No, the engine will still crank over but will not start if this sensor is bad because it controls the fuel injection circuit.

From my experience, If your crank sensors bad the car will not start up at all.


Would a bad coil pack cause a crank sensor code?

Yes it very well could, because a misfiring coil pack or weak coil pack can cause interruptions in the signals to both the camshaft position sensor into the crankshaft position sensor. I had this happen on my Buick LeSabre, it gave a code 18, which is Cam / crank position sensor error okay. I replaced all three coil packs, and it went away and never came back. If you look at the diagram for the wiring of your ignition control module, you'll see that the coil packs, ignition control module, and camshaft and crankshaft position sensors are all interconnected.

Where is the camshaft position sensor located on a 2004 Dodge status?

The camshaft position sensor is located on the end of the cam. When you open the hood look at the piece that you put your oil into. Follow that all the way to the right and on the end you will see the sensor. All it is is two bolts and a plug.

The crank sensor sends a signal to control the spark timing to the engine. If the sensor goes bad the engine may run rough or not run at all.


What would make your engine stop but will start up again in abit and its not the fuel pump?

That sounds like its going to be either your camshaft position sensor or the crankshaft position sensor. I have a 02 durango with a 4.7 and it uses both. if its starts and all of sudden cuts out its your camshaft sensor a 40 dollar part that's pretty easy to change.


Where is the crank sensor on a 92 Chevy Cavalier 4-cylinder 2.2L?

The crank sensor is located on the back engine wall in the middle, just under the two coil packs (from where the spark plug wires come). There is a wire harness from the crank sensor to the module which holds the two coil pack. The crank sensor is held into the engine by a single bolt. To see all of this, you have to go under the car. I am having an intermittent no start problem with my 93 Cavalier (it cranks, but no spark at all) and I think the crank sensor is my problem.
