Consider that you can't test it's condition, that it's essential for the engine to to work, and that a new is about £60. That all makes a secondhand crank sensor a very poor buy.

No worries Mick  ;D

You have got my number unless you have lost it again you cock  ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D

Ref Crank sensor ...............

Definitely the sensor on its way out mate.
The only code present when I read them was 19 (no rpm signal)  ;)

As I said, if it goes then your engine stops, end of so get it sorted asap  ;)
