I had my PPE headers and my JoeZ exhaust installed in August 2012 with new Walker O2 sensors everything was working great, but now I'm getting these CEL codes.

P1365 camshaft position actuator
P0031 heater control sensor bank 1 sensor 1

I just got this info back from PPE and my shop. The wires aren't melted and are plugged in. If the sensors were damaged and the O2 conditioner was wired in wrong wouldn't they have thrown those codes a long time ago?

Thanks for everyones input and help!


"Hi Don,

P0031 means that there is a short in the circuit for the O2 sensor's heater circuit. It is the sensor in the header on bank 1 (which is the driver's side I believe). Common causes are:

1.Wiring extension is melted or not plugged all the way in.

2.the sensor was dropped or hit and the heater inside has broken. This is common because the sensors are very fragile and will break internally if dropped on a hard surface. It would have to be replaced.

The P1365 is an unusual code for the ignition coil. The only thing I can think of for this code is that the O2 conditioner may have been wired into the wrong pin on the computer. I would check the connections on the conditioner and make sure they are correct.

 

Wow, I have never seen those codes before after a header install. Normally it is a o2 sim wiring problem. That would be my bet but those are not the normally codes you see with a incorrect wiring issue.
