It throws a camshaft position sensor code intermittently. But I recently replaced the camshaft position sensor. It also had a pending code that I had never seen. It said unknow diagnostic trouble code

Monitors may not at if dtc's are present... If/when the "unknown code" comes back, post up the code number.

this should help

NOTE: The monitor tests will NOT run if you have a check engine light

I'm guessing the monitors that aren't ready are the EVAP and Catalyst...

There are specific criteria that tells the sensors when to cycle the tests. Based on what I have read make sure you do these things:

1) For the EVAP monitor - fuel tank between 1/4 and 3/4 full, gas cap tight and not leaking, let the vehicle sit for 8+ hours to start completely cold

2) For the catalyst monitor - The catalyst monitor will NOT run unless the Check Engine light is off, no fault codes are present, the fuel level is between 15 and 85 percent full, and the coolant temperature is above 70 degrees F. If these conditions have been met, the engine must have run at least 90 seconds, and the engine speed must be between 1,350 and 1,900 rpm. Idle vehicle for five minutes (to reach closed loop operation), the drive at a steady speed between 30 and 45 mph for two minutes. This test MAY NOT RUN until the EVAP monitor is "ready".

Alright...next time I get a chance I'll try these.. I didnt think they were that specific...Its hard because I've already used up my 3 temp tags trying to get it to pass so I can't really jsut drive around without risking getting pulled over.

My buddy's blazer broke down on a hill near our friends house tonight in the snow. I strapped up and threw the jeep in 4 low and pulled it almost effortlessly up the hill. I was surprised cause he said he was even riding the brakes a little bit.

Got that jeep power.
