I have a 2015 genesis sedan 3.8 v6. And I brought the car used it has 57k miles, I was driving and the check engine light came on, I took it to advance Auto and they ran the code it was for the crankshaft position sensor. So i took it to the dealer ship and after a week, waiting on a harness, which was the cause apparently. Got the car back drove for home and the check engine light was back( checked code and same crankshaft position sensor). Today I disconnected the battery terminals and joined them as to drain all power from the car to see if it needed a bigger reset. But it's back again any idea?

Pull codes again. Then replace the sensor instead of the harness. Sounds like the dealer didn't fix it.

I will when I get off in the morning. And that's what I'm going to tell them( replace the actual sensor). They said it was the harness that had shorted out so I'm guessing that's all they replaced.

999% of the time it's the sensor that fails. I would ask to see the old harness which is probably in a landfill by now.

What did they charge you to replace crankshaft sensor ?

ive had to replace two of those sensors so far, wiring harness seems pretty sturdy to me. I pack a spare sensor now they are so common lol
