I got a diagnostic and it came up my crankshaft needs replacing and yesterday my car would not start. Will a bad crankshaft stop my car from starting?

The sensor is accessed from the back of the motor by the starter motor. It is in a really tight place. It is a pain to access. You will need a bright light and very small fingers to release the wire connector and access the bolt that secures the sensor. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what you find.
