1* CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR (2 PIN PLUG)

The crankshaft position sensor is an engine management component found on virtually all modern vehicles with internal combustion engines. It monitors the position and rotational speed of the crankshaft and sends the information to the engine control unit so it can make appropriate adjustments based on operating conditions. The crankshaft speed and position are some of the most important parameters used in engine management calculations, and many engines cannot run if the crankshaft position sensor is not providing an accurate signal.

Faulty crankshaft position sensor symptoms:

Issues Starting the Vehicle
Intermittent Stalling
Check Engine Light Comes On
Uneven Acceleration
Engine Misfires or Vibrates
Rough Idle and/or Vibrating Engine
Reduced Gas Mileage

ABOUT YOUR VEHICLE'S CAMSHAFT / CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

What does a Camshaft/Crankshaft Position Sensor do?
The Camshaft sensor determines which cylinder is firing to establish injector synchronization and coil firing sequence in DIS systems. Crankshaft sensors set ignition timing, supply the RPM signal, and determine engine speed.

Where are these sensors located?
The Camshaft Position sensor is typically located in the cylinder head of the engine and has a cylindrical portion that inserts into the head. The Crankshaft Position sensor is normally located in the timing cover or on the side of the block with a cylindrical portion that inserts into the block.

Will a malfunctioning Cam or Crank Sensor illuminate the check engine light or affect vehicle operation?
Yes, a failing sensor can illuminate the MIL and may cause vehicle stalling or a no-start condition.

What are the common causes of failure?
Typically these sensors fail due to exposure to high heat.

How to determine if these sensors are malfunctioning?
Look for RPM on a scan tool while cranking the engine. If the engine runs, a scope is the best diagnostic tool. Typical trouble codes: Crankshaft P0335; Camshaft P0340.

What makes Our Standard Camshaft and Crankshaft Position Sensors the best?
Integrated A/D converter and digital signal processing with a dynamically adaptive switch point improves accuracy and operation
Advanced circuitry protects the system from stray electro-magnetic fields and power spikes
Custom magnetic circuit programming calibrates the sensor while performance testing for improved timing accuracy between the target wheel and sensor output
100% environmental, endurance, and end-of-line testing for Timing, Pulse Width, and Signal Amplitude ensures consistent product reliability

How do I test a crankshaft or camshaft position sensor?

Use an OBD2 scanner to check for fault codes P0335 to P0338 (crankshaft) or P0340 to P0349 (camshaft). You can also test the sensor with a multimeter - inductive sensors should show resistance between 200 and 1,000 ohms, while Hall effect sensors require a live voltage test with the engine cranking. Erratic or absent RPM signal on a live data scanner is a strong indicator of sensor failure.

Can a cam or crank sensor fault cause my vehicle to go into limp mode?

Yes. A faulty crankshaft position sensor in particular can cause the ECU to lose engine speed and position data entirely, which may trigger limp mode or prevent the engine from starting. A faulty camshaft sensor on variable valve timing engines can cause the VVT system to default to a fixed position, significantly reducing power and fuel economy.

Do cam and crank sensors need to be programmed after replacement?

In most cases no - aftermarket OEM replacement sensors are direct plug-in replacements that require no programming. However some vehicles, particularly late model European makes including BMW and Mercedes-Benz, may require a crankshaft adaptation reset using a dealer-level scan tool after replacement. Check your vehicle service information before replacing the sensor.

What are the symptoms of a faulty crankshaft position sensor?

Symptoms include intermittent stalling, engine not starting, rough idle, misfires, and a Check Engine light with codes P0335-P0338. In severe cases the engine will crank but not start as the ECU cannot determine crank position for ignition timing.

What are the symptoms of a faulty camshaft position sensor?

Symptoms include poor performance, misfires, difficulty starting, rough idle, and fault codes P0340-P0343. Variable valve timing systems (VVT) will also be affected, causing sluggish response and increased fuel consumption.

Can I drive with a bad crankshaft position sensor?

If the sensor has failed completely the engine will not start or will stall and not restart. If it is intermittently failing, driving is dangerous - the engine can cut out without warning. Replace it immediately.

Do I need to replace both the cam and crank sensor at the same time?

Not necessarily - replace whichever has failed based on fault codes and diagnosis. However, if your vehicle has high kilometres and one has failed, it is worth considering replacing both as they are similar in age and condition.
