P1391 on 98 Dakota 5.2L
I had my 5.2 engine replaced about 1000 miles ago with a reman. Since that time, it has been raising a P1391 code - intermittent loss of camshaft or crankshaft position sensors.
Engine runs great at all speeds.
Ok, easy I thought. I replaced the crankshaft sensor first, becuase it appeared to not work when i manually turned over the enginer while back-probing the sensor. No dice.
I then replaced the camshaft sensor. No dice.
Both sensors are getting the 5V in, so now I am stuck.
Am I looking at an intermittent short possibly? One intersting thing I noticed. In 2 recent trips to Florida, the code would clear after a day or so driving there. Once I returned to Ga, it comes right back. Thought maybe it was due to heat or humidity that is affecting the wiring.
Anyone have any ideas?
