Crankshaft Position Sensor on 3.6L Jeep Engine with the Driveway Mechanic
Hello Lifers,
Driveway mechanic, Frank is out with another fix!!! This little project includes some diagnostics and maintence. Frank tackles the removal and installation of a Crankshaft position sensor.
During the diagnostics Frank discovered that his Jeep tripped engine codes: P0339 which is crank position sensor malfunction, P0300 which is multiple cylinder misfire, with a couple more other codes that all related to the crank position sensor malfunction.

After about a month of herking and jerking on the highway my Jeep finally threw codes same ones as yours. I originally thought it might be an 02 sensor because I pulled a code just once for one. So probably replace both just to be safe I gotta 2012 107k Awesome video! Definitely made me a subscriber glad I found you!

Just replaced my CPS on my 2013 Wrangler Sahara. Last Friday morning it stalled out on me at a bad spot, but started up again after sitting for 5 minutes in the middle of a highway. Ran great all weekend plus Monday, but then conked out at the same spot on Tuesday morning. Hopefully this sorts out the issue. This video was instrumental in making this an easy job, even at 10pm in the dark. :D

My 2014 Wrangler JKU Rubicon just threw this code when I started it up last week.... P0335. I only have 58k miles on mine.
So, did you have to lift the lock tab on the connector or squeeze it? This is a great video! Thanks for getting in there with the camera.
I appreciated the video. I'm trying to do the same thing on my 2018 1.4 liter jeep renegade latitude. Any suggestions on where it would be? Thanks!
Thank you

I just replaced my camshaft position sensor bank one after getting the dreaded lights and the engine going into limp mode, now going to replace the crankshaft position sensor with an OEM Mopar part, then reprogram things with my Jscan app. My engine was also cutting out at very low speeds, hope this works.

@thebrucechannel8061 did it work? My 16 jku does same thing. It's also RHD because I deliver mail... it's so annoyingly frustrating. it was doing the limp mode before the code for Crankshaft sensor came on my snapon scanner. Camshaft sensors have been replaced dozens of times. The wires have been done and I can't figure it out. Odd thing is I bought a second 2016 RHD as a back up and does the same thing 😅🤯

@@courtneystout8190I saw someone with these issues and the guy claims it was his ECU. He opened it up and notice the pins were barely soldered so all he did was add solder to them and fixed his stalling issues.
My 2014 JKU had the idle just drop to zero while driving on the highway. Still had power but nothing even when downshifting (6 speed manual). I was able to just turn it off and back on and had normal idle again. I’ve had CEL on for wheel sensor and crankshaft position (PO018) that comes on randomly. I’ll see how it drives tonight when I get out of work. Hoping the fix suggested in this video might solve it if it happens again.
I'm fixing to change mine. It has misfiring at around 3500 rpms ar wide open throttle and I can herea it on deceleration. It's really quite random. I already change my spark plugs and that didn't help. Hopefully this is it. If not I'll move on to injectors or coils.
Hi When climbing hills, the RBM level decreases by itself.I'm having a problem with my Jeep Wrangler.
Wondering if that would be the cause of a P0340 or the p0018 that just happened
I know this fix at least two to three years old but is there two of these camshaft sensors on JK/JKU 3.6L ?
Did you jeep ever go into limp mode? My 09 jk rubicon goes into limp mode every other start unless I wait 10 minutes
If I changed this sensor will it increase my gas mileage . Also I never got a code for this anyway I just read that this could be a reason to having low gas mileage . Just curious for your opinion or anyone else
I got about 169K on my 2013, i’ve never replaced this, but when I’m accelerating, sometimes I feel a little bit of a power drain, but then it kicks back up the further i press the pedal, not all the time though. could this be causing my problem as well?
Is there a way to test which sensor needs replacing? I ordered the part only to find out that there are 2. I don't live in the US and the auto parts stores where I am do not keep them in stock.

Through a Vehicle diagnostic reader/code reader you would be able to see which sensor needs to be replaced.
So I have a question I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler is going to let mood in the camshaft position sensor keep coming on

So one of our Co-Hosts had this and actually go get it checked out at a dealer because this can mean your timing is off in the motor and could be causing harm to the motor.
I'm having the same issue...sort of. I have a 2017 JKU. I've lost power a few times, but the Jeep doesn't stall and fires right back up. The last time that it happened, I was rolling along at 60mph and just shifted to neutral, turned the key and just kept going. Am I having the same issue? I should also mention that the check engine light has not come on.

Hi Frank, thanks for the video, I'm about to change my sensor as well. Question please, how do you get the connector off the sensor? I've watched a couple of other videos as well, and everyone say "just pop it off", but my connector is on pretty tight, I can't just pop it off by hand. Any thoughts? Thank you!
