How to install the Crankshaft Position Sensor for the 3.7L engine on Jeep Commander?

First clean out the machined hole in the engine block for the 3.7L engine crankshaft position sensor installation. Once you apply a small amount of engine oil to the o-ring of the sensor, install that sensor into the engine block using a slight rocking and twisting action. To avoid damaging the sensor mounting tang, ensure that the sensor is completely flat to the cylinder block before tightening the CKP sensor mounting bolt. Torque the mounting bolt to 28 Nm (21 ft. lbs.) and connect the electrical connector to the sensor. Finally, lower the vehicle.

The Crankshaft Position Sensor of the Jeep Commander constantly monitors the position and rotational speed of the crankshaft. It sends accurate signals to the powertrain control module to ensure that the ignition timing and fuel injection are synchronised. Positioned close to the crank pulley, flywheel, camshaft, or even directly on the crankshaft, this device emits electrical signals that enable the module to regulate various additional parameters, including variable valve timing and a coordinated engine start in the Jeep Commander engine. A working Crankshaft Position Sensor enables the Jeep Commander to start, idle and accelerate smoothly. A failed Crankshaft Position Sensor can stop the engine from starting or make it stall while it is running. Due to damage caused by heat, vibration and corrosion, many contemporary Crankshaft Position Sensors are sealed to prevent fluid damage. There are several designs that can perform this function, since an inductive Crankshaft Position Sensor is passive, while Hall-effect and magnetoresistive styles can detect a static magnetic field and an optical is good and edge detection but more sensitive to fouling. Every Crankshaft Position Sensor provides the data on the crankshaft position and RPM that keeps the Jeep Commander running.
