Crank sensor
« on: 10 September 2007, 19:04:22 »
Just a little question for someone who has no clue,

How long is the cable on the crank sensor normally,

 i have bought one and intend to fit tomorrow, just that the wire with the connector at the end of it seems to

be so short,any advice??

Hello

Sorry for the delay, no haven't got to do mine but after a series of posts on here not so long ago where people were getting stranded because of the Crank Sensor failing I decided to keep a spare in the boot!!

Sir Golfbuddy.........got to get used to that ;D ;D

It would be a damn site easier to get it done at work, and yes they would do it,we have 2 very good electricians here,

the only thing is i would like to do these "easy" things myself.

Call me silly if you want but after the rush i felt after doing the Fuel filter, i want to get it again........Silly eh?

Oh and by the way i have allready forgot how to get here again. ;D ;D ;D
