Default Trying to clear code P0368, cam position sensor...

I'm getting a OBD code of P0368 from my 2009 LS 460, "Camshaft position sensor "B" circuit high input (bank 1)". I believe this to be located on the drivers side of the engine over the exhaust cam under the air box, is this accurate? After replacing the sensor I still get the same P0368 code that won't clear. I've checked the obvious stuff like broken wires, bent pins, etc. all looks good. What else should I try? Thanks

It's unclear to me what's happening here. Did you replace the sensor? If so, why are you unsure of location? If you had a shop replace it, why didn't they further diagnose the issue and code?

There are 2 cam sensors on each bank. Make sure you've replaced the correct one.
Manual is really vague about which one is "B" but that dtc should cover the 'VVT sensor'.
Diagram shows 'camshaft sensor' as being closer one to the front of the vehicle/vvti-e motor and 'VVT sensor' as one located about middle of the valve cover. BUT at same time other diagram shows 'vvt sensor' as 'vvt sensor for intake', whereas DTC covers 'vvt sensor for exhaust side'. Go figure... I'd be pulling live data at this point.
