Default tail lights on. Camshaft Pos sens(p0340)and o2 sens (p0057)runs in limp mode.. HELP!!

I got an 03 touring 350z 6 speed. and the car is running limp mode i believe.

Dashboard lights are SES, and randomly VDC OFF and SLIP out of nowhere.

Has barely any power whatsoever.
im throwing a p0340 code which is camshaft position sensor. bank A sensor 1.
also throwing p0057 code which is o2 sensor bank 2 sensor 2.

Also when im driving the brake lights stay on (not on dashboard) actual lights on rear of car. they stay on whether im braking or accelerating. HELPP

Thanks for time to look into it. Appreciate it in advance.

replace your camshaft position sensor its an easy do it your self and only costs like 50-60 bucks for the p0340 had the exact same issue thats why your getting the lsd and slip lights, it also probably sound off when you start the car like its not firing for a second. as for the 02 sensor code it could be a leak that the sensor is decting or just a bad sensor. also a pretty easy DIY and not more then 110$ for the sensor and tool to replace.

Don't know if you guys are aware that there is a recall on the camshaft and crank sensors, they will replace both. This applies to 03's
