This is on '98 K2500, which now has a cam, 0411pcm, and 24x ignition, as well as 24x tune. Since making these mods, I keep getting 2 codes intermittently - P0706 and P0342. During the 0411 swap, I did install the 4 wires that tie into the transmission range switch (I spliced behind the gauge cluster and ran the wires to pcm). To address the P0342, I've replaced the camshaft position sensor on distributor, replaced the pigtail connector for the sensor, and ran a new low reference and signal wire to the pcm. The P0706 DTC does not trigger the CEL, but the P0342 does make CEL come on. I will be driving along and CEL will go out, and the P0342 DTC will not show up. Then, it randomly comes on again, and registers P0342 DTC.
The engine seems to run great, and starts just fine. When the P0342 triggers the CEL, there is no change (that I can detect) in engine performance. I don't like CEL's, and don't wont to get left stranded somewhere someday because of the P0342. I've tried everything I know to do to address and fix it.
Anyone have any ideas ?
