Where is the Crankshaft Position Sensor located for my car?
What is your question?
The other day. The wife parked the car at work.
She said it did not want to start. I checked it out and brought my OBD reader. It threw out some codes of concern initially for the CAMSHAFT Sensors.
I had it towed to a nearby shop and they said the CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORS had some oil on them and to have them replaced.
I towed the vehicle home because I did not want to pay the crazy labor to have sensors replaced.
I went ahead and replaced the CAM sensors, and nothing!!!
Still back to square one.
I also had my neighbor come by for a second opinion. First thing he checked was the Fuel pump. Also nothing. No humming or noise showing indications that fuel is being distributed.
That is the last time we troubleshoot'D the car. I am stuck and don't know where else to check.
I did a lot of reading and checked the MB Forums. It seems that a lot of issues with this car is pointing towards the CPS.
Please help!
