In most modern cars this sensor 'tells' to engine control (computer) the position of the crankshaft in ratio with the camshaft; both are syncroniced to an especific position to produce the combustion... (that means the camshaft sensor to do the same) ... with this readings (from both sensor) the computer fire up the fuel injectors & the ignition coil... by controling the frecuency of the fuel injection your engine is managed to proper performance & this start with the crank sensor trigger signal.
