Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Cars / March 2008New Crank positioned senor didn't help
Got part, Dealer said Crank positioned senor was behind the power steering pump on the right side of motor, and I would have to pull power steering pump bracket. It took 2 hours to remove the pump and bracket, and the upper and lower plastic cover over the cam shaft belt. Could not find Crank positioned senor! Called a local garage, and was told the senor was on other side of motor, over the starter! It was there! Put part in, Started fine, Ran OK for 5 miles, then it cut off the Cruise Control by its self and motor started cutting out (Missing). I will try to get a new error code soon.

Since it is an intermittent problem you may have a hard time finding it unless you see a shorted wire in the harness or bad pin in a connector. Is this a 2 or four door Stratus?

They look good and the problems comes and goes. It's starting fine now, just starts missing while driving.

Converter before I take it to the local garage. I miss the old days of Chev 283 and 327. I could work on those. I really do thank you for your help and I'll post the fix if I ever find it! Thanks!

Our books are written as a multiple meaning more then one. Random is one or the other. The fault code in the diagnostic book say's "P0300 as a multiple cylinder misfire" meaning more then one > Our books are written as a multiple meaning more then one. Random is one or > the other. The fault code in the diagnostic book say's "P0300 as a multiple > cylinder misfire" meaning more then one Sorry but, a P0300 is not a manufacturer defined code. It is a SAE defined generic OBDII code and is defined as a random misfire.

Glenn's reference shows "Multiple" and your reference shows "Random". Apparently there are variations for this listing. > > In article > > <4312dba51e3d3f5e63c07c2de8d46cb9@localhost.talkaboutautos.com>, [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Glenn's reference shows "Multiple" and your reference shows "Random". > Apparently there are variations for this listing.

That's why I asked you how you say tomato because it makes no difference to me. we both no what the fault means. And how you say tomato...we both no what it is.

If cyls 1 & 3 fail at the same time many times, it is "multiple" but not "random" and the problem would be something common to 1 & 3. If you had failures of 1 & 3, then 2 & 6, etc you'd have multiple AND random misfires. > > In article > > <4312dba51e3d3f5e63c07c2de8d46cb9@localhost.talkaboutautos.com>, [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > The DTC Lookup program that came with my Actron scanner shows P0300 > as "Random/Multiple Misfire Detected". Someone at Actron should inform SAE that they're wrong.
