p0340 for camshaft sensors

Car died while driving on Monday and TCS and slip light are on now. Also it takes a while to get the car started. Yesterday I got two p0340 codes. Do I have to change the crankshaft sensor when I change other ones. Did anyone buy them online cuz stealership wants $120 each.

No you don't need to change the other sensors (just the one CPS sensor that is acting up) The aftermarket ones are cheeper but I did have an issue with the one I originally bought with fitting properly, So I did go with the OEM replacement

You can go aftermarket as long as it's Hitachi. They are the OEM for those sensors. Try rockauto for one. They should have what you're looking for. Otherwise, get it from courtesy parts or something like that. They typically have the best parts.

You can also try nissanpartsasap.com. I've noticed they are cheaper every so often when I'm looking for parts. It's a dealer based in Tennessee if I remember correctly.
