another camshaft position sensor question
I was driving my 02 Cruiser yesterday when it died suddenly. It had a 340 code, and I have replaced the camshaft position sensor. Do I need to reset the PCM before the car might start? It hasn't started yet, but I didn't pull the battery for long when I changed out the sensor -- really less than 30 seconds to tell the truth, so the code is still in the memory.
Is there a visual check I can do to see if it is the timing belt? I have about 144K on the car, but this engine (I had a replacement put in about two years ago thanks to a defective head) has about 50K on it if that, and I am assuming that the belt was new when they put it in.
Thanks for any help. Of course this ahapepned at the most inconvenient possible time, but I was amazed at how easy the sensor replacement was. It's the only reachable part I have run into on this car!
Thanks,

Thanks for the tip -- it was a broken timing belt. and I think I have been really lucky to find a great local mechanic shop less than a mile by my house.
Thanks for the help. This looks like a great resource.
Thanks again!
