This (pic) has failed me twice. How much to replace/safe to drive?

[sparklesTHEpony]

Not sure on its exact name but it's failed me twice now, would it be the unit itself or the wiring loom?

Cars been sorned since June. It failed in around July and today. Just sat there in the back, engine running then cuts out.

Take that out ^ clean it and put it back in = sorted.


Question is would it cut out on me whilst driving? and how much is it to replace?

But main question is will it cut out whilst driving? Brown trouser moment if it would.

Is that a genuine part?

 

[Budgie]

Crank sensor.

There's a new updated genuine with a bit of loom which sorts the issues.

 

[sparklesTHEpony]

I assume so? No idea! Cant check now it's back in and ball ache to get out lol

Is that a genuine part?

That one isn't, no.

Awesome! Any traders on here that can get a price for me?

The question is, could someone steal your fingerprints from that picture...

 

[sparklesTHEpony]

Hahaha probably!

But the actual worry question is:

Will it cut out whilst driving on my non genuine shitty part?

I had one fail on me on another type of car (Seat Leon 20VT) whilst driving. I was almost home, so fortunately no brown trouser moment...So I can assume this can also happen on other cars. Car was almost impossible to start then (same with the Clio).
What happended was the fuel was cut by the ECU to prevent fire (looks like an accident to the ECU). When an incorrect signal is received from this sensor, the ECU will cut the fuel pump.

I had to push the 1450kg car which was not fun as my name is not Hercules, son of the gods 😅

£60 from Renault.

Give Renault Wolverhampton a call on here, should be cheaper.

I bought this one (have been using it for a couple of months now without issue) for 12 USD. But delivery takes time which you might not have...

The first code is just the sensor, the second code is both the sensor and section of loom together.

 

[bloke]

get one from euro, about £25.00.

Go genuine with the modified loom. And yes it will cut out unexpectedly. It's an inductive pulse sensor and there for doesn't always bring a fault code. The internal coils tend to brake down with heat and age so go genuine always with the crank sensor

 

[bloke]

euro one is fine, off top of my head they are facet ones?

Bought one from auto world renault parts (former trader on here) 52 quid with new loom. Awkward to fit new loom i found very limited space..came supplied with heat shrinks..These were s**t so used normal connectors .
