Default troublecodes

I have a 2003 dodge 5.9 turbo my check engine light came on I had the codes read came up with P0541 Air Intake heater relay 1 circuit low, P0341 which is cam shaft postion sensor performance/ rationality, P0514 Battery temp sensor performance/ rationality. If some one could explain these to me it would be helpful thanks.

Wow, it could be a couple of things ....

You could have some bad sensors (big maybe), or you have the issue with the hot wire being rubbed on the high pressure A/C lines, and more than likely this is it.

Because of the way the 5VDC is needed on the 3rd gen trucks to run the sensors (cam shaft, battery temp, etc.) any issues with that wire will cause all kinds of weird sensor errors.

You probably have a spot worn through that wire and its grounding out so tape it up, put a wire loom over it, and it should be fine.
