Hi Amylia Nice to see you today! I'm sorry to hear you are having this problem. I know this can be frustrating. Amylia, does your Chevy have the 3.4L or the 3.8L [engine](/topics-engine-chevy/)?

Perfect. Thank-you, Amylia. Please give me one moment to type out some information for you. Sit tight one minute... I'll be right back!
Thanks for holding, Amylia.
The P0341 is a fairly straight forward code pointing to a problem with the Camshaft Position Sensor. On this vehicle, the sensor is located on the top, passenger's side of the engine, below the power steering pump. To gain access, the power steering pump will need to be unmounted and moved aside. For an image location view, click here: <u><strong><a href="https://bit.ly/2YBdvvn" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://bit.ly/2YBdvvn</a></strong></u>. Carefully inspect the electrical connector and wire harness for any loose, broken or damaged wires. If no problems are found, replace the camshaft position sensor. To replace- move the power steering pump aside. Unplug the electrical connector. Remove the mounting bolt. Remove the sensor from the engine.
