Any rate, when the wires leading to it chafed, it grounded and no longer sent signal to my PCM/ECM/BCM//BBBB(blackbox behind battery) hence no charge, no overdrive,no a/c etc.
By the harmonic balancer is the ESS (engine speed sensor) it sends a signal to the PCM. It has a 5V+, a ground and a signal wire back to the PCM feeding it.
The Crank Position Sender is only on 24 valves and located by the starter.

Dragging this old thread to the top.


My buddy just called me to say he is having the same problems, hopefully it is his ESS.
