I need to replace the can sensor because I received the P0340 code. I am wondering where the sensor is located and how much trouble is it to replace?

Hi,

I attached the procedure on how to replace the CMP sensor. I also attached the procedure for this code because there are other causes then just the sensor. If you want to be sure then run through the test and then you can replace it if you confirm it.

Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks
