Ok, So i have a 2000 Dodge Neon and i think I have an electrical problem. At random times, the dome light will come on and off, the doors will lock over and over again, and the alarm system activates randomly. What could be wrong?? Please help!

I see that you posted your problem in 2007. I am having the same problem with my 1997 neon. Did you find out what the trouble was??
Thanks, Vaughn

Mu guess is that you have found a remedy to this issue. BUT,,,,my daughter had an issue with her '96 Neon also, it turned out that the solder points on the back of the instrument cluster sometimes need to be "retouched". we took her car to a local car electrical specialist who pulled the instrument cluster and just "touched" the solder point with a soldering iron to refresh the connection. He said "there are only about six connectors that he needed to do, but since he had the cluster out, he may as well do them all", the charge was VERY reasonable (around $100, which included pulling and re-installing the instrument cluster) and so far no more issues. Hope this helps for future reference.

05 Dodge Neon Sxt : I need answers ASAP by patjud58

I bought my Neon in late 05 as used, the car has been a great car, and it still is AT TIMES. It has a little over 76,000 miles on it, I recently had the battery replaced. After doing so, the car has been running awful, not everyday, not all day, just sometimes but often, the engine light will suddenly come on as I'm driving, then it usually happens while taking off from a red light, or going up a hill, the car will spit and sputter, and act like it is about to shut off. Sometimes it helps if i let off the gas and just let it do it's thing. I was thinking it was the Fuel system, but I really don't know, a worker at Auto Zone said it's the Cam Shaft Sensor, or something related to that, he said the wires may have came loose when the battery was replaced. I need help on what that may be...and where it is located BUT...theres more, the car has lost a lot of power,gas millage etc. even when it's not doing the whole deal I just mentioned the car can barely make it up hills, I have to put it in 3, and push the petal all the way down to the floor, and it still won't go over 40. Also, what has happened after being stopped at a red light, I accelerate, but the car will not make it over 35-40 mph, the petal is TOUCHING THE FLOOR! The car would not go over 35-40 mph. PLEASE HELP ME! I had the spark plugs changed a little after I first got the car, but that was the only time. Oh... and I think I need Motor mounts, because while i'M at a red light, the car vibrates uncontrollably, and I can hear it vibrate also. It does it worse while at a red light, or while in park, it feels like the motor is going to fall out.
  
Again, PLEASE HELP!
  
I NEED ANSWERS.

The camshaft sensor is located at the rear of the cylinder head, at the end of the camshaft cover.
 
Pretty easy to replace. Remove the brake booster hose and push it out of the way. Then take off the electrical connectors to the sensor, then unbolt it.
 
A good repair shop can test the camshaft sensor on a scope.
