FAQs
How do I confirm if this sensor fits my vehicle?
You must carefully match your vehicle's exact make, model, year, engine type, and any specific variant details to the compatibility list provided. Always double-check measurements and dimensions as specified in the product description.
What does a crankshaft position sensor do?
It detects the rotational speed and position of the crankshaft, sending this information to the engine control unit (ECU). The ECU uses this data for precise ignition timing and fuel injection.
What are the symptoms of a failing crankshaft position sensor?
Common symptoms include a Check Engine Light, engine misfires, rough idling, stalling, and difficulty starting the engine.
Can I replace the sensor myself?
While possible for individuals with mechanical experience, sensor replacement typically requires specific tools and knowledge of engine components. It is often recommended to have a professional mechanic perform the installation.
What does OE-quality mean?
OE-quality means the part is manufactured to meet the same standards and specifications as the original part installed on the vehicle from the factory.
What is an inductive sensor?
An inductive sensor works by detecting changes in a magnetic field, which in the case of a crankshaft sensor, is caused by a reluctor ring or teeth on the crankshaft, allowing it to measure speed and position.
Are there any OEM part numbers this Hella sensor replaces?
Yes, this sensor can replace OEM part numbers such as ALFA ROMEO: 46815160, CHRYSLER: 46815160, FIAT: 46815160, LANCIA: 46815160, JEEP: 46815160, and ABARTH: 46815160.
Troubleshooting
Check Engine Light (CEL) is on.
A faulty crankshaft position sensor is a common cause for the CEL. Diagnosis may involve reading error codes from the ECU. If codes point to the crankshaft position sensor, replacement might be necessary.
Engine misfires or runs rough.
Incorrect signals from the sensor can lead to combustion timing issues. Ensure the sensor is properly seated and the electrical connector is clean and secure. If the problem persists, the sensor may be faulty.
Engine cranks but won't start.
The ECU needs the crankshaft position signal to know when to inject fuel and spark. If the sensor is not functioning or is disconnected, the engine will not start. Check the sensor and its wiring.
Intermittent stalling or poor performance.
A failing sensor might provide erratic signals. Check for any physical damage to the sensor or its wiring harness. Ensure connections are free from corrosion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Verification: Before purchasing, it is crucial to verify that this sensor, part number 6PU 358 380-451, is compatible with your specific vehicle. Check your vehicle's make, model, year, engine type, and any variant details against the provided compatibility list. Pay close attention to any notes regarding variations and the importance of checking measurements and dimensions.
Installation: Installation of a crankshaft position sensor is typically performed by a qualified mechanic. It involves locating the sensor on the engine block, disconnecting the electrical connector, removing the old sensor (often secured by a single bolt), and installing the new sensor with its replacement bolt if necessary. Ensure the new sensor is correctly positioned and the electrical connector is securely attached.
Care: This is a sensitive electronic component. Avoid exposing it to excessive heat, moisture, or physical impact during installation or in its operational environment. Regular maintenance of your engine bay, keeping it clean, can help protect components like the crankshaft position sensor.
