Service File C.
A electronic device used in an internal combustion engine to monitor the position or rotational speed of the crankshaft while this information is used by engine management systems to control the fuel injection or the ignition system timing and other engine parameters.

• Part of your vehicle's fuel injection and ignition systems
• Monitors the engine's many moving parts
• May need to be replaced if Check Engine Light is on

The Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor supports operations in your fuel injection and ignition systems. The crankshaft sensor sends information to your Nissan’s engine control unit (ECU). In turn, the ECU uses this data to direct movements of the corresponding engine components.

If the crankshaft malfunctions, your Nissan engine may not perform as designed. Some symptoms of a faulty Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor are odd sounds, misfires, dash lights, engine failures, and irregular acceleration.

There aren’t prescribed replacement intervals for Engine Crankshaft Position Sensors. They only need to be serviced according to your Nissan’s manual and replaced when they malfunction. Most of the time, an Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor fails due to damage resulting from overheating, failing circuitry, or problems with other engine parts, such as the timing belt.

Are you noticing knocking sounds, engine stalling, or uneven acceleration in your Nissan? If so, you may need a new Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor. Visit your nearest Nissan service center for a convenient inspection and diagnostics. If a replacement Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor is needed, ensure you replace the sensor with an authentic Nissan-made replacement component. Remember that the ECU depends on the crankshaft sensor to ensure your vehicle’s combustion engine top-notch performance and fuel efficiency.
