Answer 1

Several times a day, someone asks a very similar question to your's.

It's very helpfull to include a little more information in your question to help us, help you, in your times of trouble.

Some of the simple things to include in your question is:

If you could give a more detailed explanation of what is happening when you turn the key to start your car.
1) Nothing happens?
2) You hear a "click", but nothing else?
3) You hear the starter turning, but the engine doesn't turn?
4) The starter turns the engine, but the engine won't start up?
5) The engine turns over, but very slowly.
6) the engine turns, but there's an awful banging noise?

Lastly:
What happened last time you drove it?

1) Drove home fine last night, just won't start today?
2) Was driving fine, and it just died on you?
3) You haven't driven it in a while. It's been parked in storage?

I like to say: "The better the question, the better the answer"

Answer 2

The question doesn't have that much information in it, but your asking if its the crank sensor, so that probably means your not getting anything. It could be your starter, or your solenoid. I'm going to assume you've done the obvious, and checked the eletrical system just to make sure you're good, and such. Came across someone who actually had the altenator unplug while driving. Darn gremlins. When you hit the ignition your solenoid hooks up your starter, and turns the flywheel, while your ignition is trying to pop. Try the process of elimination, and you will find the problem in that circulation probably.

Answer 3

Possibly. What makes you think crank sensor?

Start with the basics.
Does the engine turn over but not fire? Or does nothing happen when you turn the key?

Does vehicle have fuel?
Is it getting spark?
Is the engine cranking strong or just barely cranking?
What symptoms did you notice prior to the vehicle failing to start? Noises?
Does the engine crank excessively fast?

Not sure, crank sensors usually have to do with acceleration.
