Clio Crankshaft Sensor

Andy P 27 April 2005 15:22:03
 My wifes 2000 X plate Clio 1.2 Grande wouldn't start this morning.
Breakdown man diagnosed that there was no signal from the cranshaft
sensor and on closer inspection the connector that plugs into he
sensor was halfway out. When he pushed it all the way in the car
started no problem.

He then commented that there should be some barbs on either the sensor
socket or the plug to lock the two together but that they were missing
/ broken off. Can anybody confirm where the barbs are that are
supposed to lock the plug into the sensor?

If the barbs are on the plug then is the wiring to this part of the
main wiring loom and hence would be a big job to fix (unless we bodged
it with a dab of glue or a small jubilee clip to secure it in place)?

Or are the barbs on the sensor in which case it would possibly be just
a case or replacing the sensor to ensure the sensor and the plug stay
connected?

If anybody ahs a picture of the parts in question that would be much
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Andy

Just bung a cable tie round it and forget all about it.

The barbs are usually on the sensors itself and the plug hooks into,
therefore if you want to replace the missing barbs, the only real option is
replace the sensor...unless you follow the advice of others here.

Ta,
G.

Good - until you want to undo it. Stick with cable ties, at least you
can snip 'em.

Thanks for all the advice given. I have decided fix with a cable tie or a
alternatively some tape (insulation or cloth).

Cheers,

Andy
