code p 0016 refers to crank shaft or cam shaft position sensor bank 1 sensor A----correlation===causes ---wiring---CKP sensor--- Cam sensor--- mechanical fault
Usually the crank shaft position sensor is located on the top of the transmission bell housing, on the back side right next to the top of the motor. Do you have a trouble code?
Code 16 is for a problem where the correlation between the crank sensor and the cam sensor for bank one is off. So yes it could be the cam sensor or the timing belt. If compression is normal on all 6 cylinders I would expect to find a bad sensor.
timing belt is off by a tooth or two. you probably didn\'t have to replace the coolant sensor; that code sets whenever the sensor is disconnected and the ignition is turned on; and it needs to be reset by disconnecting the battery or with a code reader. anyway, the crank/ cam sensors are out of sync. if you\'ve got the twin cam engine, they are a royal pain to get the belt to lay properly on the two cams.
Have you ever replaced the timing belt?? If not the problem is likely to be a loose worn out timing belt. A floppy belt will play havoc with the sensor signals and trigger a check engine light and a camshaft sensor code.
The crank sensor is in the top of bell housing of the transmission towards the back of the engine compartment. The cam sensor is built into the distributor.
