Thread: Crank sensor code thrown

So latly my car has been sputtering/dying...check engine light went on and low coolant( but it's full that may not be part of my issue) anyways, after I got a scan it threw a code for the crank sensor... Can this be knock related or maybe just the sensor went bad? If so has anyone changed it before?
Thanks...

Usually it means it's a bad sensor. I have not needed to change one but have been in the position when tering down the motor where I could have easily 3 or 4 times. It requires taking off the Ballancer which requires a puller (not the jaw type) wich also usually requires an impact or a 5lb mall and a long extension to get the Ballancer bolt out.
