Greetings all.
I am new here and this seems to be the right place to discuss the caravan issue. I am sure I am posting this in the wrong spot so please forgive that.
WIfe goes out driving the 2000 Dodge Caravan and it died on her yesterday. After a huge tow bill to get it home and poking around to figure out what is wrong I was stuck.
She sais that it just died when accelerating through a green light from a stop then the battery light comes on. Van will crank but not start now.
Battery shows 14+ volts so I think that tells me that the altenator is charging it. Fuel pump turns on and I have lots of gas that will come out of the schrader valve.
I have spark off the cable that leads to the spark plug.
So I go out and pick up one of them OBD 2 scanners and I plug it in...
Comes back with a code of:
P0340
Camshaft Position Sensor A Circuit
(Bank 1 or single Sensor)
Question:
Where is this gadget for me to check it out and how do I fix this problem?
Is this a comon to go bad and how to fix? Would this lead to the vehicle to stop running?
Thanks in advance
