Default Re: hall sensor

It is the small sensor that sits on top of the gearbox and basically tells the ECU that the engine is turning... if it were to fail (as mine did) the car would turn over but wouldn't start as the ECU would think that the engine wasn't turning over and so wouldn't ignite/inject fuel.

You having starting problems or just curious?

If its a 1.6 its in the distributor and very common to fail.
