P0365 - Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
Hello CL, here is my unique situation, I have a 2007 ES350 with 90k miles. Purchased in August. I had ignition coil go out and decided to change them all and the spark plugs. When changing cylinder 5’s coil and plug, I tried to push the wiring harness out of the way to remove the coil. Result, I moved the wiring harness too far and disconnected the 3 wires (black, yellow and red) that were connected to the cam position sensor connector. (i should’ve just removed the sensor SMH) I disassembled the connector, got it down the internal pins, soldered the pins to the wires, placed the pins back in the connector and reassembled it with the wires in the order that they appeared to originally be. Plugged it back in and put everything back in place. Started the car and code P0352 was cleared but replaced with code P0365 Camshaft Position Sensor B - Bank 1 Circuit Malfunction. I'm thinking, either I put that pins back in the wrong order or one of the wires isn’t properly soldered in. Either way, I ordered another connector and it should be here tomorrow.
HERE’S WHAT I NEED
Either a wiring diagram or
If anyone happens to have a picture of the camshaft position sensor closest to cylinder 5 connected with the wires in the proper order (which would be AWESOME, but I probably have a better chance of winning the lottery).
Also open to any other suggestions (that don’t have the word “dealership” in them lol)
THANKS

UPDATE: So, the camshaft position sensor connector from Rock Auto was NOT the correct part. Several sites have the same part listed as compatible with the 2007 ES, but it's not. I ended up, disassembling the original connector again and doing surgery on it. Here's the pic I'm sending to Rock Auto so they can issue a refund. The correct one is on the right.

How did you unpin this connector? I cant seem to open it up with my terminal tools. Is there a special tool for these connectors or just some trick I'm unaware of?

do you want to simply unplug connector from the sensor (usually a push down on something, sometimes a pull up something) or do you want to rewire the connector itself, in which case Ill send u some wiring harness repair info w the special homemade tool to pop open the terminal connector info
