P0016 and P0138 codes

[ErikOffroad]

I was working on the body lift and motor mount lift in the Jeep over the weekend and now that I’m done I have some codes that where not here before. One is a P0016 which says crank shaft position camshaft position correlation. I know I bumped the sensor with a pry bar while installing a the engine mount. I’m wondering if
Anyone knows how to get it back to the correct position.

The other one is a P0138 o2 sensor circuit high bank one sensor 2. I have to look and see if I hit any of the wiring or something on that next weekend

That sensor connector you're pointing at is for the camshaft position sensor which is inside the housing under the black plastic cap. You're going to have to look to see if you broke the connector, it's unlikely it can just be bent back into position.

The hole housing rotated. I loosened the hold down clamp and put it back to where it was near. Cleared the code and took it for a test drive. It’s not coming on now so hopefully that works. I just don’t know if there’s a way to dial it back into it’s proper
Orientation

That will do it, if the whole housing was rotated. There is a small window within a few degrees of rotation you have to be within. If you are not popping the P0016 any more when the engine reaches near operating temp, you should be fine now.

The cel keeps going on and off for the o2 sensor code. I’m going to order a new o2 sensor. I saw on a thread a while ago that the pcm doesn’t like some brand sensors so I’m just making sure I get one that works because I can’t find that information anywhere
I’m looking at getting a ntk 23159. Is this one acceptable?
It also is showing a code for bank one too rich. I figure I should just replace the spark plugs and air filter when I’m in there too.

All the info you seek is here, according the right O2 sensor to get:
The Official Jeep Wrangler TJ Oxygen (O2) Sensor Thread

You want an NGK / NTK (same thing) O2 sensor, others won't work.

The smart thing to do is replace all the O2 sensors at once. They are general maintenance items and should be replaced around 80k miles give or take. Especially if you want your TJ to run optimally.

@Chris thanks for the link to that thread. I got all my o2 sensors on my shopping list now. One last thing tbough
I need to order a new oil pan because mine is rusted and I need a new heater core. Rock auto has a brand called spectra premium. I didn’t know if this would be a good product or if i need to look elsewhere. The price is pretty cheap

Go got it! It's just an oil pan, so it will be fine.

If it was something like a sensor, I would say only ever use OE Mopar, but for an oil pan, that's no big deal.
