Default 1995 Cabriolet crank but not start
I was moving my 1995 Cabriolet to the other side of the street when it just died. It will crank over but not start. It has no spark to the engine. I went ahead and replaced the cam position sensor. Could it be the ECU or ignition module. It's a 23 yo car although low mileage. Thanks for any help..Kip

Have you considered the crank position sensor?

Yes. I can replace that also, it wont hurt being an old car replacing these parts now will avoid doing so late down the road.

I wouldn’t advise just throwing parts at this. Research this site for old post by me regarding a diagnostic for the crank position sensor.

Has anyone ever had a crank lock pin NOT go into the crank hole due to the 2 holes not lining up?
