#140 of 258 Re: 2001 cruiser with 2003 engine ?? won't run, help [chdabren] by muledr Nov 28, 2007 (3:24 pm)
Replying to: chdabren (Nov 27, 2007 2:35 pm) I bought the PT with the engine installed and thought I could make it run, I like a challenge, but not this much....... Don't know what happened to the engine that was in it. The harness that is in it is from the '03 and all connectors hook up. I compared a 2001 DCX service manual (8W-30-6) FUEL/IGN SYS to a 2003 DCX 2003 service manual (8W-30-21) and found the pin locations and voltage at the supply different and was hoping I could change the power control module. looks like I will be looking for a '01 2.4 to swap or buy. thank you for the quick response and information.

Replying to: jlawyer (Apr 22, 2006 2:09 am) my 2001 cruiser 2.4l engine suddenly died. later started but unusual noise prompted me to shut it off, tow it in & have it checked. oil light was also on but level was fine & i had just had it changed 10 miles before problem. tech checked & said oil send unit was bad & crank position sensor is defective. replacing these items & plugs has not solved no start problem. after checking blogs on p.t. problems see overfill of oil can turn light on & bad o2 sensor or kinked wire can kill sensors!!! monday i'll request those things be checked. any other suggestions?.

Replying to: chdabren (Nov 27, 2007 2:35 pm) i have 2001 p. t. cruiser 2.4l non-turbo with 81000 mi. i had just had an oil change & tire rotation about 15 mi prior to this malfunction. while driving i had noticed the oil light on but checked & level was fine. a few minutes later on highway the engine stalled (xmas eve). openned hood & could smell oil but none seem & still checked fine. let it sit 10 minutes, it restarted but uncommon engine noise prompted me to shut it off & have towed to nearest available shop open on xmas eve, a chevy dealer. tech started & drove it but it stalled again & would not restart. tech advises battery tested week, crank position sensor tested bad, oil pressure send unit bad, & plugs fouled. replaced theses items but still no start. also tried a new coil, but still no luck. fuel pressure & injector function checks out ok. monday i will try calling a chrysler dealer to request ideas. understand dailmer chrysler has a dealer only accessable website for help & perhaps they can check the database for recommended recall services suggested versas those performed on my vehicle. any ideas or suggestions are most welcome.

called a friend who is a certified tech for chrysler dealer in my home town. he believes my no start stuation maybe the pcm (ecm). the dealer believes this will be covered by my extended warranty. hard to get good answers as chrysler home office closed for holidays.

#149 of 258 2007 engine replacement by manyhoot Jan 10, 2008 (4:27 pm)
my wife just traded her 2001 pt cruiser in on a 2007 with 15,000 miles on it at a Chrysler dealership. The car was purchased on jan.2,2008 and at the time we asked where the block heater was as any car that is built for Canada has to come with a block heater. Anyway my wife took the car back to the dealer today so that it could be put up on the hoist to see where the block heater is and they informed her that there is no block heater because the short block has been replaced. Needless to say we were shocked, as the salesperson and dealer should have known about this before they sold us the vehicle. Has anyone else ever heard of this happening. I am going into the dealership tomorrow to see where I can go with this. My wife loved her 2001 and now I think we should have kept it.
