Check engine and battery light was on for a couple of days. In the morning I would have to re-crank and press the gas to keep it running, because it would constantly cut off. One morning I was downshifting to 2nd gear and the car cut-off while I was driving. The crank sensor has been replaced, but it still wont start. A mechanic suggested it may be the computer. What are your suggestions?

its a very common fault with the GDi engine, normally first shows a fault after 60k miles. Fault will also make the engine feel slightly juddery on occasions whilst cruising... either/both Accelerator body or Cam sensor are the usual culprit. Both can be rather expensive.

Well the sensors are reporting a failure in the engine/transmission. So either they are right or wrong has to be assessed by the nature of the alarms or sensor faliure, but the problem remains, hence if all primary steps of investigation start by hooking up to a PC specially built to rectify such problems. This facility is available at most of the gas service stations/centers..................sodeep

If you have a 4 cylinder, all sensors can be accessed from the ground. They are mounted above and below the exhaust manifold, in plain sight.
If you have a V6, the bank 1 sensor 1 and bank 2 sensor 1 can be accessed from the ground, they are located at the top of each exhaust manifold. Both sensor 2's (the ones after the catalytic converters) must be accessed with the vehicle lifted.
To change the sensors out, a proper O2 sensor socket is desirable. If one is not available, the sensor nut is 22mm, but you may have difficulty getting a wrench to work in the limited space available.
I only recommend genuine Mitsubishi/Denso sensors, as they are just plain more reliable. If you do buy aftermarket, be sure they are complete sensors, not cut and splice sensors.
You can unhook the negative battery cable for 5 minutes to reset the light, or use a scantool (Autozone and similar will often reset your light for free).

could be the crank sensor, you need to check spark and fuel delivery, if you have fuel then its got to be the high tension side of things that are wrong, does this model run off a coil pack for the ht, could be that, you said you change the alternator, check connections at the rear of alternator, this could be the supply for the ht etc,good luck.
