Removal Procedure
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Raise the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.
- Remove the starter. Refer to Starter Motor Replacement in Engine Electrical.
- Disconnect the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor electrical connector.
- Remove the CKP sensor retaining bolt.
- Remove the CKP sensor.
Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.
Important: Clean the area around the CKP before removal in order to avoid debris from entering the engine.
Installation Procedure
- Install the CKP sensor.
- Install the CKP sensor retaining bolt.
- Connect the CKP sensor electrical connector.
- Install the starter. Refer to Starter Motor Replacement in Engine Electrical.
- Lower the vehicle.
- Connect the negative battery cable.
- Perform the idle learn procedure. Refer to PCM Idle Learn Procedure .
- Program the transmitters. Refer to Transmitter Programming/Synchronization in Keyless Entry.
Notice: 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.
Tighten
Tighten the CKP sensor to 25 N·m (18 lb ft).
