1 Answers
Audi 2.4 engine's crankshaft position sensor is located on the left side of the engine block. Definition of the sensor: It detects engine speed, hence also called the speed sensor; it detects the top dead center position of pistons, thus also referred to as the top dead center sensor, including detecting the top dead center signals of each cylinder for ignition control and the first cylinder's top dead center signal for sequential fuel injection control. Working principle and function: The function of the crankshaft position sensor is to determine the position of the crankshaft, i.e., the crankshaft's rotation angle and engine speed. It usually works in conjunction with the camshaft position sensor to determine the basic ignition timing.
