Ahh ok. So I returned the one I bought at autozone and got another one from them and have the same exact problem. Then, I tried yet another one from autozone and the same problem.
I went to advance auto parts and bought one from them. SAME problem.

When I put this new camshaft position sensor in and screw it in my car wont start. When I unscrew it my car starts.

When I put the old one back in - the car starts up fine but runs poorly.

A guy at advance said that he thinks that the new sensor is throwing off the old sensor so I either need to replace them both or try a genuine Nissan part. The problem is that it's an aftermarket that I removed in the first place.

Also, I'm doing this all myself because I can't afford to bring it to a mechanic so I learned how to change bank 2 on youtube.

Do I need to change bank one and two at the same time or just use a genuine Nissan part for bank 2.

I can't afford to do both banks with Nissan parts because the part is double the price.
Also, if I put the new Nissan part in - will it throw off the other sensor in bank 1???

Thanks for the help everyone...

My codes are P0011 P0012

It came up as bank 2 camshaft position sensor.
