Engine Performance problem
2006 Dodge Stratus 4 cyl Automatic 88000 miles

engine light came on & had autozone give me computer code read out. 0340 0344. I replaced cam position sensor, plugs and wires. Light still on. Do I have to changed the distributor cap or coil?. Does this car even have a distributor cap or coil? What about EGR valve. Could this make engine light stay on?

Maybe they didn't reset the board and the light stayed on?

If it was erased while being checked and continue to come back inspect and test wiring for open/shorted/grounded wire, voltage to the CMH and also test the crankshaft position sensor if all okay have the computer tested-
