came up with:
po147 02 heater circuit bank 1 sensor 3

po155 02 heater circuit bank 2 sensor 1

po340 camshaft position problem

this truck uses different 02 sensors from what the parts guy said. how do i know where the above is?

second, camshaft sensor has a problem? so it must have failed or is there a way to test it? thanks
 
just did a bunch of work to it. codes where in there when my friend pluged it.doesnt run to good. want to make this truck 100% going to drive it everyday soon. i hope thanks
 
P0340 is the code for Cam position sensor malfunction. It is most likely the reason your truck is running bad. ECM need it to set timing and fuel. Check your connections to the Cam PS. If everything looks OK as far as the wireing. The sensor is prolly bad.

The O2 sensor heater circut codes, as said, usually wont affect how the engine runs.
Bank 1 sensor 3. Is usually the sensor after the cat.
Bank 2 sensor 1. Is the sensor before the cat on the passenger side (right bank)
the codes are telling you the O2 sensors are not heating up. Not a big deal. Without the 02 sensor heaters working. )2 sensor will just take longer to heat up and start working. However because the codes are emission related, will cause the CEL to light.
Check/clean the 02 sensor connectors. Then clear the codes.
If the CEL keeps coming on. You will have to Replace the sensors to get rid of the codes.
FYI Bank 1 = side of engine with #1 cylinder.
Bank 2 = side of engine with #2 cylinder
02 sensor number is the sensors position in the exhaust stream.
