I am after a known good Cam and Crank sync for this vehicle please.
This Mazda 5 is from another garage that have asked me to have a look at.
The customer lost her power steering and the brakes went hard.
The engine set up and problem
The timing belt set up is on the drivers side (usual set up)
On the back of the INLET cam (above gearbox) there is gear that drives the VAC pump that is connected to another gear that runs power steering pump.
Bolted to the gear on the back of the inlet cam is the pick up for the cam sensor.
It is bolted on with 3 bolts.
1 of the bolts came out of the pickup and basically smashed the gears up.
(I have not seen inside, this is what the I have been told by the garage)
I have been told all the appropiate parts were changed and the vehicle would not start unless they unplugged the Cam sensor.
I have said they may aswell strip it back down but they insist they could not do any thing dirrerent and it was prety much idiot proof as everything had a key way and would only fit 1 way.
The code above was clearly introduced by the garage.
Here are the captures
BLUE = cam
RED = crank
GREEN = FRPS
GOLD = injector current
Cam sensor plugged in (non start)
Cam sensor disconnected (starting)
Cam and Crank sync
Is anyone able to confirm my cam and crank sync?
I am thinking possibly the timing may have jumped in all the drama?
No codes have come back during testing.
Thanks in advance
James
