My first Mustang that is newer than the 70's so I'm starting to learn the newer engines. I have a engine code of P0017 on my 2014 V-6 with 51K miles on it. I've looked online but can't find the location of the camshaft position sensor. I'm not sure if that's the first thing I need to start with or not. I know it needs new plugs now that this has started. Because it seems to be building up a lot of carbon in the throttle body. It looks like someone has put a V8 exhaust system welded behind the cats. Would it need a new tune for the swap if this is the case? Thanks for any help I'm going to need it to learn all these new electronic systems.

 

If this picture works. It's on the driver side near the back of the engine.

 

By the way, P0017 is for a crankshaft 'and or' camshaft position code

 

Thanks for that info it's going to be a big learning curve from working on my old stuff I remember when I first put A electronic Ignition system on my 30 model-A lol
Thanks again

 

I'm 2 years older than you . I've done things around the house and to my cars by watching youtube videos. Youtube has saved my butt many times. Now before I start to do something, I'll see if I can find a video before I even start

 

I do the same thing but so far I haven't found one that shows a video for a 2014 Mustang replacing a valve Positioning sensor so I'm just not sure we're they are on the head

 

Thanks for the help everyone I finally got it figured out it was the variable valve timing oil control valve solenoid. Got it replaced and it runs way better. The PO must have put cheap gas and just babied it because it had a lot of carbon every were. I'M using seafoam in the oil & gas to clean it out. I've used 2 tanks of gas with seafoam so far so good. My mileage is getting better every time I drive it and no more engine codes I'm going to change the oil & filter at 3K miles and put another can of seafoam in the oil and go from there. Thanks again B-2
