2004 Sebring lost power, now won't start
 
My wife was at hwy speed when the engine stopped responding. She was able to coast to an off-rampwhere the car maintained idle. After turning the ignition off, the car will not start again. Hooked up the code reader and got MAF, intake air temp, and camshaft position sensor faults. Thinking the only of those that would actually keep the vehicle from starting was the latter, I proceeded to replace the camshaft position sensor and put four new spark plugs in it as well. I have good spark and fuel and the fuel pump sounds completely normal (and IS pumping fuel as I discovered when I opened the line) when the key is turned to the ON position. The car cranks as normal as ever but will not fire. If it would have died completely I would have taken a different approach to diagnosing, but I'm baffled that the engine idled until turned OFF. Any ideas on how to proceed with diagnosing and repairing would be greatly appreciated. By the way, it is a 2.4 DOHC. Thanks.

I know this is an old thread but I was hoping someone might be able to help. I have been having problems with my wifes sebring as well. After troubleshooting I know there is an eletrical problem to start with. After researching all over the internet this one seems kinda close to what happened to my wifes car. My main question is in the diagram below what is #3?

That pic is for a coupe...Mistubishi built. #3.. It's the air cleaner. The sedan does not have a mass air flow fuel system. It has speed density type.
