I have a 2000 Grand Cherokee with a V8. It has been running rough and has 2 engine codes: 1. PO 340 Camshaft position sensor and 2. PO121 Pedal postion sensor. My question is where are these sensors located and how hard are they to change?

The pedal position sensor, aka throttle position sensor, is located on the throttle body, opposite the throttle linkage.

The Camshaft Position Sensor on the 4.0L 6 is bolted to the top of the oil pump drive shaft assembly. The sensor and driveshaft assembly is located on the right (passenger) side of the engine near the oil filter.

The Camshaft Position Sensor on the 4.7L engine is bolted to the front/top of the right cylinder head.
