Check engine light coming on in the past few days, scangauge says code P0012, any one else have this problem and what did it end up to be, car is running normally...

If it does turn out to be a "Camshaft Position sensor" is this an unplug the old sensor, plug in a new sensor type of job?

I don't have info on the 05 Echo. On the 02 Echo the Cam Position Sensor is on the drivers side of the engine hidden by the Air Filter box. Just one electrical connector and one bolt. Bolt torque 71 in lb. Never had a problem with it.

Sounds fairly easy, i cleard the code and now i'll see how long it takes to come back on.
Wife said it started happening right after she filled the gas tank, i re tightened the gas cap and am now hopping that was the problem.
