Yes
A common sensor that could prevent a 1999 GMC Suburban from starting is the crankshaft position sensor. This sensor monitors the position and rotational speed of the crankshaft, and if it fails, the engine control module may not receive the necessary information to start the engine. Other potential culprits include the camshaft position sensor and the fuel pump relay, but the crankshaft position sensor is a frequent issue for starting problems in this model.
Yes, a faulty crankshaft position sensor can prevent a vehicle from starting. This sensor is crucial for the engine management system as it provides the engine control unit (ECU) with information about the position and rotational speed of the crankshaft. If the ECU doesn't receive this information, it may not send the necessary signals to the fuel injectors and ignition system, resulting in a no-start condition.
i have a 92 bonn. and my car wasnt starting and it turns out it WAS the crankshaft sensor and the harmonic balancer
Yes, along with many other things.
A throttle position sensor might keep the engine from starting. Any number of things can cause a vehicle not to start. The starter and the gas line sensors are also a possible culprit.
what can make a crank shaft sensor keep goin bad even if its been replaced 4 times.. in a 2000 oldsmobile bravada
The crankshaft sensor is critical to the operation of the engine as it supplies information to the engine management computer. It senses both crankshaft position and engine RPM. If the sensor is defective, or improperly adjusted, then the computer cannot receive the proper signals, and can't keep the engine running.
Normally if the crank sensor fails while running,the engine can keep running with just a working camshaft sensor.
No, not and keep all your equipment the same. The crank sensor determines spark and fuel injector timing along with the cam sensor.
I have seen a faulty boost sensor keep the turbo from "kicking in" but it didn't stop the engine from starting.
Faulty sensor get it replaced if not check to make sure wire isn't shorting out
No there is not a sensor to keep it from starting if the oil is low
