What is wrong with my Dodge Ram 1500?? It won’t start!

Asked by JustBrandy Sep 03, 2019 at 02:44 AM about the 2000 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 318 5.2 liter.
It cranks over but acts like it doesn’t get a
spark. Replaced the crankshaft. Still won’t
start. I read that it may be the camshaft
positioning sensor, but my year doesn’t have
that part. Anyone know what that piece was
called on my year? Or what I should look at
next?

I replaced the crankshaft sensor. That wasn’t the problem. The mechanic replaced the camshaft positioning sensor and it runs great!
