Crankshaft Position Sensor

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 2015 Jaguar XKR-S, 2015 Jaguar XKR, 2014 Jaguar XKR-S, 2014 Jaguar XKR, and 2013 Jaguar XKR-S. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The characteristics of the signal supplied by the CKP sensor are learned by the ECM. This enables the ECM to set an adaption and support the engine misfire detection function. Due to the small variation between different drive plates and different CKP sensors, the adaption must be reset if either component is renewed, or removed and refitted. It is also necessary to reset the drive plate adaption if the ECM is renewed or replaced. The ECM supports four drive plate adaptions for the CKP sensor.

Each adaption relates to a specific engine speed range. The engine speed ranges are detailed in the chart.

ADAPTION ENGINE SPEED, REV/MIN
1 1800 - 3000
2 3001 - 3800
3 3801 - 4600
4 4601 - 5400
