2004 Mercedes C220 Diesel P0336 Crankshaft Position Sensor Fault - Won't Start After Replacement
Hi everyone, I've got a 2004 Mercedes C220 diesel with a persistent P0336 crankshaft position sensor fault code. I replaced the sensor with an original Mercedes part, and it started working for about one hour. However, now the engine won't start at all—neither starting nor cranking. Any ideas on what might be causing this? Could there be another issue beyond just the sensor itself?
Common causes of P0336 include: - A faulty crankshaft position (CKP) sensor - Damage or debris in the reluctor ring (missing teeth, foreign material lodged) - The reluctor ring dislodged or stripped from its mounting location - Chafed wiring harness causing a short circuit - Open wiring in the CKP sensor circuit For more details: https://www.autozone.com/p0336
