Help your engine computer keep accurate track of crankshaft position with the Standard Ignition Engine Crankshaft Position Sensor, part number PC483. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed 1996 Ford applications with the L6-4.9L engine: the E-150 Econoline, E-150 Econoline Club Wagon, E-250 Econoline, E-350 Econoline, E-350 Econoline Club Wagon, F-150, F-250 and F-350.
- Part type: engine crankshaft position sensor.
- Engine: L6-4.9L.
- Model year: 1996 Ford vans and pickups listed above.
- Quantity: the listed applications use one sensor.
The crankshaft position sensor monitors the position and rotational speed of the crankshaft. It sends that signal to the engine computer, which uses it to time ignition and fuel delivery. When the signal drops out or becomes erratic, the engine may run poorly or not start at all.
Signs this sensor may need replacing include an engine that cranks but will not start, stalling, intermittent misfires or hesitation, and an illuminated check engine light. Other faults can produce the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing parts. If a failed crankshaft position sensor is the cause, the PC483 is designed to replace it on the listed applications.
