What is a Crankshaft Pulse Sensor?
The crankshaft pulse sensor is an engine management system that contributes to the overall smooth function of the engine components. The sensor is attached to the engine block, facing the timing rotor on the crankshaft. It works by detecting signals the engine ECU uses to calculate the crankshaft position and the engine’s rotational speed. This ensures that all the timings are correct, so the engine can operate efficiently.
If the crankshaft sensor is allowed to wear out or develop a fault, it can cause the engine to stop working altogether. You may also notice that the car is stalling or that the ‘check engine’ light is illuminated on the dash. If you do see any of these symptoms, it’s a sign that it might be time to fit a crankshaft sensor replacement.
