Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
Purpose/Function
-
Detects the crankshaft speed as basic information for mainly determining the fuel injection timing and ignition timing.
-
Detects the crankshaft speed and inputs it to the PCM as a CKP signal.
Construction
-
Installed on the side of the cylinder block (right side).
-
An MR (Magnetic Resistance) element has been adopted as the detecting element for detecting the crankshaft speed.
Operation
-
Inputs the signal, which fluctuates according to the crankshaft speed, to the PCM.

Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Removal/Installation
CAUTION:
When foreign material such as an iron chip is on the CKP sensor, it can cause
abnormal output from the sensor because of flux turbulence and adversely affect
the engine control. ...
Crankshaft, Main Bearing
Purpose, Function
The crankshaft converts the reciprocating movement of the piston to a rotational
movement via the connecting rod.
The main bearing forms an oil film on the outer su ...

Engine Oil Level Inspection
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Warm up the engine.
3. Stop the engine and allow at least 5 min before continuing.
4. Remove the dipstick, wipe it cleanly, and reinstall it fully.
5. Remove the dipstick and verify that the oil level is between the F and L marks
on the dipstick. ...
Engine Coolant Level Inspection
WARNING:
Never remove the cooling system cap or loosen the radiator drain plug while
the engine is running, or when the engine and radiator are hot. Scalding engine
coolant and steam may shoot out and cause serious injury. It may also damage
the engine and cooling system.
