To the guys leaving nasty comments.... I make no secret in any of my videos that I'm NOT a certified mechanic. I'm a guy in my driveway attempting to do my own repairs to save money, and I make videos to show other people exactly what they will encounter if they attempt these repairs themselves. What you see is what you get. If you don't like my videos, then don't watch. If I say or do something "wrong", then CORRECT me so that I and others learn from you, but there's no reason to be a dick about it.
Thanks for posting So you are demonstrating how to replace the camshaft position sensor on the back part of the engine on bank 1 (the passenger side) ? I have replaced both of my camshaft position sensors on the back side of bank (1) and bank (2) with mopar sensors I’m now getting po365 which is Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit - Row 2 Sensor 1 Someone told me camshaft position sensor row 2 sensor 1 is one of the two sensors on the front drivers side of the engine . Do you know if this is true ?
Thank you for this video. I was on vacation when I threw a code. I wanted to add to all that the tool kit Jeep provides for door and top removal works great to remove the passenger side CPS. Now, let’s hope that light stays away!
That is what I thought, this guy is wrong in his video, but actually replaces the passenger side.... lol, he explains it well, give him credit for that. Thanks for confirming.
Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit - Row 2 Sensor 1 P0365 Do you know where row 2 sensor 1 is located ? Is it one of the two cam shaft position sensors on the front of bank 2 (drivers side)?
PLEASE NOTE that I am referring to the wrong bank in my narration!! I was originally told (by a Jeep dealer mechanic of all people) that the Passenger side was bank 2.. it is Bank 1. I have it right in the title but wrong in my narration.
Holy shit I was nervous watching this seeing the batt negative not disconnected. Glad you are ok. But man, please be careful. 2:46 Oh shit moment seeing that tool roll on the batt near the terminals O_O! (thanks for the vid btw, going to see why mine is wet with oil around there. must be the orings worn out on it)
If your problem is the senor, you can just swap it out. If you don't have a code reader to clear your codes, don't sweat it. After X amount of starting the engine with no new error conditions, the PCM will reset and clear the Check Engine Light (CEL) automatically.
Thanks for the feedback. I actually make my videos as my vehicles need repairs, so until that bank reports errors, I won't be making a video for that side yet.
Good video, But please stop laying a metal rod (extension) on top of you battery!! If it rolls around and touches the other post, frame,ect it will blow up in your face. Just my advice.
@@BakedDaily When I was a jr tech, I was working on a manual fuel pump. The tool was gas soaked. I laid it on the battery and the tool caught on fire. Yikes.
Sorry. That's a great question but I don't know the actual specs. I sensed how hard it was to unscrew and did my best to match it going back in. Unlike brakes or other engine/drive train parts, I don't know where those specs would be listed. Here is the best resource I have for those kinds of questions - www.extremeterrain.com/jeep-wrangler-torque-specs.html
@@DeathScouter Thanks for the info, I ended up buying the Haynes Manuel pretty good deal I can say but it didn't have it in there... I can tell you it is NOT 106in-lbs, I did the "feel" tightness and it felt like it was going to break.. so I just snugged it in as well.
To the best of my knowledge, both sides use the same sensor. Confirming by going to a parts website and looking up the sensor, they websites make no distinction between sides, so yes... same part for each side.
@@AxialFlux my last trip towing, it did it the all the way there. Coming home, after the first time it did it i turned the traction control off and it didn't do it the rest of the trip. I also read some ppl had good luck by adding 1 gu Lucas Oil additive. Next time I will do both and hope for the best.
OK, so it's not your sensor that's the problem. Go ahead and change it just to remove it from the equation (cheaply), but it's more likely that your cam shaft (or phasers) are flexing when you put the engine under great strain. Any engine tapping yet? You may need cam shaft and lifters replaced.... not uncommon for the 3.6L.
Did you have clear the code after? I just did mine & went for a 1hr drive & it's still giving me the same code. I purchased it from a Dodge dealer?? Any suggestions
Ok so bank 1 on the passengers side and bank 2 on the drivers side … So he’s demonstrating how to replace the bank 1 camshaft position sensor on the back part of the engine on the passengers side of I understand correctly ? Seeing that it sounds like you are familiar with the sensors maybe you can tell me … Do you know how to properly refer to the sensors on the front of the engine ?
@seandooley1901 Thank you for the reply. Have you seen the video of the 30 year mechanic replacing the front sensors who’s calling them “cam phase actuators”? m.th-cam.com/video/vsNJWCTmRJ4/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUnQ2FtcGhhc2VyIHJlcGxhY2VtZXQgMjAxNCBqZWVwIHdyYW5nbGVy He says in his video that the diagnostic scanners call the front sensors cam shaft position sensors but that they are really called “cam phase actuators”. Note that someone comments in his video saying they are not called cam phase actuators and he responds defending calling them cam phase actuators and you are calling them “4 vvt sensors”. Note that in his video he says replacing the front sensors that he’s calling cam phase actuators did not fix his problem and he replaced the cam phasers next, which he says in the comments fixed his problem although he ended up selling his Jeep. So in my 2014 jk with 180 k miles I replaced both of the camshaft position sensors in the back with mopar sensors, replaced the wire harnesses in the back that connect to these back sensors and left the negative battery terminal disconnected overnight and started the Jeep and let it idle for 15 min and my check engine light, ABS light and limp mode remained on. I also had my four oil gallery bolts below the cam phasers on each side checked, replaced with four new oil gallery bolts, tightened and sealed. This also did not fix the problem. I’m now getting PO365, which is bank 2 sensor 1 and of course it comes with a check engine light, ABS light and limp mode. The most recent mechanic said that bank 2 sensor 1 is the right front sensor on the drivers side and called it a cam shaft position sensor, which apparently is also called a “cam phase actuator” or also a “4 vvt sensor” This may sound like analysis paralysis but my objective is to order the correct sensor so that the mechanic can replace it to see if it corrects the problem. Do you know if this is the correct sensor for the front: www.moparpartsgiant.com/parts/mopar-actuator-cam-phaser~5184101ag.html Note that in the description they are called “actuator-cam-phaser” I’m pretty sure this is what I need to buy but how do I know which one to buy for the drivers side right side? On the drivers side front there are two and the mechanic told me that bank 2 sensor 1 is the one further to the right . Further to the right is a little confusing because in each side on the front they are really close to each other but still it’s the one further to the right side if this makes any sense…
Dont act more profesional that you really you are dont things that the shop is Bad deal tell me how you will do the Relearn Prosedure do you have a profesional grade Scan Tool?
Thanks for watching. In NONE of my videos do I portray myself as a certified mechanic. I openly state I'm "just a guy" trying my own repairs and showing you what you'll experience if you attempt these repairs yourself. Yes... i have a scan tool to clear the codes, which I can also do through my after-market radio that integrates with the PCM and lets me see/clear codes.

Did the repair worked please let me know as I might have the same problem but I think is my harness going to the sensor
Please let us know
Hey in the future oil the o ring on install prevents them from gluing themselves in and making changing them in the future difficult
Do you need to remove the negative side of the battery for a specific time for the computer to learn the new part?
Bank 1 is the passenger side. Bank 2 is the driver's side.
That is what I thought, this guy is wrong in his video, but actually replaces the passenger side.... lol, he explains it well, give him credit for that. Thanks for confirming.
Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit - Row 2 Sensor 1
P0365
Do you know where row 2 sensor 1 is located ?
Is it one of the two cam shaft position sensors on the front of bank 2 (drivers side)?
I’ve got a 2012 Jku. Code P0365 says that’s cam position sensor B Bank 1. Am I understanding that is the drivers side sensor?
Thanks for posting this! I was nervous about this code getting thrown randomly time to time.
PLEASE NOTE that I am referring to the wrong bank in my narration!! I was originally told (by a Jeep dealer mechanic of all people) that the Passenger side was bank 2.. it is Bank 1. I have it right in the title but wrong in my narration.

Dude for real I was terrified. 😆
O ring is oiled at install top prevent it from dealing itself in and making removal difficult in the future always lubricate o rings at install
I thought I needed an expensive scan tool to learn the part to the engine or calibrate it or something. Is it just plug and play like that?
If your problem is the senor, you can just swap it out. If you don't have a code reader to clear your codes, don't sweat it. After X amount of starting the engine with no new error conditions, the PCM will reset and clear the Check Engine Light (CEL) automatically.
@@DeathScouter I just got my Jeep back from the mechanic a few days ago. It needed a whole new camshaft.
Thank you for sharing! Very helpful
Awesome! Thank you for showing for to replace.
Did you have to re learn the unit ? How if so? I hear taking battery cable off over night ?
do you have to take it to a garage to reprogam the ECU or is it just plug and play?
I’m sure you know by now. But no, there is no relearn. Plug and play. 😊
Great video . please next video if you can show how to put in other sensor side .
Thanks for the feedback. I actually make my videos as my vehicles need repairs, so until that bank reports errors, I won't be making a video for that side yet.
Bank 1 is on the passenger side, correct bank 2 drivers side
Is there a difference between the two sensor bank one or two

Why not replace the seal too??
Excellent very educative and informative Thanks.
Your description says bank 1, you say you're doing bank 2. Which is it?
What code was it telling you?
What if I changed both and still have the same problem?
Same
Any torque spec on that sensor? Maybe 106in-lbs like the valve cover?

80in-lbs is spec
are both parts for each side the exact same part # ??
To the best of my knowledge, both sides use the same sensor. Confirming by going to a parts website and looking up the sensor, they websites make no distinction between sides, so yes... same part for each side.
Do both sides use the same sensor?
Yes.
What’s the part number?
I only get this code that it is bad when I tow my camper, it is frustrating.
Same issue.

@@DeathScouter Jeep just released a TSB on it. They say loose oil galley bolts below the cam phasers.
I had this exact issue. Did a tune up new coils and spark plugs(NGK on both) not had issue since. Over 15k miles later. So far so good
Did you have clear the code after? I just did mine & went for a 1hr drive & it's still giving me the same code. I purchased it from a Dodge dealer?? Any suggestions
What about the torque specs?
80 ft. #
Twist and pull it’s real easy
Twist to the left or right?
Jeep pissed me off w/these sensors. It's supposed to be an off road vehicle. You will get this Defect w/all 4x4 off road vehicles. Shame on Jeep
Please elaborate -- im curious why you think this would happen on all 4x4 vehicles and why Jeep shoulda known better.
Jeep knew better prior to 2007 by not putting these annoying sensors that no one wants that cause nothing but unnecessary problems and expenses
Here i go again changing another sensor on my Cheap again...
Bank 2 is the drivers side
