Shows the operation and testing procedures of automotive cam and crk sensors, which supply the ECM with engine camshaft and crankshaft position. These two signals are essential for the engine to run.

  • Wrong title. This robot voice video is focusing on methods of position monitors to the point of discussing the use of a network to convey sensor signals to the ECM. If I wanted help diagnosing an engine problem then this video would just make me want to give up.

  • @hossamm3 No the cam sensor just measures the angle of of cam and relays that information back to the ECU of your car. That information is used for the timing (spark plugs firing). Your compressor problem should be checked by a professional, it could be a leak and there are kits to detect that but its much easier to let someone who knows what they are doing do it.

  • Did you Check the compressor oil?....

  • I don't think so, The Kompressor should always work.

    But if they said change it change it. maybe the computer wont let the kompressor open up.

  • it does work together, as pressure increases timing must be re-adjusted as well as inform the ECM on timing,speed, gear, and throttle position, there are other things that work together. If I were you I would check the temp. sensors it may think it got cold that why no compress to check this you need a digital meter to watch the temp as the engine warms up. ANY temp drop when it should climb to at least 200 deg. Fan comes on at about 215 or so. there are 2 temp sensor

  • you don't know sht about automotive then go some where else

  • its the internet i dont help people

    tl;dr white knight

  • so if you're so good, why don't you try to help instead of been an ass???

  • hes talking about the supercharger dickhead

  • not at all...separate systems. If you are talking about the A/C compressor, you sould check for high or low pressure condition in the A/C system. The system usually have a high pressure and low pressure cutout switches...
