Hello, I'm Danny.

Here is the information you requested. Those codes are related to the crankshaft position sensor and has nothing to do with the camshaft position sensor whatsoever. Here is a tutorial showing how to replace a crankshaft sensor:

I've attached picture steps below showing how to remove and replace the crankshaft position sensor including its location -circled in red- on your vehicle. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.

Well, I changed sensor light stays off while driving and engine runs better but every time I shut car off and restart check engine light comes on. After I reset it, it stays off .
