The Crankshaft sensor on the Vauxhall Corsa is a Common fault, but it is a job that is repairable with just a couple of tools, and a jack.
I will list the tools below with Links to buy from Amazon if you need.

Absolutely spot on mate thank you after watching your video I was able to fix the same problem on my corsa within 30 mins 😊 thanks again xx
Glad it helped Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Well done a really nice video with no stupid music and shaky camera work good stuff
Thanks Paul for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I just changed mine this morning. It took me about an hour and a half to get my old sensor out!!. I had screwdrivers, grips, prybars, pliers, WD40. really does take some perseverance but took about 2 minutes to get the new sensor in and the cars running like dream now!
Nice work! well done Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Love your real world presentation, warts and all! We all know working on (and particularly under) cars is never as straightforward as the workshop manual makes out. Not looking forward to tackling this job after lunch today on my neighbours Corsa. Thanks for a great tutorial video. 👍
Hope it goes well, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
How did it go mate ? I’ve just bought one for my sons and will attempt it tomorrow. I’ve set aside a few hours to do it with the expectation that it’s gonna be a bugger to get out. I need to be patient and take my time. Will wack some WD40 on first and leave over night.
@@pataleno I didn't need to change the sensor in the end. I forget what I did to get it going my memory is terrible. Sorry can't help but best of luck with your son's car. 🤞
@@Ralph2 Yeh no worries mate. Storm Weather permitting I will do it. I have bought the sensor. Changed everything else... battery coil pack and plugs. Last thing if it's not the sensor is the timing Chain. that's gonna be expensive,
@@Ralph2 Cheers mate. Just changed the Crankshaft sensor (in the rain) and still no start. So now i've changed this week.
Battery (which was poor)
Ignition coil.
Spark Plugs
Crankshaft sensor
Cranks but does not fire. Will test if i'm getting spark to plugs tomorrow. Booked into garage on Monday. Gutted if it's Timing Chain.
Thank you very much for this needed a new crankshaft I was like “How am I doing this!?” But it’s now back on the road all to you. Vauxhall has got the worst engines
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Well done mate,

Thanks for the swift reply i have attached link of my issue hopefully that will help. ua-cam.com/video/4H0ICNeUM5A/v-deo.html
Hi. Thanks for the video. I have a 2011 corsa 1.2 se manual. Just the other day the clutch went on it so got that replaced but now the car won't start. Display shows f where the trip mileage and fuel range is normally displayed. Any ideas what it could be. Could it be also the crankshaft sensor?
yes possible the crank sensor was damaged when the work was carried out, of the connector is not on correctly, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Excellent! Thanks. I have 3 readers, first two gave no codes, bought Xtool D7 for this no start ...still no codes. Suggest short in a module /wiring? ECU? Will change this thanks to YOU!!😀😁
If you check for engine speed settings on live data you will see if its working, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Cheers buddy
Any time! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Great video! I've got a corsa c that's turning over but won't start.its showing a spanner and car light on the dash which I looked on Google and said service due.i serviced the car but its still the same.any ideas?
This sensor is usually the issue, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Is there no room to get mole grips on to pull her out...great video doin my dads 1.0L this weekend thanks
its tight, if you have a small pair you might get them in, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
try removing it with a long bent nose plier makes life easy. great video
Thanks for the tip! & Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I have same issue. Only thing is no codes come up on diagnostic. Can you help advice what it can be? Is it worth changing crankshaft sensor anyway
Definitely. this is the most Common fault on this car, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hello thanks for reply can this change by original parts or just conventional parts is okay...pls reply thanks
link is in the description for a aftermarket sensor Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hiya mate on my car the rev counter moves a little when I crank it but doesnt start. But then starts the second time or after multiple tries.
Usually is the crank sensor, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hy Aanton,My 1.2 corsa D is vibrating and the idle is not stable at all, it may be from this sensor or from the spark plugs?
more likely to be the coil pack fault, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I have an 07 Corsa D that sometimes struggles when cranking and or wont start without throttle but no codes? Checked the sparks and fuel pump etc but saw no issues. Reckon its the Crank sensor?
Possible, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thinking this might be my issue. Corsa D 1.0.
On occasion can crank forever and it wont start, the 2nd attempt starts first time.
New plugs are black after 2 weeks of minimal driving so its over fueling as well.
Changed plugs, coil pack, air mass meter, injectors, cleaned throttle body. Fuel pressure fine and pump primes.
No fault codes.
Any thoughts on possible cause?
Crank sensor, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hello...do you re- learn the crankshaft sensor after installing it..they might have problem in the future? How's going? It will be ok without re- learning...thanks I'll wait for the answer...
plug and play, you will need to clear the eobd codes with a reader but the car will run without, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 I changed this sensor car started I then erased the dtc code now car wont start
Can i use normal jack to go underneath or must use bricks to lift up
if you are going under the car you need something solid under the car incase the jack gives way, axle stand/bricks/wood/car wheels, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hello...my situation is when cranking 1st time no start..but for the 2nd time it's start...but the rpm meter tickle backward movement...what does it cause? it is really a crankshaft sensor? I'd try to go underneath the car and inspect I'd try to disconnect the harness it's very tight because i buy sensor in Amazon i think it is a hard job...what do counsel ..go to mechanic or i need you opinion...thanks.....
They can be tight but like in the video tap and wiggle, they will come out, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hello there, I’m hoping you can help, my friend has a Vauxhall corsa 2011 limited edition, hasn’t been started in over a year and a half, went to start it earlier, started first time run for about a minute, then cut out and wouldn’t start again, any thoughts? I believe the fuel filter is in the tank and not a serviceable part
Many thanks
Is the fuel pump running in the tank? Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 how would I know if the fuel pump is running?
@@grahamgeorge1130 when you turn on the dash, before you actually start the engine, you can hear the fuel pump priming
Hi. Many thanks.. Can I replace with a sensor from eBay ( not original)?
Yes there are many pattern parts, like this one for £9 on amazon amzn.to/35soQAw ,Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Mine's always worn down on the end...Still runs for ages but have to change after a year or so.
strange, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Cheers
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi anton. Have a 2007 corsa and it cuts out when idle. Starts up OK now and again but other day it was cranking alot but wouldn't start. Left it for bout 20 min, started up. Got it home then cut out rolling into driveway... Crankshaft sensor??
that would be my goto, if you have a code reader like this one £22 amzn.to/2FSXCcX it will tell you for definite, small chance the fuel pump might be binding, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 thanks for the reply mate👍🏻
@@aaanton11 are the code readers easy enough to use?
nice and easy I have a video on it lol ua-cam.com/video/FJMDuWnGMII/v-deo.html Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@paulotoole7544 Hi,
I just seen youre comment,
I know its a year ago lol.
I am having the exact problem with my corsa.
2010 1.4
Did you sort it,
Was it the crankshaft sensor?
Is this the sensor that transmits speed information to the speedometer?
No this is just engine position, the speed is taken from the abs sensors, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Can this crankshaft sensor replace not original one from Amazon?
The one from Amazon should fit perfectly link is in the description thanks for the great comments 👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Done a few!! Neck breaker!! Unless ya got car ramps ina garage
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hello I have opel corsa D 1.2 gpl tech its bi fuel but the problem is crank too long before it starts..I scan it obd2 but no engine light issues can you help me sometimes when you crank rpm no moving but sometimes its moving please help thanks
Sounds like the crank shaft sensor, you don't always get a code, try replacing it they are not expensive, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 thanks for reply can this change by original parts or just conventional parts will be ok? Pls reply thanks
Check the link in the description for parts Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi is this the same sensor on a 63 plate 1.0
yes, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Will the engine try firing but just not start?
No fire, spark or fuel, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I have the same problem with corsa D the engine is not firing I have changed the crank sensor but still same problem
What fault coats are you getting from the EOBD socket? Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 I'm not sure what the mechanic gets but the diagnosis caught the sensor can a socket have an effect
What if the cars loses power when drive and it over heats?
Could be many things ie thermostat, air lock, low coolant, head gasket, or water pump you need to do some tests, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Won’t start first attempt keeps clicking but will second or third attempt problem happens for about a week then goes away for a few weeks then comes back again, car is vauxhall corsa 1.2 diesel 16plate 55k miles.
sounds like the starter motor solenoid needs attention, like on this car, ua-cam.com/video/mGYZXqcyU1c/v-deo.html Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
15 minutes took me an hour on one
Well done, they can be tight, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I Change it but still same problem dont know why
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Think mine has the same now. Engine turns but not fire up.
Changed battery coil pack and plugs. No success. Wish I’d have seen this. FFS !
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I’m not looking forward to doing mine…😒
you will be fine, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Vauxhall really is crappy engineering compared to Saab etc….
Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi!
I've a Opel Corsa C 1.4 16v
the engine start good, and not codes or ligths on the dashbord appers, but after 15 or 20 minutes after the start and when the engine get temperature 90°c the engine cut out, after that, I trying to restart it, but the half of the dashbord is off... no check engine light, no oil, no inmo, nothing light are ON... after that 1 hour and when the engine is cold or warm, the engine start again normally. So I decided change the crankshaft position sensor. again, the engine start well, but after 10 minutes the engine cut off again, but now any light on the dashboard of... then I try to start the engine but only cranks...
Do you think that is necessary do a releard to sensor or the ecu is damaged or the connector o wires?
What's you think?
Thanks for your comments back.
Regards from Mexico!
Sounds like the ignition switch is burning out, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
