Cougar Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 The crank angle sensor is inside the distributor. The pickup loop may be bad. The air control valve connection is in front of the throttle body. Check for a bad connection or open coil. Edit: Disregard the above info. Wrong model car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Cougar? Surely the crank angle sensor is right there at the front and middle of the engine, easy to unplug, unbolt and replace?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Do you have an illuminated CEL all the time, or did you just check the codes, and find those. If you don't have a steady CEL, reset the ECU, pull fuse 14 for 30 min. Drive the car around, then recheck the codes with the black connectors.

Cougar Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 OPPS! Thanks Setright! What was I thinking! I'm sure I had a Loyale in mind when I said those things in my previous post. I need some more coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy777 Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Are the black or green diagnostic connectors connected? If they are, disconnect them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
