VW Gold GTI (P0343) camshaft position sensor A circuit high

[jackgibb]

thanks for sorting that for my friend Matt, a second new sensor has sorted the issue.. best of avoiding Starline

Nice one. Best to use OEM more expensive, but less risk and also avoids one chasing down the garden path.

Good Diagnosis Matt, I’d say it is a Starline sensor from the ‘S’ on it. They are extremely bad quality, well done 💪💪

Just short the SIgnal Line to ground and look if the Scantool reports a curcuit low Code....

Nice Diagnosis matt. Someone must have put a after market part in at sometime, there junk
