light should go off . if that was the problem, and is now fixed, disconnect the battery for 5 minutes,then reconnect battery this will reset the computer and remove the signal from the warning light if that doesnt work, there is a different problem apart from crankshaft sensor
Do you have a picture of location of crankshaft position sensor for 1992 Chevy Cavalier 2.2L ohv engine?
I replaced my 1995 S10 2.2 engine with a 2.2 cavalier engine and it worked fine.
I had the same problem with a 1992 Park Avenue with the 3800 engine. I first replaced the electronic ignition but that did not fix the problem. I then replaced the crankshaft heat sensor. That fixed my problem.
its located at the rear of the engine (center) attached to the block
Crankshaft position sensor circuit malfunction.
Back side of the engine near where the transmission mounts to the engine. You have to jack up the car and crawl under it to see it. There are two sensors there.....the crankshaft sensor and the knock sensor.
The crankshaft sensor is mounted to either the front side or the back side of the engine block depending on engine type
Its on the firewall side of engine between transmission and engine just below the ignition coil packs one of the wire connectors from ignition module go to crankshaft position sensor
Timing chains are designed to last the life of the engine and are replaced when the engine is rebuilt.
Faulty sensor get it replaced if not check to make sure wire isn't shorting out
Inside the lower part of the engine. The pistons are connected to the crankshaft by way of rods. Here is a rough diagram.
Well yes and no. Both have a 2.2 four cylinder if I'm not mistaken, but I don't think the earlier Cavalier's have the EcoTec motor. And you should be able to get the engine from the '03 into the '97 with no problem.
