Crankshaft Position Sensor

The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is mounted on engine block, behind crankshaft pulley (1.6L) or behind flexplate (2.0L). CKP sensor consists of a pick-up coil and magnet. CKP sensor generates an AC voltage signal as signal rotor on crankshaft timing belt pulley rotates. This signal is sent to PCM and is used to monitor misfire conditions.
