Understanding the Crankshaft Pulse Sensor in Your BMW i3
The crankshaft pulse sensor, also known as the crankshaft position sensor, is a critical component in the ignition system of your BMW i3. This sensor provides vital data that is used to control the timing of the ignition and fuel injection, ensuring that your vehicle runs smoothly and efficiently. Without a properly functioning crankshaft pulse sensor, your i3 may experience issues with starting, idling, or even unexpected stalling.

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.
