What causes a faulty CMP or CKP signal?

What causes a faulty CMP or CKP signal?

Possible causes. Faulty Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) harness is open or shorted. Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) circuit poor electrical connection. Timing belt or chain stretched or jumped. Faulty Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor. Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor harness is open or shorted.

What does the CKP sensor on a Dodge truck mean?

Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) harness is open or shorted Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) circuit poor electrical connection Faulty Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor harness is open or shorted Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor circuit poor electrical connection. What does this mean?

What do position sensors ( CKP ) and CMP do?

Modern computer-controlled vehicles must have the air and fuel ignited at the proper instant in order to operate. Both (CKP)- (CMP) position sensors are part of your car’s electronic fuel injection and ignition system. In the old days, if you had fuel, spark and were close to correct in timing, your engine would run.
