Q: How to Service the Crankshaft Position Sensor on Lincoln Navigator?
A: The first step to service the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor requires you to disconnect the battery ground cable. The service starts by moving the accessory drive belt from the A/C compressor pulley before lifting and supporting the vehicle. You must disconnect the electrical connector of the A/C compressor field coil before disconnecting the CKP sensor electrical connector and detaching the wiring harness. Access to the CKP sensor becomes possible by sliding the compressor down one inch after the A/C compressor bolts receive only enough release to create this opening. Unbolt the sensor from its position while you remove the CKP sensor from the system. The reverse steps from removal must be followed for product installation.
Q: How to properly service the Crankshaft Position Sensor on a Lincoln Continental?
A: The first step requires that technicians height and sustain a vehicle and disable air suspension electrical power at the right-hand kick panel area air suspension switch to avoid air spring sudden pressure or vacuum variations which could move the vehicle before service completion. Start by detaching the engine control sensor wires from the Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP sensor). Proceed with removing the bolt that fastens the CKP sensor to remove the sensor from its position. To install the component follow the steps in reverse order of removal.
Q: How to Service the Crankshaft Position Sensor on Lincoln Town Car?
A: The service of Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor should begin by raising the vehicle on a hoist and placing it in NEUTRAL position. The accessory drive belt needs to be removed from the A/C compressor pulley while the technician rotates the tensioner according to procedure before disconnecting the A/C compressor field coil electrical connector and the CKP sensor electrical connector. First cut off the two wiring harness clips by unwinding the nut from the connection. The three A/C compressor stud bolts need to be loosened gently to allow the compressor descent one inch for accessing the CKP sensor installation area. When you remove the retaining bolt then you can extract the CKP sensor from its place. Follow these steps for installation by rolling up the A/C compressor one inch but do not remove the bolts and perform bolt tightening to 9 Nm (80 lb-in).
