Is it possible to have a bad camshaft position sensor and be able to drive the car for a distance before it lights again? Also, the battery is the original. I thought I read somewhere that someone felt a battery this old could be the problem. The battery seems fine.

Some thoughts, 1 we live in a very dry place , so no grounding issues or corrosion on any electrical parts 2 battery is less than 1 year old, no charging issues 3 i have pulled and both cleaned Cam-shaft sensors of normal Gray residue you get at K miles of engine wear that accumulates on this magnetic sensor 3 electrical failure of both sensors at the same time seems unlikely 4 the one time i heard it on start-up, there was also a rather disturbing sound from engine like a starter grinding. Hoping like heck this rattle wasn't the timing chain My concern, possibly stretched timing chain or malfunctioning cam phasers. Sort by Oldest first Oldest first Newest first Most reactions.

AVS Forum. I see two camshaft sensors in my copy of the 05 manual, one left and one right. This is an older thread, you may not receive a response, and could be reviving an old thread. Thanks for all the info. The sensor is a hall effect sensor meaning the electrical resistance changes when a piece of metal gets close to it. Crank sensor is the same thing. Make sure the connectors are dry. Solterra Forum. When the engine is at idle there is no timing advance, my live data scanner shows 17deg advance. What exactly did the dealership say was wrong with the camshaft? Check the main harness connector and make sure there's no bent pins or pushed out pins. I agree about the AVCS. I am going to head out and start working on it again. I'm not an experienced mechanic or anything, just a college student that needed a car they could depend on. That's not what my car is doing.
