Is this a common problem we these vehicles? Is it easily fixable? What does this repair involve doing? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Jeremy

I searched your vehicle's recall and TSB lists and did not see this code as a common trouble. This code indicates CMP (Camshaft Position) sensor and CKP (Crankshaft Position) sensor incorrect phase is detected. This code is normally caused by a faulty CMP sensor or faulty wiring to the sensor. However it may also be that the timing belt has jumped. Most likely it is a faulty sensor. Have sensors tested and replace as necessary.

Thnx for the quick response.
My mechanic thinks that in order to get 2 these sensors that he would have 2 tear appart the bottom of the engine, is this correct? It is not something that he wants to do. He said I would have to take it to a Honda Dealer for service.
Any sugestions would help, please. I need to do this the least expensive way.

Thanks again,

Jeremy

All he needs to do in order to replace the CMP sensor is to remove the air cleaner and EGR valve. Then disconnect the sensor connector and remove the attached bolt. The sensor will then come out of the intake camshaft side of the cylinder head.
