Enter coupon code: in shopping cart. We look forward to serving you, The car is running rough and worst with the AC on. A friend plugged in his diagnose computer and cleared all old codes. He then unplugged the crankshaft sensors both front and rear one by the crack shaft cover where they are located and car did not should any different the idle was the same it should have sounded worst and idled much more poorly then it was already, and check engine light would not turn on the computer read no faults. A code should had been displayed and check engine light should have turn on when disconnected. Why is this? Could this be the problem my car is running terrible?

Also I have read to change your cam sensor(s) when changing your crank sensor, why is this? Also Im guessing I change both cam bank 1 and 2.

It's right there on the front of the transmission where it bolts to the engine when you get under the car :| No, you don't have to replace the cam sensors, but if they're originals, then it is wise to b/c they'll eventually fail (known issue with a TSB - car will shut off while driving).

Stay away from O'Reilly, Autozone, Advance....their's seem to last about a few months to a year (don't know why!) and the OEM stuff just seems to last forever....I would shop ABC Nissan, Courtesy, or ASAPparts Nissan too save some money.

Where is the crankshaft position sensor on a 2002 Nissan Maxima?The Crank position sensor is usually mounted in the crankcase over the toothed wheel on the crankshaft. The Camshaft position sensor is usually mounted in line with the toothed wheel on the end of the camshaft. It is usually hidden under the timing chain cover on the front of the engine.
How many crankshaft position sensors are on a Nissan Maxima?The Maxima has 2 of them; the right and the left one. Both are on the right side of the engine.
