Model: Peugeot 207 MK 1 - Years 2006-2015
Part: Crankshaft position sensor

The crankshaft sensor is also known as CKP, and its function is to monitor the position and speed of the crankshaft, providing information to the engine's electronic control unit: it provides the necessary data to calculate the exact timing for injection and ignition; it measures the rotation speed of the crankshaft and contributes to a smooth and stable acceleration, ensuring maximum fuel efficiency. Inside the Peugeot 207, this component is located at the rear of the engine, well protected inside it, and to access it we must necessarily lift the vehicle.
