About P0369

P0369 is a generic (obd-ii standard) powertrain diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the P-prefix family of codes, which covers engine, transmission, emissions, or fuel-system faults.

When P0369 is stored, the module has detected a bank-specific fault, meaning it applies only to one cylinder bank of a multi-bank engine; and a sensor-related fault — the reported value from the named sensor is out of spec.

Scanning & clearing: A generic OBD-II scan tool will usually read and clear powertrain (P) codes. For live data, freeze-frame capture, and bi-directional tests you may need a more capable scan tool that supports the vehicle's ECM protocol.

Because P0369 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.

Code Information

The powertrain control module (PCM) sets P0369 when it detects an intermittent or erratic signal from the camshaft position (CMP) sensor 'B' (exhaust camshaft) for Bank 1. This may be due to loose connections, wiring faults, or a failing sensor, causing inconsistent timing data. Symptoms may include rough running, hesitation, misfires, or difficulty starting.
