I have a 2000 eclipse 2.4 auto rs. Car just shut off while driving. Scanned the mil and showed a code for the camshaft position sensor. Car owners father replaced the crankshaft position sensor (dunno why) and no start. Now I'm stuck with it. I can bridge power to the coils and it'll run but throws a p0300, random misfire. Without the bridged coil it won't start and now it shows P0335 for the crankshaft position sensor. Checked all wiring and everything is in order. Any suggestions?

This video may help ... the sensor is underneath the timing belt cover so it is a bit involved to get to ....

this link should be of assistance camshaft sensor troubleshoot Mitsubishi eclipse 2001 gt

don't spend money guessing
have the fault codes read first then fix what is indicated
could be an EVAP problem not venting the tank
could be a camshaft position sensor
could e a failed cat converter locking the exhaust

i have a 2000 eclipse and got a trouble shooting code p0340 for a camshaft position sensor. but my car dont have one?

This is probably not the camshaft sensor so much as the CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. You may want to run the codes on the car and make sure of what it is returning. You can have this done at most auto parts stores, for free.

Trouble Code: P1693 (2.0L L4 VIN 3 Auto)
MIL CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION Print this code data Number of Trips to Set Code: 2
OBD II Monitor Type: CCM Details
Indicators: MIL Details

• CCM Details
• MIL Details

Trouble Code Conditions:
KEY ON, AND THE PCM DETECTED AN UNEXPECTED VOLTAGE CONDITION ON THE TCM TO MIL CONTROL CIRCUIT DURING THE CCM TEST.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:

• MIL CONTROL CIRCUIT IS OPEN
  
• MIL CONTROL CIRCUIT IS SHORTED TO GROUND
  
• MIL CONTROL CIRCUIT IS SHORTED TO SYSTEM POWER (B+)
  
• MIL "BULB" IS OPEN OR MISSING
  
• PCM HAS FAILED
  

Possible Causes: (n/a)
2000 Kia Sportage - G 2.0 DOHC - POWERTRAIN - P1693 Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Control Circuit

if crank or cam sensor fails then it will cause hard time starting, shut off while driving, here are the fault codes--po340 is camshaft sensor. have car scanned at any auto parts place they will scan it for free. these two things will cause a problem code.

I need to locate the crank position sensor on a 2000 eclipse

P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Bank 1 or Single Sensor

P0700 Transmission Control System (MIL Request)

The code P1684 is real easy. The computer is stating that the battery has been disconnected within the last 50 starts.
