Check the sensor again. Pull the sensor and check the face and make sure there is no foreign matter stuck to it. Check the postition it is in before removing it. If it's clean then insert it a little bit further into the openning but be careful not to go too far. Since most crank and cam position sensors are inductive any foreign matter on the active area will cause false signals. Metallic shavings in your oil will play havoc on these sensors. Hope this helps.

Toyota Camry 2001 and the indicator on the instrument panel showed that a rear tail light needed to be replaced you replaced a burnt bulb with a new one the light on the instrument panel is still on?

The light sensor works on resistance ! When a light burns out the resistance is very high . This shows as a difference in the good and bad bulb and turns on the sensor lite ! Two different brands of bulbs can vary enough to turn the sensor on even though the lites work ! Answer CHANGE AS PAIRS !! Change the other side too !! L & R KM

When this happened to me on my seven year old 2.2 DCi laguna I had to hae taken in to the Renault dealers. It turned out to be the a problem with both the cam sensor and the fuel injection sensor.
