Hello. Your Ford F250 might have another 'issue' besides a defective/malfunctioning C.P.S. (Crankshaft Position Sensor). I need more information to 'inform' you of possible solution(s). Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

There are some GREAT pictures I think will help you find it. Go to http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1160636-camshaft-position-sensor-cmp-wiring-pigtail-replacement.html It is located under the subject of "Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) wiring pigtail replacement"

It is on the timing cover right side or pass. side.

Check for a crankshaft position sensor circuit being open, or the crankshaft position sensor is bad.

Try to spray starting fluid into the intake of the engine, and then if it starts for a few seconds, then it's a bad fuel delivery problem like a fuel pump or clogged fuel filter.

If the glow plugs aren't working then the Diesel won't fire up.

How old is the Diesel in the truck? Is it out of season?

Crankshaft Position (CP) Sensor OPERATION The CP sensor is mounted on the right front of some V8 engines, is a variable reluctance sensor triggered by a trigger pulse wheel (36 minus 1 tooth). Its purpose is to provide the PCM with an accurate ignition timing reference (when the piston reaches 10 degrees BTDC) and injector operation information (twice each crankshaft revolution). The crankshaft vibration damper is fitted with a 4 lobe pulse ring. As the crankshaft rotates, the pulse ring lobes interrupt the magnetic field at the tip of the CP sensor.
TESTING -crankshaft position sensor Using DVOM on the AC scale and set to monitor less than 5V, measure voltage between the sensor Cylinder Identification (CID) terminal and ground. The sensor is okay if the voltage reading varies more than 0.1V AC with the engine running at varying RPM.

Also called the cam sensor on the 7.3. It is located in the front of the engine just above the harmonic balancer just to the right. 10mm Bolt holds it in. Easier to get to from below going up behind radiator. Disconnect plug then remove bolt then wiggle it out. Make sure oring came with it and then replace with a black one. Some people say to use a blue one but i have had no trouble with a black one from Autozone.

You should be getting the check engine light on. Take the truck to Autozone or similar business for a free computer scan (they will be happy to sell you any needed parts). The crankshaft sensor is the other critical sensor that controls fuel injection and ignition. The scan results should point that out if it is a problem. Hope this gets you running again!

engine speed is calculated from the crankshaft sensor, not the cam sensor. cam sensor only used to denote no 1 cyl TDC

go to autozone .com they have site that will help you right away with componet locations and truoble shooting and how to fix it all you do is enter your f 250 on how to fix it top left of there site you will be happy frm [email protected]

They are the same.The engine with the 5 speed has abushing in the crankshaft.
