Crank position sensor failure is common on VR6 engines. The crankshaft position sensor died on my R32 while I was stopped at the drive through. In this video I show you how the crank sensor works, how the crank sensor fails, and of course how to fix a bad crank sensor. There is a quick way to diagnose a failure of the crank sensor that I will cover too.

Happy Tuesday everyone. Today we are taking a look at how VW clock springs fail. I actually did a video a LONG time ago about how clock springs work. Today, we take a deeper look at the failure of this part. The clock spring is the key to connecting the electronics in the steering wheel to the body of the car. Cars of today have much more to control on the steering wheel than just the horn. We need to have a part capable on handling that.
Join me today as we break it down:
What does the clock spring do?
How does the clock spring look?
How does the clock spring fail?
Signs of clock spring failure
Diagnosing a bad clock spring
DIY or No DIY?
There is no common mileage/time of failure
and more
