2004 Dodge SRT-4 keeps coding out

Error Code:P1340
Description: Camshaft Position Sensor B Circuit Malfunction
Solution:
- Delete codes
- Check the connector and wires attached to the cam shaft position sensor.
- Cam shaft position sensor defective. (Replace with good known one).
- Wiring harness.
- ECM.

EOBD II Error Code: P0117
Fault Location:
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor (G62) - Low Input
Possible Cause:
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Triggered on first occurrence.
Coolant thermostat.
Wiring short to earth.
Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor.

EOBD II Error Code: P0340
Fault Location:
Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor A (G40), Bank 1 - Circuit Malfunction
Possible Cause:
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) active.
Wiring from/to Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) faulty.
Camshaft position (CMP) sensor faulty.
Timing misaligned.
Possible Solutions:
Check Wiring from/to Camshaft Position Sensor.
Check Camshaft Position Sensor.
Check Timing.

EOBD II Error Code: P0500
Fault Location:
Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) - Circuit Malfunction
Possible Cause:
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Non Emission Fault - No warning light.
Wiring.
Vehicle speed sensor (VSS).
Engine control module (ECM).

Let's start with the codes.

Po129 refers to barosensor

Po344 is a code for the camshaft position sensor

Po339 crankshaft position sensor

Po340 camshaft position circuit malfunction

Po335 crankshaft POS sensor malfunction

Po122 throttle pedal position

Item 2,3,4,5 relate to each other that s camshaft and crankshaft position sensors. Since both already show a malfunction code, it would be advisable to change.

Sometimes other codes show up because there is a relation but not that the item is bad.

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


Hope helps.

code p 16 refers to crankshaft position/cam shaft position bank 1 sensor A--correlation====causes ---wiring---CKP sensor ( crankshaft position sensor )---mechanical fault

code p 0340 refers to -camshaft (CMP) sensor A bank 1 circuit malfunction ===causes wiring--CMP sensor--ECM
cosrs nothing to check the timing belt , just remove the oil filler cap and see if the rockers are moving when turning it over
the clue here may be bewteen the 2 codes , the word correlation and circuit malfunction so check the wiring, harness connections for pin corrosion and then substitute the ECM with a know good unit as the correlarion and circuit malfunction could be in the ECM
if the ECM program is not getting good reports for both sensors then it reasons that the piston and cam shaft are not timed properly and so will not allow it to start

That makes the computor think the timing is off. Replace the sensor and see if that does it. You will then have to have the code cleared (erased) or the light will come back on/stay on.

Hope this is for any assistance.

You have to remove the air cleaner hose to the throttle body to access the sensor. I hope it helps. You will see it, its on end of engine. Remove connector then the bolts holding it on. God-Bless! Hope this helps you. The dodge 2.0 is known for bad camshaft sensors, certain years.

The Crankshaft Position Sensor is located directly next to the starter.

1. On 2.4L SRT-4 remove the lower inner cooler hose from the metal tube.
2. Remove the Structural Collar
3. Unlock and disconnect the electrical connector to the crankshaft position sensor.
4. Remove the crankshaft position sensor bolt.
5. Remove the sensor

Reverse Order to install except note that:

Use a twisting motion when installing the sensor.

Install and tighten the crankshaft position sensor bolt and tighten to 9 N·m (80 ±15 in. lbs.).
