Default camshaft position sensor replacement.

I have replaced both bank 1 &2 camshaft position sensors but the car still died in the middle of an intersection. TCS and slip light came back on. I was going have my codes read again today at autozone to see if showing the same thing like maybe i got bad sensors from them. But has anyone else experienced this issue?

did you replace with OEM sensors or ones from vatozone? when it comes to sensors, i try to stick to oem. where in TX are you?

after looking at your pic, guessing you are in the dfw metroplex (the phone number on the van). i would order them from courtesyparts.com, and pick them up will call at courtesy nissan off of 75

Are you posting from two different forum IDs?

While the parts stores won't erase the codes, use the manual method. With the key in the ignition, quickly turn it to the accessory mode (dash lights on-no ignition) and back to off, six times in a row. The seventh time, just start your Z and see if a CEL appears once again. This method usually erases all ECM, BCM and ABS codes in memory.
