2005 chrysler sebring 2.4 L camshaft position sensor: will pay for it's exact location and replacement procedure.

Trouble Code: P0340

No Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Failure

Possible Causes:


CMP Sensor connector is damaged, open or it is shortedCMP Sensor signal circuit is open or shorted to ground or to battery voltage or 5v supply circuitCMP Sensor 5v supply circuit is open or shorted to ground or to battery voltageCMP Sensor ground circuit is openCMP Sensor is damaged or has failedCKP Sensor is damaged or has failedPCM has failed.Here's a link to your sensor.

I think you are referring to either a Crankshaft position sensor or a Camshaft position sensor. I've included a tutorial video below:

On the 2.4l there are two cam sensors. They are located on both sides, rear of the engine, just under the valve/rocker arm covers. They are bolted on with one 10mm bolt.

It is located under the starter that is for a 4 cylinder engine if you are a six cylinder or 2.7 it is located on the rear of the transmission housing above the differential housing

P1684 The battery has been disconnected within the last 50 starts.

P0340


This indicates that a problem was detected in the camshaft position sensor circuit. Since it says circuit, that means the problem could lie in any part of the circuit - the sensor itself, the wiring, or the PCM. Don't just replace the CPS (camshaft position sensor) and think that will definitely fix it.
Symptoms Symptoms can include:

• Hard starting or no start
• Rough running / misfiring
• Loss of engine power

Causes A code P0340 could mean one or more of the following has happened:

• a wire or connector in the circuit could be grounded/shorted/broken
• the camshaft position sensor may have failed
• the PCM may have failed
• there exists an open circuit
• the crankshaft position sensor may have failed

Possible Solutions With a P0340 OBD-II trouble code, diagnosis can be tricky at times. Here are some things to try:

• Visually inspect all the wiring and connectors in the circuit
• Check for continuity in the circuit wiring
• Check the operation (voltage) of the camshaft position sensor
• Replace the camshaft position sensor as required
• Check the crankshaft position circuit as well
• Replace circuit wiring and/or connectors as required
• Diagnose/replace the PCM as required

Try substatutting the ignition module with a known goog one.Also have the camshaft CIRCUIT checked at the camshsft sensor plug in, for propper voltage.The code P0340 indicates a circuit malfunction not a sensor malfunction. Good luck.

camshaft position sensor is at the back end of the camshaft. should be just across from the battery.

check code probable p0340 camshaft position sensor. I have the same problem on 2005 sebring sedan. I was told to check the circuit at the crankshaft and camshaft sensors for the proper voltage. I'm still trying to figure mine out. If you find your answer, let me know.

the camshaft sensor is not sold separately for a 2.5 engine,it is mounted in the distributor and you would have to replace the whole distributor!

sounds like a cam position sensor to me. Contact a chrysler dealer to have it replaced as the guy you have been seeing must not know how to.
