Because after you change a sensor you have to hook a OBD I or II to your computer's wire harness to clear the code. Or you can turn the backwards and then forwards and sometimes that will reset it. Either way changing the sensor won't reset the check engine light...U have to clear it thur your computer.

Where is the crank angle sensor on a Mazda miata and how hard is it to replace?

It is not difficult to replace at all on either models. The Crank Angle Sensor on a Mazda Miata differs for the varying years: On 99-05 Miatas, it is located to the right of the Crank Pulley at the bottom of the engine. It can be reached by removing the splash pan under the car. On 90-97 models, it is on the back of the valve cover on the driver's side (assuming Left-hand drive models). When replacing it, you must also purchase a new Crank Angle Seal (just a round rubber grommet).
