96 SE JET

Yesterday i put a new battery in my 97 se. After driving awhile check engine light came on so i went back to autozone and after they checked codes they gave me P0316 Crankshaft position sensor. Checked my haynes manual and hats not the code for CPS. I've researched the org not to much info on p0316

This is what I came up with for a P0316 code, I hope it helps.

The P0316 code means that the PCM has detected a serious misfire in the first 1,000 engine revolutions. If there are no other misfire codes, this code can indicate a problem with a crankshaft position sensor, camshaft position sensor, or a wiring issue. Since this code indicates a start up misfire, pay attention to items which may expand or contract when cold (if the code sets when the engine is cold), or hot (if the code sets on a hot restart).
If you have other misfire codes that pertain to individual cylinders, you should attend to them first

I bought a coil yesterday from nissan and it was installed correctly other than that really can't think of any other problems or where to start

Did you see this code yourself on the computer or did they print it in a receipt?? I don't see that code in my FSM anywhere...I think they must have told you the wrong number..

Did they replace coil #6? If so you might be getting the P0306 code. There is no P0316 code for a nissan

Check the codes manually or take it to another place to scan the codes. Obviously something isn't adding up.

I ACTUALLY SAW CODE BUT IT WASN'T IN HAYNES MANUAL LAST WEEK THERE WAS A DOWNSTREAM OXYGEN SENSOR CODE BUT IT DIDN'T COME BACK AFTER I INSTALLED NEW BATTERY AND NEW COIL.

I INSTALLED OEM COIL MYSELF. THINK IT WAS #3

There is no P0316.

Do u mean P0306. Its the code for misfire cylinder 6

MAXECV

That is weird if there is no P0316 code that Autozone scanned it and that's what came up.

Ok. Rear center is cylinder 3 which would have thrown a code of P0303. Do you feel your car idling rough when placed in D?

96 SE JET

Ok so when placed in gear, it idles rough. To continue further troubleshooting, we will need you to scan the codes again and tell us the numbers you get.

Ok so after using my dads scanner to check problem codes the mysterious 0316 looks to have been a 0136. The girl at autozone had to have done something wrong to get that code and give me the printout. So my car has a 0150 ( FRONT BANK OXYGEN SENSOR) and a 0136 ( DOWNSTREAM OXYGEN SENSOR ). Thanks for all the help.
