The cam and crankshaft on your Cummins must work in perfect harmony with one another in order to ensure your engine operates smoothly as intended. The two are able to communicate with one another via the cam position sensor to communicate position to the ECM. In the event that the sensor is delivering faulty signals, your engine will experience poor overall engine performance. This is a genuine Cummins direct replacement unit to get you back up and running properly.
Watch us install a Cummins Cam Position Sensor 4921597 on a 2001 Dodge Cummins 5.9L.

@Mikheno 3 года назад

Wade, I did most of my work from underneath the truck and left the electrical connector in place 'til the bolt came out. I also kept on the intake horn and boost tubing as it didn't seem to be in the way. The CPS popped right off after the bolt was out. Again from underneath I used a long screwdriver to pry on the sensor and it was off in 2 seconds. Once the sensor came out it was easy to get the elec connector off. Many roads to Rome I supposed but this worked for me.

Or should I check the crank sensor harness and connection?

I really appreciate finding this video as I have the same dead tach issue just starting on my '01. It dies for a few seconds while driving and pops right back - Anyone else find that this starts intermittently and then just dies altogether? Also, would it be possible to reach this from underneath? I'd rather crawl under than dig in from above. Thanks.

@thoroughbreddiesel 2 месяца назад

This was my truck, and the truck never actually died, it just ran rough. However, on the early truck with a CRANK position sensor, the truck would die when it lost signal. As for getting to it from underneath, I don’t think you will be able to access it because of the vacuum pump.

@thoroughbreddiesel 5 месяцев назад

Lift pump failure, and you found it once you opened up the system. What we see in this case is that the VP was probably pulling its own fuel supply, but now that you have broken the circuit, you will need to replace the lift pump.

My 2000/2500 Cummings starts well when engine is cold, engine starts at the tap of the starter. At normal operating temp the engine either turns over several times before starting, or turns over but will not start until I give it a shot of starting fluid, or it cools off. I have replaced the in tank lift pump but have the same symptoms. The tachometer works, so do you think this is the crankshaft position sensor? Thanks!

Could be a few different things. Want to scan for codes and check lift pump pressure to start. Suspect a possible injector problem. Make sure that the truck doesn’t have any performance adders plugged into map and fps. If it has one, remove and see what you get.

@thoroughbreddiesel 3 года назад

I don’t believe that to be a CPS from what you are saying. You could have a fuel supply issue that is causing the truck to hunt. Start by pulling codes and checking lift pump pressure.

@DSBAffliction 3 года назад

@@thoroughbreddiesel Thank you for the advice, no codes as of yet. Just this Friday it's stopped coincidentally after bumping the passenger side battery ground cable. My local shop did an intank lift pump replacement a year ago, so I'll look to see how I can check the pressure on it. It started again today while coasting, hesitating at 900 and not going down until I've braked to about 40km/hr then it drops to 800. Which it was also doing before. But now the rpm isn't bouncing in park. Sorry for such a long reply, but if you have any more advice I'd much appreciate it. Will try to check that lift pump pressure and check again for codes.

Truck still runs and drives normal. I did some power testing and thought I had a bad PCM, replaced it but it didn’t fix it. I also replaced the cluster, no fix.

Hey got an odd question but I have a 2002 3500 24v, I keep getting code p0336 crank position sensor but from what I can understand the 2002 doesn't have a crank sensor only cam. (Well my truck definitely doesn't) I have no rpms and a few lights on the dash also. I got the truck from my grandfather who purchased new in 2002 the only thing he had done was a pcm replaced back in the day. So my question is do you think it could be the wrong pcm installed causing the truck to look for the crank sensor? I get a rpm reading for 3-5 seconds on startup and I can see my rpms with a scan tool just nothing on the dash after the first start, I did replace my cam sensor anyways with no change. Thanks!

@ignusa749 4 года назад

yes on the lift pump! weak lift pump or the pressure bypass valve. you could have a vp44 bad... if it has not been done yet at 300k miles it is time to remove it and have it tested.. I did the shop truck at 275k miles... same thing as you.. it all started with a bad weak lift pump... get a pressure gauge and check the lift pump pressure at the vp44 should be at least 10 psi min.. a good lift pump will be 12 to 18 psi.. and the pressure regulator on the vp44 bypasses the pressure.. make sure your intake air grid heater is working, check that with a 400 amp clamp on dc current meter, if it is real cold (below 0 deg F) I always say cycle the grid heater 2x with no crank between cycles. same on all diesels with glow plug! I cheat on all the diesels in the fleet and put on onboard battery chargers as well as battery blanket heaters for the guys who have to go when it is super cold (below 0 degF) if you use that with the block heater it is a total win day!! and be sure to drain the water often from the separator (every fill up) and use a good fuel conditioner to help in lower temps (below 35 deg f) some days you might be able to get it started... then cake up the fuel filter with wax if it is super cold (bad day)

@@thoroughbreddiesel Good Advice! Even though I've always moved the starter out of the way to access the crank sensor. Neither are "easy projects".

Would cps cause shifting issues on automatic trans?

@thoroughbreddiesel 2 года назад

I wouldn’t suspect the CPS itself, but if you have zero tach signal then it could cause issues because of the drive ability effect on the engine. But if tach is there and you are having shifting problems, then something else is going on.

@barrygrimes3919 2 года назад

Thanks for the reply. Tach comes & goes. Shifting issue is between 1st & second gear, it wont shift until i let up on the pedal. Kinda like driving a split rear end. (I go way back)

IF you don’t have power to the OBD2 port, you will need to correct that first.

What if the tuner is reading rpm but tach loses it and injection timing when tach is at zero is off and smokey still cam sensor?

@thoroughbreddiesel 5 лет назад

What year is the truck? If you don’t have tach, need to fix for sure because the truck will not fuel correctly.

Been fighting this on my '06 BUT the p0341 isnt going away, even with a new sensor. Wires all look good & connector has been cleaned. Started on the way home after the Fass was installed and truck seems to run fine other than the code and the tach acting weird (showing a false dip down to 500 rpm during idle). Getting kinda desperate.. Any ideas??

@thoroughbreddiesel 5 лет назад

If you have been through your wiring and sensor, you are really left with two things, ECM or tone ring on the cam. Really need to take the truck somewhere to be diagnosed.

No. If you have a no start condition, you will need to look at other factors.

On a 99 is it behind the starter ?

@thoroughbreddiesel 4 года назад

The crank position sensor is on the block at the same level as the starter. The cam sensor is on the front cover as shown in this video. They are 2 separate sensors on the 98.5-Early 2000’s.
