Brother you probably saved me somewhere between 2 days and literally a weeks worth of time. Thank you. I am NOT a mechanic, I do NOT have friends, and I am NOT rich. So this really helped my stupid ass.
A very common problem with 2.4 echo's is a stretched timing chain. I suspected my 2011 malibu when viewing live data on my basic scanner I noticed ignition timing running slow. It was running around 7 degrees advanced idling at 700 rpm's and would drop negative when the engine was rev'ed. I started researching the timing chain issues and when I pulled the valve cover sure enough. It was throwing codes p0335 and p340. I chased my tail around pretty good on that one.
Jésus , youre engine is si clean , I Do not know where you live but I am amaze , and thanks many Times for sharing with us your knowledge . Help more than you can think . 5 ⭐
Thanks for the video I tore off the dam wires into the pigtail had no damn clue what colors went where opened up the inside of the connecter and replaced everything like it was before damn at least now I know where color wire goes where 😂
what you're talking about is a totally different sensor lol. Top of the engine there's 2 CAMshaft position sensors, bottom of the engine is 2 CRANKshaft position sensors.
2008 SATURN V UE I have a no start after sluggish start on a 2008 saturn vue. I don't have the 3.6, I have this here 2.4L so after days of searching online and not being able to find my haynes, I've been back and forth enough to find this location for the crankshaft position sensor. 45$ ish for part and then follow this guide. OMG I hope this saved someone some headaches looking. It is above the starter and you can see it from top but can't get to it. on the 3.6 08 vue, it's behind the motor not where it is here.
Aye I have a 2012 Malibu it cut off while I was driving and now when I try to crank it cut back off do you think it’s the crankshaft sensor because I already tried the camshaft sensor
Chris Wagner yes that’s a symptom of a bad or failing crankshaft position sensor. Same with check engine light being on, and starting issues. But I’m not saying that’s the problem there’s other things that can cause your engine to stall. I’d recommend taking it to a shop or going to auto zone or O’Reilly’s, they have OBD scanners you can use or they can do it for you for free and it can tell you what’s going on.
I have a 2008 Chevy Malibu throwing codes P0315 P0325 P1682 I’ve replaced knock sensor and crankshaft position sensor still not fixed please help if you can
@@elissesmith5340 yea you definitely had to. Mines started driving worse after I changed it and I ended up taking it to the dealership to get it relearned.
Anyone have the exact size of the bolt on this sensor? I know it's an 8mm head, but I've stripped the bastard and need to replace it, and there's not one in the new sensor box.
I have the same on my malibu,a mechanic told me cause my car dosen't have oil ,and I said it has the 15% left, we check the oil by old times ,and it was so low on oil,and that can cause the crankshaft malfunction and sometimes dosen't want to start
I did oil change with proper oil and even did timing chain job because I had a p0016 and p0017 now its only p0016 and I dont know the issue and check engine won't go away
May be can be a defective sensor, when you change it disconnect the battery first and then change ,jus take it to auto zone and tell will tell u if it is another think, I will change oil on monday I hope it works
