Have just replaced the camshaft and crankshaft sensor on audi a4 2.0tdi s-line. Also just replaced the timing belt. The car won't start now, no error codes are coming up. Battery full but coming on dash that it's low. Any help appreciated thanks

Hi re check the cam belt timing or did it run fine after the belt was changed and only play up after the sensor change.

Was working fine before, only changed as had the console off and looked a bit frayed when changing the sensor

Hi its possible that you have a dodgy sensor, not unknown, I have pulled them out of a new box and fitted them and had the same result, avoid NAPA or any of the own brand stuff on eBay you can't go wrong with a bit of FEBI/HELLA/BOSCH they might be a bit dearer but when fitted you will see where the extra money went.

Hi it is still possible its a wrong un try fitting the old one and see what happens if its the same you could have a wiring problem at the plug on the main loom where it connects to the sensor.
