Common Causes of P0367
Parts most likely causing this code, ranked by probability
A faulty camshaft position sensor sends an incorrect or no signal to the engine computer, causing the 'circuit low' code.
80% of P0367 cases are fixed by replacing this sensor
Damaged, corroded, or loose wiring and connectors to the camshaft position sensor can cause a low voltage signal.
15% of P0367 cases are fixed by repairing wiring or connectors
A rare internal fault within the engine computer can incorrectly interpret the sensor signal as low.
5% of P0367 cases are fixed by replacing the ECM/PCM
Check These First (Before Buying Parts)
- Visually inspect the wiring harness and connector leading to the camshaft position sensor 'B' for any signs of damage, fraying, or corrosion. Ensure the connector is securely seated.
How to Diagnose P0367
- 1Visually inspect the camshaft position sensor 'B' and its wiring harness for any obvious damage, fraying, or loose connections.
- 2Check the electrical connector for corrosion or bent pins. Clean or repair as needed.
- 3Using a multimeter, test the voltage supply to the sensor and the signal output. Compare readings to manufacturer specifications.
- 4If voltage and wiring are good, remove the camshaft position sensor and inspect it for physical damage or debris.
- 5If all other checks pass, consider testing the ECM/PCM, though this is a rare cause.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does P0367 mean?
P0367 indicates that the engine's computer (ECM/PCM) has detected a low voltage signal from the Camshaft Position Sensor 'B' on Bank 1. This sensor monitors the camshaft's rotation, which is critical for engine timing.
Can I drive with P0367?
Limit driving, fix within a few days. This code can cause your engine to stall unexpectedly or fail to start, which creates dangerous situations on the road. Avoid long trips or highways.
Will P0367 clear itself?
No, P0367 will not clear itself. The underlying electrical or sensor fault must be repaired. Once the repair is complete, you will need a scan tool to clear the code and turn off the Check Engine Light.
How do I fix P0367 myself?
Start by inspecting the sensor's wiring and connector for damage or corrosion. If they look good, replace the Camshaft Position Sensor 'B'. After replacement, clear the code with a scan tool.
How much does it cost to fix P0367?
A DIY repair for P0367 typically costs $50-$200 for the sensor and basic tools. Professional repair at a shop costs $150-$500, including parts and labor.
P0367 keeps coming back - why?
If P0367 keeps returning, it indicates the initial repair did not address the root cause. This often means the wiring or connector was the actual problem, not just the sensor, or there is a rare ECM/PCM issue.
Will P0367 fail emissions/smog test?
Yes, P0367 will cause your vehicle to fail an emissions or smog test. The Check Engine Light being on automatically results in a failure in states with inspection programs.
What's the difference between P0367 and P0365?
P0367 specifically indicates a 'low' circuit signal for Camshaft Position Sensor 'B' on Bank 1. P0365 is a more general code for 'Camshaft Position Sensor 'B' Circuit' on Bank 1, meaning there's an issue with the circuit but not specifying if it's low, high, or an intermittent signal.
P0367 on Ford F-150?
On Ford F-150s, P0367 is commonly caused by a failing camshaft position sensor. The sensor location can vary by engine (e.g., 3.5L EcoBoost vs. 5.0L V8), but replacement is a straightforward fix once the sensor is located.
Questions to Ask Your Mechanic
Did you check the voltage supply and signal output from the camshaft position sensor 'B' with a multimeter or oscilloscope?
Good answer: Yes, I confirmed the sensor is receiving proper voltage and the signal output is either absent or consistently low, indicating a faulty sensor or wiring.
What did you find when you inspected the wiring harness and connector for the sensor?
Good answer: I thoroughly checked the wiring for any breaks, chafing, or corrosion, and the connector for bent pins or looseness. Everything looked solid, which points to the sensor itself.
