the truck isnt running again... it cranks but wont fire, not even on starting fluid. they are in defferent positions than before. im back to thinking cps which ive replaced before.

 

Did you buy an OEM crank sensor when you replaced it?
I had issues with a NAPA sensor that i put in my truck and took six monthes of testing to figure out it was the Napa sensor.
I replaced it with OEM sensor and no issues since.
Never received any codes for the crank sensor either, makes trouble shooting alot more fun!

i hope thats the problem then! i ordered an OEM part now and it just arrived. I need to find tome to swap it haha we just got hit with a major ice storm which kinda eats up any spare time.

 

solution:
i put in a new cps and nothing changed. i had the truck towed to be looked at. the cps i put in was dead. they swapped in another new one and the truck fired and ran as soon as they cranked it over. it looks like that was the issue all along, but i havent picked it up yet. hopefully this helps someone solve the same problem easier, faster, and cheaper haha

 

fail. drove the truck home (50 miles or so) and swapped the exhaust. took it out for a teas and it died 2 miles from home. FUEL PUMP! just what i thought from the beginning. my coil and cps were both fine and i just happened to buy a defective cps when i swapped it.

 

Always trust the gut. The gut usually doesn't lie.

 

haha very true. hopefully i can keep it home more than a day this time haha
