CamshaftCrankshaft Sensor Replacement on 2006 Chrysler 300C 57L Hemi

This is a how to video on removing and replacing the Camshaft and Crankshaft sensors in a 2006 Chrysler 300C with a 5.7L Hemi engine. The Camshaft Sensor is a very simple project, but should be replaced in conjunction with a Crankshaft Sensor - which is a bit more of a challenge. The Crankshaft sensor is located behind the starter, so the starter has to be removed. I was able to simple remove the bolts from the started and move it out of the way - I didn't have to completely remove the starter.

Got the same P0016 code. Just bought the sensor. If it’s that simple 10mm socket shoot I can do it myself. Just need to go borrow the tool to do it. Hopefully that will help remedy the issue which was the gears shifting from time to time between 40-60mph..

[@mliphart]

Not sure if that will affect the shifting - be interesting to see. Make sure to replace the Camshaft and the Crankshaft Sensors. The Hemi is funny about that.

@@mliphart I actually don’t have the hemi..the code only showed the camshaft..I only purchased the camshaft which I can change on my own..but I’ll let let know if that changes the shifting

[@mkrp4]

what kind of 15 mm wrench did you use for starter mounting bolts removal (box end, box end offset, standard socket, deep socket, u-joint, extension , etc? ) Thank you!

[@mliphart]

It's been a while, lol, but if memory serves me right, I used a standard socket for the starter.

[@zackskinner30]

Would it just sit there and crank never and fire up or a slow start up did you have a cel

[@mliphart]

It's been a while, but as I recall, I had a "check engine" light that indicated a camshaft sensor error - and needed to get it to pass Smog in California.

[@opietaylor5778]

Did that help?

[@luisroque4261]

Did you have that problem where it was cranking too long to start?

[@mliphart]

No, I have not had that problem - not sure what that would be. From what I understand, the crankshaft sensor is used to "start" the vehicle - so that is a possibility. It could also be a fuel issue - fuel leaking back out of the fuel rail when the car is not running.

Hey! Great video, couple questions what were some of the symptoms you were experienced with the faulty sensor? And did this replacement get rid of the issues?

[@nikhilpratap3485]

Any chance u had try replacing them while trying to fix that your rpm is not going over 3500 and it didn’t fix it ?
