    The document summarizes a malfunction with the sensor for camshaft position in the electrical system, with MID 128 and SID 21. The fault codes FMI 2, 3, and 9 indicate an irregular, intermittent, or incorrect signal value or permanent loss of the sensor signal, which could be due to a faulty sensor or faulty sensor circuit. This causes the engine to run unevenly, and be difficult to start or unable to start, as indicated by an orange flashing lamp in the alarm panel. The camshaft sensor is an inductive sensor that uses a toothed wheel on the camshaft to generate impulses and signal the engine control unit about which cylinder is next in line for injection.

    Circuit description
    Connector A
    (camshaft) The camshaft sensor is an inductive sensor. The
    camshaft sensor is used in the first instance to deter-
    mine the cylinder which is next in line for injection. A
    toothed wheel installed on the camshaft is used to de-
    termine the cylinder which is next in line for injection.
    The toothed wheel has 7 teeth, one for each cylinder
    plus an extra tooth for cylinder 1.
    When the camshaft with toothed wheel rotates, im-
    pulses are generated in the sensor. The impulses gen-
    erated a pulsed signal in the sensor which the engine
    control unit uses to determine the cylinder which is
    next in line for injection.
