Generally when the crank sensor goes out the engine will not start. The sensor on almost all vehicles is located in the front on the engine near the belts.In most cases it is held in place by a bolt.Usually they can be hard to get to.
Probably a crank sensor
I have a 1988 Cherokee and I had to replace the crank sensor a few weeks ago. It's not the easiest thing to get too. One end fastens to a wire toward the back of the motor on the driver's side. It's pretty much in plain sight and easy to get to. It looks kind of like an alternator wire. The other end has a plate that bolts onto the top of the transmission on the driver's side. It's extremely hard to get to because it's in between the transmission and the fender well. When I changed mine, I got to one bolt from under the hood, not very easily I might add, but I had to crawl up in under it and almost break my arm to even touch the other bolt. Good luck! ;)
Top driver side of the bell housing.
The Crankshaft Position Sensor is your problem. Replace this and it'll fire right up.
1988 a long time ago.
The part your inquiring about is not on your year model or engine.Unless I missed something it was offered only on the rx7 and 3.0 liter engines for 1988.Easy.
Probably a crank sensor
To replace the crank sensor you have to remove the harmonic balance taking special attention not to damage the pulley or the cam shaft. Remove the two 10mm retaining screws
I think you mean CAMSHAFT position sensor.
Gm. did not use a crank shaft sensor in 1988, It had a distributor that done everything.
A faulty crank sensor can do that.
There is no crank sensor on a 1986 camaro z28.. that sensor is in the camaros past 1988 i believe.. but the 1986 carb or fuel injection (tpi) does not have one
check on the back of the motor above the transmission
if it has a crankshaft sensor that's bad
you have to remove the dash and every thing attached to it. Is it the same for a 1988 Mazda 929?
I don't know of a kill switch but there is a crank sensor.
it will be mounted at the harmonic balancer on the bottom and front of the engine
