Volvo S40 Sensor Problem





Car did not pass inspection one code read DTC P0014 "B" camshaft position..
Engine ligth is staying on for a year , when I ask for new camshaft sensor partsman and mechanic told me this may not solve a problem . First check block oil passage; HOW I do that engine has no oil leak or burn oil How can I fix this problem?
I believe camshaft sensor was replace three years ago it is common falty ligth stay on.
lately car doesn't start on first turn is litle delay.

the sensor fails from sludge in the oil passage from lack of maintenance. you need the oil system completely flushed out, then replace the sensor and keep you fingers crossed
