More than likely it needs to be reset.
I had the same problem, so I changed the throttle position sensor and the camshaft sensor as well...it worked for me, hope it works for you too. also change the map sensor that was the reason the light was on
yes it can. i had a 2004 ford mustang that kept reading that the camshaft position sensor was the cause. Changed the cps and still same code. changed alternator and the code cleared itself!
Check Engine light, misfires, cut outs, hard starts, no starts......
Check engine light, rough running engine, no start at all.
engine light will go on and give you code

on mine i just changed the o2 sensor located in the front by fan
If the cam sensor was the cause, the light will eventually shut off. It may take a couple of weeks.
The check engine light will illuminate with a code(s) directing which O2 sensor is bad.
replace your camshaft sensor
lol had same problem, took to autozone for free read of check engine light. it was the camshaft position sensor, it was ok unless the humidity in the air went up and usually went away after restart. changed it myself $27 part, problem went away light out.
The cam sensor is inside the distributor and tells the computer the rotational location of the camshaft.
