Its a 2003 Chrysler Sebring, sedan, 2.4L X-model and my crankshaft position sensor is defective. I'm trying to replace it myself and can't find where its located on the engine to replace it. Is there any way you can help me out, i had my motor replaced 7 months ago and then my transmission went out and just had that replaced, so its put a pretty big hole in my pocket and that sensor is the only thing thats keeping me from being able to drive it. Is there any advise you can give me or even any diagrams on where its at so i can get my car back on the road?

Hi Allen,here's a you tube video showing where your sensor is and to replace. 2008 Chrysler Sebring 3 4 crankshaft position sensor locati

- the PCM is located in the left side of the engine compartment, beside the Power Distribution Center (PDC).

- the Crankshaft Position Sensor is located: under hood, driver side, upper engine area, mounted on end of engine block

Hope helps; remember to rating this answer and leave some testimonial comments.

P0340 - Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction

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 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


Test it and keep us updated.

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 1997 Chrysler Sebring 2.5L has a distributer with an intergrated coil. All other models have a distributerless ignition ("coil packs").

Start by testing the ASD (Automatic Shut Down) relay, then the CPS (Crankshaft Position Sensor) and CMH (Camshaft Position Sensor).

The CMH test the same way likethe CPS; the ASD is located on cowl, at left rear of engine compartment.

Hope helps.

I wasn't able to find out the first engine code, but the other one is a multiple or random misfire. and crankshaft position sensor a circuit. If the car has a distributor you could tried replacing the cap rotor and also wires first. Next you would look at the crankshaft position sensor try unplugging and plugging it back in. Look at the connection and wires to make sure they look OK. If you do not know how to test this you could also just replace the sensor. Good luck.

CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR - 2.5L
REMOVAL
Remove speed control servo from driver's side strut tower.
Remove crankshaft position sensor retaining bolt Crankshaft Position Sensor
Pull crankshaft position sensor straight up out of the transaxle housing.
(Disconnect crankshaft position sensor electrical connector from the wiring harness connector.
INSTALLATION - ADJUSTABLE
All vehicles will be equipped with an adjustable crankshaft position sensor. This can be identified by an elongated mounting hole in the sensor.

NOTE: If the removed sensor is to be reinstalled, clean off the old spacer on the sensor face. A NEW SPACER must be attached to the sensor face before installation. If the sensor is being replaced, confirm that the paper spacer is attached to the face of the new sensor Crankshaft Position Sensor and Spacer

Install sensor in transaxle and push sensor down until contact is made with the drive plate. While holding the sensor in this position, install and tighten the retaining bolt to 12 N·m (105 in. lbs.) torque.
Connect crankshaft position sensor electrical connector to the wiring harness connector.
Attach connector to heater tube bracket.
Install speed control servo. Tighten nuts to 9 N·m (80 in. lbs.) torque.
