What is the cause if the transmission does not shift gears?
Auto? Low or dirty transmission fluid? Plugged filter? Bad transmission pump? When my husband's car wouldn't shift (it was an automatic) it was his crankshaft sensor. It ran fine after that.
Crankshaft sensor purpose?
The crank sensor (real name is crankshaft position sensor) senses when a notch on the crankshaft goes by and sends a pulse to the car's computer. This tells the computer where the crankshaft is in it rotation so that the computer will fire the spark plug at the correct time. This also allows the computer to change the timing under different conditions such as if gas of too low an octane rating is being used causing predetonation (called knocking) which is sensed by the knock sensor.
What would make a dodge caravan not start?
1) no spark 2) no or incorrect fuel or fuel/air ratio 3) insufficient cranking speed 4) low engine compression 5) incorrect timing If your caravan has distributorless ignition, check the crankshaft position sensor.
What could cause low compression in all cylinders of a 1986 Isuzu Trooper with an inline 4?
AGE ! if it is low compression and not no compression then your piston rings and valves are worn too much and the engine probably needs to be rebuilt.
What can cause low compression on one cylinder only?
Most of the times when you have low compression on one cylinder it's an indication that the head gasket is blown. If more than one cylinder has low compression and is hard to start the you most deffinatly have a blown head gasket
Where is crankshaft position sensor for 89 Chevrolet celebrity?
The location of the crankshaft position sensor depends on which engine your car has. If it is the V6 the crankshaft position sensor is on the side of the engine block next to the firewall. It is low on the block in about the center of the block. It is held in by a single bolt. The knock sensor is also back there but is screwed into the block with pipe threads On the four cylinder engine the crankshaft position sensor is behind the ignition control module which is below the intake manifold toward the rear of the engine. You can follow the spark plug wires to it. Changing it is a real nuisance but can be done with the engine in the car.

Can low compression affect timing?
No. Low compression does not effect timing but timing can affect compression.
What would cause low compression on a single piston engine?
The piston rings may be worn out .
Can low compression cause an check engine light to come on?
If it is causing the cylinder to misfire, yes.
Can your car overheat due to low compression?
yes. because engine will have a hard time pushing the cylinders and if your fan is attached to the crankshaft(old engines), it will produce less air.
What could cause theKnocking noise front of 2001 Chevy blazer?
