Crankshaft position sensor
- Check lines of camshaft position sensor - Check plug connection of camshaft position sensor and EGC4 - Check installation of the camshaft position sensor - Check gap width between camshaft-wheel and camshaft position sensor - Check the camshaft-encoderwheel of the camshaft (6+1) for contortion - Check camshaft position sensor for contamination - Renew camshaft position sensor
What you'll see
No driver-visible symptom recorded.
System reaction
- Engine starts bad or doesn´t start at all - Engine runs disturbed - Torque is limited
Diagnostic depth
—
- signal line of an active sensor between sensor and control unit is interrupted or has a short circuit to voltage supply or ground - Voltage supply or ground line is broken at a active sensor - One or both signal lines between sensor and control unit are broken - Air space between sensor and generator wheel at a passive sensor is too large - Trigger threshold at a passive sensor in evaluation circuit in control unit is too low - Sensor defect
