Check your wiring to the CPS, might also be worth unplugging and spraying contact cleaner into the plug and the sensor contacts, refitting/unplugging a few times then a final squirt on both with contact cleaner before final connection and then reset again on the OBD, see if that improves matters. If not, renew the sensor.

I know when the CPS went on mine it was a non-starter and no fault code thrown either! 😮

A Happy New Year to all on here! Hope it's much better than 2023 was! 😉 😄

Crank sensors either work or they don't, no half measures. I'm guessing it's a non-starter? If so, replacement is the only real option.

I believe that's the correct one for your car but double check as you haven't provided many details about your car.

Sadly Dominic it was a combination of leaving a busy multistorey and the Cambridge rush hour! 😮

Had to resort to forcing my way out onto a box junction in the end as nobody wanted to either obey the rules of a box junction or let me out.

Nice long walk with the dogs and a close friend this afternoon then she treated us to fish and chips for dinner (saved me cooking) and a nice relaxing evening after. Just taken her and her hound home until tomorrow at least.

Hoping for a warm, dry day tomorrow and the energy and enthusiasm to make a start on the Honda. That's about as close as i'll get to relaxing!

On a slightly more positive note, i topped the coolant on the Jag and it warms up inside quicker now and the hot idle is more stable (not unexpected to be honest) but a nice side effect of the more stable idle is less of a thump as i engage reverse after driving.

Hope you have a good weekend!

That sounds like a good run Dominic and good performance from your Jag - no EML or other unwanted lights making the dash look unwantedly festive i hope?

My round trip was about half that length and economy was only dragged back up to 20.2mpg after waiting nearly an hour to get out of Addenbrookes multi-storey car park - during that hour it dropped and dropped to under 18mpg as it was all stop-start! 😮

That said, at the moment that's all my Honda is managing but hoping to find the time, dry (preferably warm ish) day to set about sorting the problems causing that.

Is it the weekend already? This week has flown by! Have a good one!
