P0367: Camshaft Position Sensor B Circuit Low Input (Bank 1)

Quick answer: The ECU sees the Bank 1 camshaft position sensor B signal too low or too weak to trust.

Drivers also search this fault as bank 1 cam sensor B low input, bank 1 exhaust cam sensor low voltage, weak bank 1 cam sensor B signal.

Severity: high Family: powertrain Related paths: 14
Meaning

What P0367 usually means

P0367 means the Bank 1 sensor B input is weak or biased low. That usually points to a failing sensor, corroded connector, voltage drop, high-resistance wiring, or a signal that falls apart most clearly during cranking and hot restart when the exhaust-cam reference is already marginal.

Fast triage

Start here before chasing parts

  • Scan first: save freeze-frame and pending codes before clearing anything.
  • Confirm the complaint: compare the stored code with current drivability symptoms.
  • Use context: trims, live data, and related codes usually narrow the fault faster than guesswork.
  • Work simplest to hardest: leaks, connectors, maintenance items, and known patterns before expensive components.
Initial checks

What to check first

  • Inspect the Bank 1 sensor B connector closely for oil or green corrosion.
  • Check battery and cranking voltage before calling the sensor guilty by itself.
  • If VVT or correlation codes are present too, do not assume the low-input fault is the whole story.
Driving risk

Can you keep driving?

P0367 can leave the engine hard to start or unwilling to restart hot, so it deserves prompt diagnosis.

High urgency: If symptoms are active, reduce driving and diagnose quickly before secondary damage builds.
Likely causes

Common causes behind this code

  • Weak or failing Bank 1 camshaft position sensor B
  • Corroded or loose connector causing voltage drop
  • High resistance or partial short in the Bank 1 sensor B circuit
  • Oil intrusion affecting Bank 1 connector quality
  • Poor power supply or ground integrity during crank

Cause phrases often tied to this code: weak bank 1 cam sensor, connector corrosion, high resistance wiring, low cranking voltage, oil contamination.

Diagnostic order

Suggested workflow

  1. Verify battery voltage and stable cranking speed.
  2. Inspect Bank 1 sensor B connector condition, pin tension, and harness routing.
  3. Check cam-signal status with a scan tool during cranking and hot restart.
  4. Test the sensor and circuit if the low-input cause is not obvious.
  5. Recheck sync behavior after repair.
Avoid guesswork

Common mistakes

  • Replacing the sensor without correcting oil-soaked or corroded connectors.
  • Ignoring cranking-voltage problems that make the signal look weak.
  • Assuming a low-input code rules out timing-chain or phaser involvement.
Repair path

Practical fix guidance

  • Correct the low-input source first, then verify normal starts and believable Bank 1 exhaust-cam data.
  • If sync issues remain, widen the diagnosis to correlation and timing context.

FAQ

Quick questions about P0367

Can low voltage cause P0367?

Yes. Weak battery or voltage-drop problems can make the cam signal too weak during cranking.

Does P0367 always mean the sensor is bad?

No. Wiring resistance, connector issues, and poor power or ground can create the same result.

Why is P0367 often worst during startup?

Because cranking is when signal strength and voltage stability are usually most marginal.
