Wrangler still shuts Down?
I would like to thank DougW for all his help. The Camshaft sensor change
went well, the wrangler started right up. Took it around the block it coughed and stuttered then shut down. This time it did start right back up though. I have no idea what could be the problem now. I don't think its fuel related or the plugs, plug wires,cap, or rotor. What am I forgetting? thanks Dean. |

I hoped that was the cause but guess not. Have you checked the battery cables or jiggled them with the engine running? Any codes stored in the computer? I'm running out of ideas without actually seeing it first hand. The last resort is to have Jeep put it on the scanner and do a diagnositcs. It's not cheap but they take the price off any repair work they do.. yea, like that's a bargain. :/ -- DougW |

What about the real CPS that causes 99% of shutdowns because it's plug
sits on the exhaust manifold and gets corroded or a dead wire mesh ground from the engine head to the firewall?

by majority it is the crank sensor on the bell housing.

Ditto. I ran for a while when it was disconnected while other work
was being done, as in one of it's tests at: http://www.off-road.com/jeep/cheroke...tdcsensor.html God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O http://www.billhughes.com/ extremetj wrote: > > by majority it is the crank sensor on the bell housing. |

The crank sensor was just changed a year or two ago. Dean.

So that means only one half of the plug and socket got cleaned by the
new plug being there. The other half just hung on this long and now has crapped out likely. Normally the failure is corrosion, changing it will get as mentioned one half clean so it works for a bit. I sure would unplug it and plug it back to try again. Mike Dean wrote: > > The crank sensor was just changed a year or two ago.

Unplug it for a few minutes, and it should start.

DougW. I got these codes to come up in the computer 12, 33, and 55. I
checked the code sheets and don't have any idea what they have to do with it shutting down. Dean.
