    [quote user="HercuLean"] What you need is called the "Pick-Up Assembly" but it is the crank position sensor. Part number is below (for an 05 but I think they're all the same). I got mine from http://www.motorsportssuperstore.com/ Takes about an hour to install and if you lean...

  • Re: Crank position sensor / Pickup sensor / CPS

    This is the typical CPS failure shown here. Cracked Black conductor and nothing at all to do with oil temperature and solder break down Mine failed exactly as shown in the 1st photo. The failure is due to extreme vibration from the CPS which is a reluctance device. The magnetic core of the CPS vibrates...

    Crankshaft position sensor (CPS) black wire was fractured/severed completely and i suspect at certain speeds throughout the gears would loose continuity from the frequency of the motor vibrations. Strangely, it appeared to act up at the exact same throttle position in all gears [:0] [B)] I didn't...

    Edited: I encapsulated the wires on the back of the sensor with Permatex® Ultra Gray® RTV Silicone Gasket Maker after verifying that both wires were not under any stress. My bikes CPS started acting up at 18,735 miles and never broke down! The BLACK wire at the soldered connection severed just...
