Want this question answered?
do you need to take off the timing belt to replace a camshaft position sensor on a 2006 kia sorento
TOP OF ENGINE JUST TO PASSENGER SIDE OF CENTRE. THE CAMSHAFT LOCATION SENSOR IS ALSO AT THE SAME LOCATION.
The tach signal comes out of the pcm. The pcm watches the crankshaft position sensor to calculate engine speed. The crankshaft position sensor is behind the starter.
The speedometer signal comes from the transmission computer via the output speed sensor on the front of the transmission case. The tachometer signal comes from the engine computer via the crankshaft position sensor on the rear of the bell housing.
The tachometer cable may be faulty. The tachometer sensor, on the side of the engine might not be functioning properly.
The engine computer uses the crank position sensor for the tach reading. It is located in the top pass side of the bell housing.
I think the sensor are on the gearbox , and send it to the transmision ecu
A bad crankshaft position sensor will cause your Kia Sorrento to run rough. The bad crankshaft position sensor can also cause your Kia to not start.
Behind the timing chain cover
A cars tach jumps and runs with engine rpm.Sometimes if it jumps and changes engine sound,the throttle position sensor needs changing.If it jumps with no engine speed or sound change it means your alternator is going bad.
is the crankshaft position sensor the same and the engine speed sensor
unfortunately the sensor is behind the plastic cover on the front of the engine and just above the crank shaft
