Solved Crankshaft Position Sensor Problem The 99 3400 has two Crankshaft position sensors. we have the 24x sensor that measures 24 times per turn. this is right behind the crankshaft pulley. This sensor is responsible for RPMs and timing. now my car was kinda sputtering every once in a while and sometimes the tack would get squirrel. but it would have maybe a 1 to 2 second time period when it wouldnt function correctly, then all would be normal, and this was only when i was at full running temp. ok so replaced it like two nights ago, and had to get new crank pulley unfortunatly for not using the right tool. so i have a new 24x sensor and crank pulley on. now tonight  started it up turned on the ipod... died... so now what could it be? ugh.... start her back up and start driving. rpm guage bounced a few times and she starts sputtering... then while driving...it dies. throw it in neutral, start it back up and keep going. now keep in mind the check engine light didnt come on... it...

Crankshaft Angle Sensor CKS CAS Working Of CAS/ CKS This article describes how an automotive crankshaft position sensor works. This information pertains to all vehicles except electric cars. A crankshaft position sensor (CKS) is used to reference crankshaft rotation as the engine is running while supplying feedback data to the main computer. This sensor is mounted near the crankshaft, flywheel or in the engine block depending on manufacturer. As the crankshaft spins it creates an electrical pulse pattern that changes with engine speed. This wavelength controls computer output circuits such as fuel injector pulse width and timing adjustments. The timer reluctor wheel is fastened to the crankshaft which is used by the sensor. Crankshaft Angle Sensor This sensor goes by different names depending on the manufacturer, crankshaft angle sensor, CKS sensor, crankshaft position sensor but performs the same function. When these sensors fail they can cause intermitted stalling, no s...
