    Does the engine crank over at all? Or is it entirely dead?

    Make sure that you have already checked the Charging System then proceed to inspect the codes on the ECM if you have a code that relates to the Crankshaft Sensor tested before you replace it. It should read 0.5-0.9Ohms of Resistant if you have a reading of OFL replace the Sensor. Also check for Oil leaks, if sensor is Soak in Oil will be causing a Hard to Start Condition, Stalling or not Starting at all. You will need to replace the Front Oil Seal. Make Sure to Inspect the Timing Chain Components as Well.
