crankshaft position sensor behind passenger side head. been a bear 100% so far...but to where Im at. Got it loose and bolt out. but the long shafted sensor itself will now not come out!! darn thing wont pop out and I think due to O-ring deeper down in the secondary hole. Ive sprayed it so far to no go. Any tricks to it. Needle nose pliers on it pulling while wiggling wont come!!!!!
Its loose and wiggles but wont pull out. I think its the O-ring on the bottom of the shaft that goes into a secondard "hole" inside the bell housing.
Im mostly whining I know but let know what has worked for others!!!!!!!
been a week of working on after work between the bolt loosening and the clip and what not so far.
Having it towed to shop...im thinking they are gonna have to seperage the trans from engine and pop it out from the inside..not sure what else they could do to get it out?! damn northeast and snow and salt...
Update. They are going to put an hr into it to see if they can get it...but if not they do have to indeed pull transmission and that is 1900 bucks.
change my sparkies I was quoted 270.00 I knew this was gonna hurt a bit.......damn
I never got a check engine light/wrench... No codes at all...just no start.... so if you got a wrench and thus codes that gives you a place to start with atleast. get the codes read and you should be able to go from there.
called today and spent 2 hours on it...they dont know how it can be in there so good. gooing to have to pull transmission...I ve now got 2500 into it.
they just dont get how that bugger can be in there so tough. according to service mgr the tech said with everthing he gave it ...it shoulda let loose!!!!!!
the lead frame was 900 a month ago now this 2500 I put 3200 into it last fall for fixing a frozen a/c compressor... will it ever end or what?? when it running and driving drives/runs great!!!!
no body rust or frame rust at 203k miles...maybe its just time to retire it to a snowplow truck only per my wife.......but I knw shes got good miles in her still!!!!!!!!!
$3100 later and all this started from a bad crankshaft position sensor? I'm convinced that Ford's engineers hate us! That should've been a couple hour job that you could've done yourself. And there was a time when that was true. Now the transmission has to come out just to replace a lousy Crank Position Sensor? A Ford engineer owes you a reach around at the very least 😁😘

well yeah it should have pulled out and I had been working on it myself but would not BUDGE...it was stuck in there..they apparantly pulled the transmission and had to pry it apart in pcs to get out?!?!?!?! NY winters seize everything...the pc is plastic and brass....you would not this that it would seize to the cast aluminum transmission bell housing but it was/did. I worked on it for Days before I had to throw in towel....its ridiculous...
GUNBEARER a forum member from the OTHER Ford F-150 forum in Texas just pulled his out and popped new one in!!!!!!!!
Final tally was 3064.48 when I asked about a triple aaa discount I got last time they JUST stopped their affiliation with Triple AAA so I was outta luck. the discount was on labor only but it was something!!!!!
