The location of the crankshaft position sensor in Honda Accords varies depending on the model, but it is always situated near the crankshaft itself. Replacing the sensor typically costs between $190 and $300, with an additional $200 for installation labor. The sensor is responsible for monitoring the crankshaft's rotational speed. If the sensor malfunctions, it can lead to various problems such as engine stalling, vibration, rough acceleration, and the activation of the check engine light. These issues occur because the engine's timing is inaccurate, affecting its combustion process. Moreover, continued operation with a faulty sensor can place stress on the engine, potentially causing further damage and incurring additional expenses over time.
