The Van has been idling rough for the last month, nothing to bad like stalling, but low rpms and such. Yesterday while stopping at a light it turned off, no noises, no warnings, and that was it, wont restart. I pulled p code off this morning, and replaced the cam position sensor, cleared the code, and still does not start. Where should we go from here troubleshooting wise? After reading around, I was thinking crank position sensor, as it's fairly cheap to replace. Sort by Oldest first Oldest first Newest first Most reactions. While the sensor is decidedly part of the circuit, you need to test the wires between the sensor and the PCM. You also need to look for corrosion at any applicable electrical connectors. I don't think your rough idle problem is related to the cam sensor failure. Is your code reader just a code reader or is it an actual scan tool that can look at live data?

Please consider creating a new thread. Is cam phaser replacement even something I can do without an engine lift or a bunch of other specialty tools?

I installed a new air filter over the weekend and took out the battery to clean the terminals. Went for a drive after this maintenance. Read up on the internet on this code.

We recommend Torque Pro. A properly running engine is essentially the precise timing of gasoline-fueled explosions. Depending on engine speed RPM and load the engine control unit ECU controls the timing and amount of fuel injection, timing of spark ignition, and in the case of engines with variable valve timing VVT , intake- and exhaust-valve timing adjustments. If there are two banks on a VVT-equipped engine, then there will be two camshaft position sensors. The camshaft position sensor reacts to a toothed wheel on the camshaft, which gives the ECU constant information on its speed and position. Sensor A indicates that the malfunction is occurring with the camshaft position sensor circuit that pertains to the intake camshaft. Sensor B codes pertain to the exhaust camshaft. Here are some of the most common. Before you just jump right on a new sensor, make sure you can rule out the rest of the system, first.

This also resets the check engine light. ArcF1 8 Replies. Deals Forum. Forum Jump. These numbers were not affected by wire wiggling. The dead cruise control is an anomaly that seems to point away from the cam sensor. Put the old oem cam position sensor, used. Installed with battery negative lead disconnected. Keep in mind that the supply wire and the ground wire splice off to many other sensors. I was beginning to think the pcm was a bit forgetful particularly after leaving it disconnected from the battery for over an hour.

One of the more common engine management trouble codes that can occur in the Dodge Caravan is P

But before you start throwing parts at this, check oil level and oil condition. I think? Thread Tools. The time now is AM. Tested the signals multimeter coming out of the cam position sensor with it plugged in and engine running. Recommended Communities. BUt you really need a scope to see actual CMP performance. View Public Profile. Reading through the forums the last day or two points me to cam phasers. Negative lead on multimeter on battery - positive lead on plug: one outside lead showed 5. This worked before the battery terminal cleaning. Yes, the van lives in the north with a lot of salt on the roads.
