  Q: How to remove the Crankshaft Position Sensor on Scion xB?

  A:

  The first step to remove the Crankshaft Position Sensor from the 2AZ-FE engine control system is disconnecting the cable from the negative battery terminal. Start by separating the engine under cover rear RH and then disconnecting the fan & generator V belt. First disconnect the generator connector before removing its nut to free terminal B wire harness. Separate the wire harness clamps and remove the two generator assembly bolts as the next step. Completion of the crankshaft position sensor removal requires detachment of the connector followed by wire harness separation from its connector and then removal of the bolt that secures the crankshaft position sensor.

  Q: How to install the crankshaft position sensor and generator assembly on Scion xB?

  A:

  First apply some engine oil onto the O-ring portion of the sensor before installing it with the torque at 9.0 Nm (90 kgf-cm, 80 in-lbf) while also maintaining the O-ring in its original position. The wire harness needs to be installed followed by the crankshaft position sensor connector clamp before connecting the sensor connector. The generator assembly requires installation via two bolts where Bolt A reaches 21 Nm (215 kgf-cm, 16 ft-lbf) torque and Bolt B reaches 52 Nm (530 kgf-cm, 38 ft-lbf). The generator wire must join terminal B after securing the nut to 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm, 87 in-lbf) followed by tethering the clamp before connecting the generator connector. You must fasten the two wire harness clamps before installing the fan and generator V belt. The engine under cover rear RH should be installed before connecting a cable at the negative battery terminal using a torque setting of 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 48 in-lbf). Check for evidence of oil leakage as the final protocol.
