The crankshaft position (CKP) sensor is a three wire sensor based on
the magneto resistive principle. A magneto resistive sensor uses two
magnetic pickups between a permanent magnet. As an element such as a
reluctor wheel passes the magnets the resulting change in the magnetic
field is used by the sensor electronics to produce a digital output
pulse. This system uses two sensors within the same housing for the V6
engine, and two separate sensors for the V8 engine. The PCM supplies
each sensor a 12-volt reference, low reference, and a signal circuit.
The signal circuit returns a digital ON/OFF pulse 24 times per
crankshaft revolution.
Removal & Installation
To install:
NOTE
Inspect the crankshaft sensor O-ring for wear or damage. If a problem is found, replace the O-ring.
Hope helps.
NOTE
Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement
fasteners must be the correct part number for that application.
Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread
locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do
not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or
fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener
torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the
correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners
in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
