Q: it may have already set a fault code but yes he will have to see it happening or you can request that they install the co pilot on your vehicle it is a device that monitors all sensors as you start the engine and as you drive it when the problem occurs you push a button and it records all that has happened if it is a faulty sensor it will show up well worth paying the diagnostic charge if you want vehicle fixed will the tech be able to see if the sensor is bad even if its during a period when the truck and the sensor are working or do i need to wait until its acting up for them to check it thanks the dealer/independent has a scan tool that can be connected to the pcm and all sensors monitored on start up we can see if the crank sensor and distributor are in sync and if not which one is not working or you can thro parts at it glenn beasley chrysler tech im the original owner of a 2001 dakota with 69k miles recently the truck has an intermittent problem with starting. the starter cranks but the engine just wont kick over. i was told i could have a bad crank position sensor. can anyone offer me a suggestion as to what to do. i was told if i take it to the dealer and they cant reproduce the problem im still going to be billed for a problem i still have. also if it is the sensor where can i purchase on is this a dealer only item thanks .
