What is CID 915:

cid 915 refers to an issue with the camshaft position sensor circuit. the ecm detects incorrect or missing camshaft signal, affecting timing and ignition synchronization.

Why This Happens:

  • faulty camshaft position sensor.
  • shorted or damaged wiring harness.
  • loose connectors or poor contact.
  • timing belt or chain misalignment.
  • ecm failure to interpret signal correctly.

How to Fix It:

  1. inspect camshaft sensor for visible damage.
  2. test the sensor’s voltage signal using a multimeter.
  3. check timing belt alignment for deviation.
  4. replace the sensor if signal remains inconsistent.
  5. reset ecm and verify synchronization.

How to Avoid It Before It Happens:

  • maintain proper timing belt replacement intervals.
  • inspect camshaft sensor and connectors during service.
  • keep wiring free of oil contamination.
  • clue’s equipment maintenance services help monitor timing sensors and prevent synchronization issues before they escalate.
