Car has been running great, parked car engine turns over but dose not start, now wondering if this model leans more to electrical problem or fuel? ---

> [@osborne](#): > > engine turns over but dose not start So that means it’s not the battery. One thing that can prevent the engine from starting is a faulty crankshaft position sensor. ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/2X/b/bd85b819bcf31d40303d59ee2f1cf7e8e3a0a996.jpg) If the computer doesn’t get a signal from this sensor, the computer see’s no reason to operate the ignition and fuel systems. So the engine doesn’t start. Tester
