Question Honda Accord 04 monitors not incomplete

I got fed up with drive cycle. My Oxygen Monitor, Catalytic monitor and EGR monitors not getting complete after sevreal drive. I have chnaged O2 sesnor Bank 1 sensor#2 and Cam sensor Bank 1 but still getting code P0341 after erasing. My question is that does code P0341 stop to not complete Oxygen monitor, catalyst Monitor and EGR monitor? These three monitors are always showing incomplete.

The copde P0341 is showing as CAM Position Sensor A ckt RNG/Perform BNK1. Is there any serious issue that this code is not going? Or Just I need to drive 300 or 400 miles to get my O2, Catalytic, and EGR get ready? Please help me.

Each system or sensor monitor has specific criteria to set readiness codes. The detected/existing DTC P0341 may be the reason the readiness codes are not set to complete.

Wishful thinking if you thought changing the O2 sensor and cam sensor would resolve DTC P0341.

P0341 is directly related to cam phase (camshaft phase plates are not in sync with each other). The code will appear if the chain is stretched or timing is off.

You probably have to bring into a shop. A damaged or stretched cam chain by measuring the clearance between the cam chain and the cam chain autotensioner arm with a cam chain inspection gauge. If that clearance is more than 4.3 mm, you’ve got a bad chain and will need to replace it along with the cam chain auto-tensioner. Hopefully, there isn't other damage yet.

If there is a P0341, the issue should be taken care of sooner than later, as it will not get better with time. Instead, you may end up with an engine that needs replacement due to bent valve, etc.

Infrequent oil changes and/or low oil levels can cause the issue.

If chain stretched then replace before it breaks, if timing off then timing needs to be reprogrammed. It sounds to me like you need to get the car to a Honda specialist before you go throwing much more money at it and find out what the deal is. It could be something simple or complex, but you wont know until a Honda specialist looks at it.

Acutally, one year back when check engine light came then one of Mufler shop guy replaced O2 sensor and Cam sensor and he gave old one as he menitioned that. But when I came to NY and Inspection was not passed becau check ehine light on. After diagonestic, I came to know that Guy did replaced any sensor just he put black tape to cover check engine light on. I was keep driving in check engine light on and my car is running in good condition without any problem. I have chaged O2 sesnor Bank 1 sensor#2 and Cam sensor Bank 1 but still getting code P0341as soon as I start engine. After driving 100 miles its still shoing P0341 code and Oxygen monitor, catalyst Monitor and EGR monitor are incomplete. The copde P0341 is showing as CAM Position Sensor A ckt RNG/Perform BNK1. Please advice me how can make ready these three monitors.
