Hi, new to this forum for a question:
My in-laws 01 frontier is throwing codes for the crank position sensor. They replaced it last year and now the code is back. They are thinking about replacing it again. They apparently are not seeing any other symptoms.
I tried to explain to them that the computer is throwing a code because a sensor has detected a problem...and the code for that sensor is given. It isn't necessarily that the sensor is bad. One of my buddies kept getting an 02 sensor code, indicating system lean. He kept replacing oxygen sensors. I tried to tell him to find out why his truck was running lean. Turns out he had a vacuum leak.
So, with that said, what kinds of problems throw this code? Is this common to this make/model?
