| When the crank sencer fails, the engine timing moves to "top dead center" (de-falt mode) to protect the engine. It runs, but lacks power. | |
| This week my '04 Hyundai Santa Fe 2.4 died on me. My vehicle only has 42k miles on it. I was told that they replaced the CRANK SENSOR and Blade. Confused, they told me the 380.00 for that was the same as replacing the TIMING BELT that I was charged an additional 340.00 for (are these the same parts?). Along with the timing belt they said they had to replace the BELT-VALVE, V-RIBBED BELT, and BELT-"V" something adding 178.01 to the bill for the belts. They told me the problem that started this event was the CANISTER CLOSED VALVE and CHARCHOL CANISTER charging me 327.00. I walked out leaving them $1,135.82. Anyone have any advice or experience with this. Of course, I'm 4 months out of warranty. | |

| If you work on the crank like me, dont be surprised if you break the crank-angle sensor that hides behind the belt. My truck turned off, i did the crank kit,it turnred on and worked great for three days. Later it turned off abruptly, and it was the crank sensor. I know its about $100 but you need someone who knows to double and triple check before buying the part(crank sensor). I bought the sensor and it turned on and it has been running since motor-wise. It breaks even though you dont touch it when you work around the belt or crank, dont act surprised if it tuurns off(when you work around the turning bel area). It happened to me for not checking the oil so could happen happen to you for other reasons. Be careful around the crank sensor and you will avoid problems. | |

Replying to: espo35 (Oct 16, 2009 4:50 pm) I went to Wal-Mart's automotive section and purchased a 2-bulb pack of 27 watt combination bulbs. The total price - $1.96!! In my garage last Saturday nite, I changed both bulbs within 45 minutes. Admittedly, everything has its price. However, I paid less than $2.00 for the bulbs as opposed to paying the dealer $25.00! |
