🔧 Product Description

A toothed sensor wheel used by the engine-speed sensor to determine crankshaft or engine rotational speed in Volvo Penta D3 electronic engine-control systems.

⚙️ Key Features

  • Precision tooth spacing for speed sensing
  • Works with the designated engine-speed sensor
  • Maintains accurate engine-speed and timing reference
  • Requires correct alignment and sensor air gap

🔌 Function

The wheel passes its teeth through the speed sensor's magnetic field, generating the signal used by the engine-control system to calculate engine speed and position.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • No engine-speed signal
  • Crank-no-start condition
  • Intermittent shutdown
  • Damaged or missing teeth
  • Excessive runout
  • Incorrect sensor air gap

🛠️ Service Notes

  • Renew the chain, sprockets and tensioning or guiding parts together where the workshop manual for your engine treats them as a set; a worn sprocket will quickly wear a new chain, and the reverse is equally true
  • Inspect the teeth for hooked, pointed or unevenly worn profiles, and the bore, keyway and locating features for wear, before deciding to reuse anything
  • Clean the shaft, keyway and mating faces and make sure the sprocket seats fully home and runs true, with no burr holding it off
  • Set the timing using the marks on the components and the procedure in the manual for your engine, then turn the engine over by hand and check the marks again
  • Tighten the retaining fastener to the figure in the manual and fit whatever locking washer, plate or tab it specifies
