here's the problem and i need help bad.. this would be my first time working on my truck. i was driving in traffic and all of a sudden my truck dies. it is a 2002 nissan frontier XE V6 SOHC crew cab truck 4x4. love my truck and i really need help getting her back on the road again. so here's what ive done so far. i tried to remove the timing belt cover (no avail) so i need help on that.reason being for the timing belt is in need of changing since it's due and would like to experience it for future reference. it seems that i have multiple issues. i ran an ODB tester on my truck and came up with these codes. in this order

1. P0340- camshaft position sensor A circuit bank 1or single sensor
2. P0430- Catalyst system efficiency below threshold Bank 2
3. P0328- knock sensor circuit high bank 1 or single sensor

if anyone would help thank you so much. and also thank you all for taking the time to read and assist me on my issues.
