This car started but soon shut off after less than 5 seconds. So, we checked and got a P0342 code, which is a cam position sensor. Cleared the code and tried again with the same results. I found mixed answers, but it is still unclear as to where exactly this sensor is. I am hoping you can clarify this for me.

Thanks,

Jim
