They way you can tell if the Crank sensor is bad, is when you run the car for a while and then turn it off, and when you go to start it back up, it won't start,then it's your crank sensor, it's probably cracked, so when it heats up it expands and doesn't make contact. but if you let the car cool off, it will go back together and start up, A faulty crank sensor should trigger a check engine light.
There is only one crank sensor fitted, you may also have a cam sensor. the crank sensor is located either around the bellhousing or around the front crank pulley. It either has 2 or 3 wires. It picks the signal off the revolving crank so look for a sensor in the block near flywheel.
Generally when the crank sensor goes out the engine will not start. The sensor on almost all vehicles is located in the front on the engine near the belts.In most cases it is held in place by a bolt.Usually they can be hard to get to.
The crank sensor should be located down next to the crank shaft, Right side of car They are hard to see, and i think you have to remove the crank pully to get the sensor out, this is a comon problem on the 3.8 L Gm. eng Not a very expensive part, Usualy the car won't start when faulty
we dont know
James drives Chevy Blazer, Dodge Ram, '55 Chevy BelAir i don't know about others.
You must know the engine, such as 4.2liter
Most oxygen sensors are either on the exaust headpipe just after the manifold or on the manifold. I don't know where it is exactly on the Lumina but that is where you should start looking.
i wnt to know how to dis-assemble a transmission in a 1996 chevy lumina
The answer depends on what engine you have.
There is one behind the harmonicbalancer and crank pulley. There is also one on the backside lower center part of the engine that has a cover so you would miss it if you didn't know it was there. This is on the 3.8l. Hopes this helps.
I didn't know a crank had a sensor,but most sensors are tied into manifold and top of bell house NEW ANSWER: It is behind the starter.
when you here a load boom from the crank snapping in half and going throw the block or when it all of a sodden go's up in flames those are two tell tell signs of it!
One symptom of a bad crank shaft sensor is the car having trouble starting. The car stalling and backfiring are other symptoms of a bad crank shaft sensor.

When owning a car, it is important to know how much fuel it can hold. The gas tank of a 1997 Chevy Lumina can hold 17.1 gallons of fuel.
If you are asking if it has one, yes it does. If you want to know where it is, It is on the side of the engine near the firewall, about the middle of the engine near the bottom pan rail.
The crank sensor is an important part of the engine wiring. Without it the engine does not know when to fire. There is no way to by pass it.
