Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Inspection
Visual Inspection
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. Be sure there is no foreign material on the CKP sensor when replacing.
-
Do not assemble the CKP sensor or change the installation position using any method other than the following. Otherwise, it could negatively affect engine controls, such as the ignition timing and fuel injection.
1. Remove the CKP sensor..
2. Verify that there are no metal shavings on the sensor.
-
If there is a malfunction, remove any metal shavings that are adhering.
Voltage Inspection
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. Be sure there is no foreign material on the CKP sensor when replacing.
-
Do not assemble the CKP sensor or change the installation position using any method other than the following. Otherwise, it could negatively affect engine controls, such as the ignition timing and fuel injection.
-
If the wiring harnesses or waterproof connectors are damaged, water penetrating the connector will cause a sensor malfunction. To prevent this, be careful not to damage wiring harnesses or waterproof connectors.
1. Idle the engine.
2. Measure the CKP sensor output voltage using the oscilloscope.
-
If not as specified, replace the CKP sensor..

Trailer Towing (U.S.A. and Canada)
Your Mazda was designed and built primarily to carry passengers and cargo.
If you tow a trailer, follow these instructions because driver and passenger
safety depends on proper equipment and safe driving habits. Towing a trailer will
affect handling, braking, ...
Traction Control System (TCS)
The Traction Control System (TCS) enhances traction and safety by controlling
engine torque and braking.
When the TCS detects driving wheel slippage, it lowers engine torque and operates
the brakes to prevent loss of traction.
This means that on a slick surface, the engine adjusts automaticall ...
Storage Compartments
WARNING
Keep storage boxes closed when driving:
Driving with the storage boxes open is dangerous. To reduce the possibility of
injury in an accident or a sudden stop, keep the storage boxes closed when driving.
CAUTION
Do not leave lighters or eyeglasses in the storage boxes while parked under ...
