Frequently asked questions

What is the ERR2079 crankshaft sensor and what does it do?
The ERR2079 is the crankshaft position sensor for the 2.5-litre 300TDi turbo diesel engine. It reads the toothed signal from the rotating crankshaft and supplies engine speed and crankshaft position data to the electronic diesel control (EDC) system.
Does this fit all 300TDi vehicles?
This crankshaft sensor is listed for the Discovery 1 (1989-1998) 300TDi with automatic transmission. The crank sensor and EDC setup were tied to that application, so confirm your Discovery 1 is the automatic EDC version before ordering.
Why does a crankshaft sensor fail, and what are the symptoms?
Crankshaft sensors typically fail from heat, vibration, or oil contamination at the tip. Common symptoms are a no-start, stalling, or erratic running, because the EDC loses the crank position signal. A failed sensor often leaves the engine cranking but not firing.
Where is the crankshaft sensor located?
The crankshaft sensor typically mounts near the crankshaft or flywheel ring gear on the 300TDi, reading a toothed reluctor as it turns. It belongs to the engine management (EDC) system. Keep the tip clear of metallic debris when fitting.
