I've recently done a timing belt on a 2013 VW Amarok 2L Bi-turbo (CSHA) the water pump had collapsed and jammed the belt when it had been switched off. I managed to get it turned and all timed, it hadn't skipped a tooth. I replaced the belt and water pump, everything was timed and lined up fine. It took several attempts to start but it eventually did. Once running it ran perfectly and drove fine. Stopped it and topped up the coolant and it wouldn't run. It starts up and then cuts out a second later, sometimes the glow plug light will flash sometimes not. If you keep starting it it will eventually keep running. I scanned it and it came up with this fault code.
I read on various forums that if the timing belt has been done recently it may not be set up correctly and can cause this code, so redo the timing belt. I redid the timing belt and it made no difference. I cleaned the cam sensor (It had metal stuck to it) but no change. So went out and got an aftermarket cam sensor, to replace it you have to remove the timing belt...
So a third time I did the timing. New cam sensor, 3 times timed and still will not start every time!! Person said that there were no issues with starting or running before the water pump collapsed. The cam sensor is the only sensor in amongst the timing belt so it couldn't have knocked the crank sensor when it collapsed. This is the only fault code in the whole pickup. Do cam sensors on this engine have to be coded? Can you read the signal from the cam sensor while cranking?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
