General Information

Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor:




The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is mounted on the engine block, behind the crank pulley. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) receives a digital signal from the CKP sensor. The PCM uses the CKP sensor signal in order to determine crankshaft speed. The PCM uses crankshaft speed as one of the inputs in engine mis-fire monitoring. The CKP sensor is not adjustable.
