My check engine light came on so i had advanced auto hook up reader and got p0016 cam/crankshaft position correlation sensor A Bank 1. what part do i need to buy. they didn't have that code in their book

cut off = engine stalls p0016(vvt failures) did you look this up first? in a real kia book?
spectra not spectra5
no engine size told. hummmm, 2.0L Automatic?
autozoned parts are junk, china cloned parts are.
so guessing and adding bad parts gets you where? double bad now.

BOOK words to follow

Trouble Code: P0016 (2.0L L4 VIN - Auto)
Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (Bank 1 Sensor A)and read this.
The CVVT (Continuously Variable Valve Timing) system is installed to the chain sprocket of the intake camshaft. This system controls the intake camshaft to provide the optimal valve timing. The PCM controls the Oil Control Valve(OCV), based on the signals output from mass air flow, throttle position and engine coolant temperature. The CVVT controller regulates the intake camshaft angle using oil pressure through the OCV. PCM monitors timing misalignment while no active faults are present and fully warmed up engine oil at idle. If the timing is misaligned PCM determines that a fault exists and a DTC is stored. Possible Causes:

• * Oil level, pressure and condition
• * OCV
• * CVVT
• * Timing mark alignment

note their words, 4 thing wrong, here, VVT is bad.

cam shaft sensor error is
Trouble Code: P0340 (2.0L L4 VIN - Auto)
Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction and you never got that code,

P0016 - Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (Bank 1 Sensor A)
*You need to get this repaired as soon as possible!* This trouble code refers to the sensors reading the cam on the top of the engine and the crank shaft in the bottom of the engine. This helps keep the fuel mixture and fuel timing at it's best. The car's ECU is getting a bad reading from one or both of the sensors.

code p 0016 refers to crankshaft (CKP) position/cam shaft (CMP)position --bank 1 sensor A---correlation===causes --wiring--CKP sensor ---CMP sensor --mechanical fault
what that means that when the piston is in a certain and reports to the ECM then the camshaft sensor has to report the position of the cam shaft so that the two are in the correct position in relation to each other ( camshfat timing)
could be problem wires , dirty connections or failing sensors
The mechanical fault could be that the camshaft advance /retard operation has failed and throwing the correlation out

DTC P0016: Crankshaft Position (CKP) - Intake Camshaft Position (CMP) Correlation Bank 1
DTC P0017: Crankshaft Position (CKP) - Exhaust Camshaft Position (CMP) Correlation Bank 1

• An actuator that is in the full advance or retard position can cause this DTC to set.
• The presence of DTCs P0008 and P0009 along with P0016, P0017, P0018, and P0019 indicates a possible condition with the primary timing chain and the alignment between both intermediate sprockets and the crankshaft. Or, the crankshaft reluctor wheel has moved and is no longer referenced to top dead center (TDC).
• Observing the desired and actual camshaft angle parameters, with a scan tool before a DTC sets, may help to isolate whether a condition is specific to one camshaft, one bank, or caused by a condition with the primary crankshaft timing.

Now do you want to change a sensor an have it not fix the problem .

I think your sensors are pattern parts and the readings /resistances are not the same as the original parts ,try some bosch units is my first suggestion ,

here are all poss causes of check engine light.

the computer may need to be reflashed. if it is running then it is not a bad sensor. either of those being bad would cause it not to run.

Take it to Autozone or Advanced auto and get an engine diagnostic and ask them to printout the results. Most times it's a sensor.
