Crankshaft Position Sensor Replacement 7X

1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Crank the steering wheel fully to the left.

Caution: To avoid any vehicle damage, serious personal injury or death when major components are removed from the vehicle and the vehicle is supported by a hoist, support the vehicle with jack stands at the opposite end from which the components are being removed and strap the vehicle to the hoist.

3. Raise the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.
4. Disconnect the sensor electrical connector.
5. Remove the attaching bolt/screw.
6. Remove the sensor from the engine.
7. If the sensor is not being replaced, inspect for wear, cracks, or leakage .

1. Lubricate the O-ring with clean engine oil before installation and replace if damaged.



2. Install the sensor to the block.

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.

3. Reinstall the sensor attaching bolt.

Tighten
Tighten the bolt to 8 N·m (71 lb in).

4. Connect the sensor electrical connector.
5. Lower the vehicle.
