New guy here, 2.3 crank sensor problem

[Journbisc]

Got most of the way taking everything all apart, was going to do the timing when I realized the sensor is actually broken. (Hint why it won’t start up?). But my problem is how do I get the dang thing through the timing cover and shove the new one back through? I have it disconnected on both ends but I can’t pull it out or anything. Please help this is my daily driver an I’m currently riding a bike to an from work.

Welcome to TRS

You have to loosen rear plastic cover to pull old wires out and put new wires in

10mm bolts I believe

Yes, crank sensor is about the only sensor that can cause a No Start when its not working, so the Big Kahuna of sensors
