Camshaft sensor crank but no start.
Was driving when it first cut off and no noise just the oil light before it died.
Spent all day trying to get it to run even cleaned all connectors and disconnected the battery.
Also there could be a problem with a sensor crankshaft camshaft sensor communicating with the computer.
If either one of these were to malfunction then the engine would not be able to start.
I replaced cam sensor oil sensor and engine coil.
Then i found the crankshaft sensor and replaced it without any problems and now the engine won t fire.
A failed sensor means no monitoring for the crankshaft position.
No codes no lights.
Possible causes for the sensor not receiving power include a blown fuse frayed wire a faulty powertrain control module and a bad ground or loose connection.
Car will crank but not turn over.
The sensor should receive this power any time that a driver turns the ignition to the on position.
When the crankshaft sensor is not receiving power the engine will crank but not start.
Also make sure the circuit and connections to the sensors are good.
3 computer sensor malfunction.
Car was running fine and quit running while driving.
It causes the engine to start vibrating heavily.
The camshaft position sensor gathers information about the vehicle s camshaft speed and sends it to the vehicle s engine control module ecm the ecm uses this data to determine the timing of the ignition as well as the timing of the fuel injection that the engine requires.

Hi sarah the code points to a problem with the camshaft circuit.
Cranks but wont start.
Download for possible pending trouble codes.
The majority of modern vehicles have sensors in them which transmit information to the engine.
When i drive suddenly car engine of and try start not starting fuel plug crank sensor is working but camft sensor not working because of iwant to kwow that camft sensor is bad engine start not working this my question.
Without this information the engine would not be able to function properly.
And still has bad camshaft sensor code.
1st though i pulled out the camshaft sensor and thought that was it.
Two of the main sensors for the engine are the camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft position sensor.
Replaced both and still want start.
Had bad crankshaft and camshaft sensor codes.
