2008 dodge avenger 2.4 camshaft position sensor location

The 2012 Dodge Avenger, which comes with a 2.4L engine, holds its camshaft in a mounted position on top of the cylinder head, which lies towards the front side of the car. It can be found exactly beneath the timing belt cover, which doesnt need to be removed to access the camshaft. If Youre having trouble finding it, consult Your owners manual. This should contain a detailed illustration or visual guide as to where exactly all of the components are located inside the car, underneath the hood. Camshafts are an integral part of the engine, as they contribute directly to the ignition systems, as well as speed control systems.

Question: Where is the Crankshaft position sensor located in my 2008 Dodge Avenger 2.4 L 4 Cylinder engine? My engine diagnostic comes up p0315 and p0335, both having to do with the Crankshaft position system, but I dont know where it is to replace it. A link to a picture or diagram would be useful.

Answer: The crank shaft position sensor is located on the top of the transmission bell housing, on the back side right next to the top of the motor. The codes you are getting, P0315 and P0355 can also be a problem with a cam position sensor because they work together and the engine computer compares the two.

Try the crank sensor first. If that does not fix it, you would need to look at the engine data to see if there is a problem with a cam sensor or it could also be an internal engine problem. Wince you car is a 2009 Dodge, it would still be under the factory powertrain/emission warranty. You may just want to take it to the dealer. See the picture below for sensor location.
