple sensor could leave you stranded in the middle of no were not a great design.

Common fault on this vehicle. Most of the time it will happen when engine is hot. Always fails the same way where it can not pull down the signal to 0v. The crank sensor fails in the same way but the difference is the vehicle will still start but will be in limp. So in short these 4jj1 engines can run with only cam but not with only crank sensor.

That’s messed up 🤯

It has to be bcm
