No, a crank position sensor and a cam position sensor are not the same thing. The crank position sensor monitors the position and rotational speed of the crankshaft, which is crucial for engine timing and fuel injection. In contrast, the cam position sensor tracks the position of the camshaft, helping to manage valve timing and ensure proper engine performance. Both sensors are vital for engine management but serve different functions.
