The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.
Condition/Concern
Some customers may comment of a Service Engine Soon light being illuminated or a crank no start concern. Upon inspection, DTCs P0016 and/or P0017 will be stored.
This may be the result of a camshaft reluctor that has moved on the camshaft. The reluctor is a press fit and is not indexed/keyed to the camshaft–it is an interference type fit. An overheat condition may contribute to the concern, causing the reluctor to spin on the camshaft when hot. If the reluctor spins far enough, it can create a crank no start condition.
Recommendation/Instructions
Important: The procedure below was developed for 2006 and newer 2.4L LE5 engines. The reluctor position on other engine RPOs may vary. As a result, it may be necessary to compare the reluctor position of other engine RPOs to a known good engine with the same RPO code. If the engine is timed properly and SI diagnosis does not isolate the cause of this concern, perform the suggestions below:
To check the Exhaust Cam reluctor position LE5 ONLY:
With the exhaust camshaft positioned so that the valves for #4 cylinder are at maximum lift (fully opened valves), the reluctor should be flush/parallel to the rocker cover gasket surface as shown in the photo below. If the reluctor position does not line up correctly, the exhaust camshaft must be replaced.
To check
To check the Intake Cam reluctor position LE5 ONLY:
With the Intake camshaft positioned so that the valves for #1 cylinder are at maximum lift (fully opened valves), the reluctor should be flush/parallel to the rocker cover gasket surface as shown in the photo below. If the reluctor position does not line up correctly, the intake camshaft must be replaced.
Notice: Each of the procedures above may not detect a small movement in the reluctor, it may be necessary to compare to a known good engine if in doubt. Also note that the cam cover gasket surface does not line up with the same face/slot on the intake and exhaust reluctor.
Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.
