My car displayed the above error code with check engine,VSC lights.please where is the camshaft sensor B located, what might be responsible for this?
Thanks
LH Bank = front, RH Bank = firewall side, "Camshaft Position Sensor 'B' Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1)"
Unfortunately, Bank 1 = RH Bank, which is the firewall side, sensor B = exhaust cam, which is on the outside of the engine, so the cam closest to firewall, so it is the one at the very bottom of the pic RH bank, likely completely covered by intake manifold.
You might have some difficulty getting at them without removing the intake manifold. Follow threads here on how to change your rear spark plugs on how to do that, which if they have never been changed, may be a good time to do them.

Hoping for you it's #2 on the DTC list and not any of the others.
I took the car to my auto technician ,he was able to locate the defective sensor.unfortunately,the ones that were available locally didn't work had to place an order for it.The performance of the car is poor hence I had to park it until the sensor replacement.
The car is RX 350 07 MODEL,137,000 KM
Will update you as soon as the issues are resolved

Not sure about the RX350 2GR motor but on the RX330 3MZ motor a dead or unplugged cam sensor will light the dash up and throw an error code.
and if I remember correctly cams ran fully retarded as seen on the oscilloscope when I unplugged cam sensors, so I can see why poor mpg.
PS- older RX330 only has the intake cam sensors and btw just a guess for the poor mpg so hopefully other have ideas on this...
