possibly a cam or crank sensor failing once their hot does the check engine light come on

check the fault codes


Ensure ignition switched OFF.
Connect engine diagnostic link connectors (black) Fig.1.1.
Switch ignition ON. DO NOT start engine.
Check that MIL illuminates.
Count MIL flashes. Note trouble codes. Compare with trouble code table.
Trouble codes are indicated as follows:
Long flashes indicate the 'tens' of the trouble code Fig.2.A.
Short flashes indicate the 'units' of the trouble code Fig.2.B.
A short pause separates each flash Fig.2.C.
A long pause separates each trouble code.
For example: Trouble code displayed: 24. Idle air control (IAC) valve Fig.2.
Switch ignition OFF.
Disconnect engine diagnostic link connectors (black) Fig.1.1.

Cam or crank sensor.. if you remove and clean them they should be fine again for a bit..

no stupid at all.

cam sensor is below oil filler neck with a 10mm headed bolt holding it on and an electrical plug with 2wires.. unplug, undo bolt and slide it up and clean the barrel/cylinder part that was within the engine.. crank sensor is the same looks wise only under the alternator amongst the belt, just above cam covers.

Cheers mate that has been a great help will have to check them in the mornin thank you both so much could have saved my bacon with the wife

Felton

Any idea what's best to clean them with ?

Legacy GT-B

Just a rag will do they are magnetic so you will just be removing any build up of crap

Felton

Thank you guys you have been very helpfull
