keep eating cps sensors
My truck for the past 3 years I've owned it. Has eaten or possibly they just go bad but about 6 cps sensors. About a week ago it the cps went bad replaced it. Now it went out again. And won't start. No tac movement so I figure its the sensor. But all the ford dealers around my school arnt open on the weekends. The cps wiring harness is clean no cuts or burns. What could it be?
Thanks ahead of time guys.

I tracked them back to where they hook in to the loom with the uvch harnesses. Ive always bought them from ford. Last one I got they warranted gonna see if they warranty this one.

Ill check that tomorrow in the light. The connector is clean on it. Also the cps the metal bend does that little pieces like ride on the wheel or does it sit right above? Like what im saying is does the position of the metal effect the sensor?

if you have any scuffing or damage on the end, you have the dreaded timing wheel walk.
It's fixable, but you gotta pull the front cover.
I'd look after wiring or somethign else first. They shouldnt' go bad that much.

I took the wire loom of of the wires they're all clean no marks or pinches. Im going to get a new cps from ford and throw it in.
If tthere's no tach movement its from the cps right?
