Name: Crank Angle Sensor MD303649 Mitsubishi Delica FTO Starwagon 6G72 6A12
Brand: Aftermarket OEM Replacement
SKU: CSCA37
Price: 89.97 AUD
Availability: InStock

BRAND NEW *OEM Quality* crank angle sensor to suit Mitsubishi Delica PD6W Space Gear 3.0L V6 6G72, FTO DE3A 2.0L V6 6A12, and Starwagon WA 2.4L/3.0L.

When your crank angle sensor fails, the engine loses the signal it needs to fire injectors at the right moment - the result is hard starting, rough idle, or a no-start that leaves you stranded. This unit matches the OEM connector and mounting position exactly, so fitment is direct with no wiring modifications required. Dispatched same-day from Melbourne when ordered before midday.

TO SUIT

Mitsubishi Delica PD6W Space Gear 3.0L V6 6G72 (1994-2006, grey import)
Mitsubishi FTO DE3A 2.0L V6 6A12 (1994-2001, grey import)
Mitsubishi Starwagon WA 3.0L V6 6G72 and 2.4L 4cyl 4G64 (1994-2003)

FITMENT CHECK

This listing covers three separate model lines and two engine families - grey import Delica/FTO plus the local-delivered Starwagon. Confirm your exact model before ordering. If you have a Triton MK or Challenger PA, see our dedicated listing for those models. If you have a Pajero, see our dedicated Pajero listing.

PACKAGE INCLUDES

1 x Crank Angle Sensor - 3-pin triangular connector, black housing, with cable lead.

ABOUT THIS SENSOR

The crankshaft position sensor on these Mitsubishi 6G72 and 6A12 engines sits in a high-heat zone adjacent to the timing cover. The hall-effect element inside is vulnerable to heat cycles and vibration over time.

Grey import Delica and FTO owners in particular should cross-reference the original sensor carefully, as import specification can vary from the local-delivered Starwagon on the same engine family.

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF FAILURE

Engine cranks but will not start - no spark or injection signal
P0335 or P0336 fault code (Crankshaft Position Sensor circuit malfunction)
Intermittent stalling or engine cutting out at idle or low speed
Rough idle, misfires, or hesitation under acceleration
Engine management warning light on dash

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.
