Crankshaft sensor failed. Where does it plug in?
« on: 02 July 2011, 14:28:53 »
Afternoon gents, I need some urgent advice please.
My crankshaft sensor failed yesterday. Mangaed to get the car home and have purchased hopefully the correct part. I can see where it is fixed at the bottom of the engine, but cannot find the plug at the top. I believe it should be somewhere around the HBV. Can anyone give me a more precise pointer.
Much appreciated in advance.

Thanks sooooo much for the posts :y. Routing the new cable was fun or not >:(, depending on patience levels. It all seems to be working ok for now, took the old girl on a test drive to Bracknell and back, all seems good. 8-)

saved the page with the photo, just in case.

Cheers
