Give Your Link ECU the Engine Position Data It Needs
Accurate engine position information is critical to any standalone engine management system.
The Link ECU Crank Angle Sensor (CAS) provides the ECU with the crankshaft position signal required to accurately determine engine speed and position so it can correctly control fuel injection and ignition timing.
Whether you're building a custom engine, replacing a damaged sensor, or creating a complete standalone ECU installation, a reliable crank signal is one of the foundations of a properly running engine.
Why the Crank Signal Is So Important
Your ECU needs to know exactly where the crankshaft is and how fast the engine is rotating.
Crank position data is used for critical engine-management functions including:
- Engine RPM detection
- Ignition timing
- Fuel injection timing
- Engine synchronization
- Starting and cranking
- RPM limiting
- Datalogging
- Engine protection strategies
Without a clean and reliable crank signal, even the best ECU calibration can't properly control the engine.
Designed for Link ECU Installations
The Link ECU CAS is ideal for compatible Link ECU systems and custom trigger configurations where a dedicated crank angle sensor is required.
It's a great option for:
- Standalone ECU installations
- Custom engine builds
- Engine swaps
- Custom crank trigger systems
- Turbocharged engines
- Naturally aspirated engines
- Race cars
- Drag cars
- Road-racing applications
- Custom engine harnesses

Reliable Trigger Data = Reliable Engine Control
When diagnosing a standalone ECU that cranks but won't start, experiences synchronization errors, or intermittently loses RPM, the trigger system is one of the first areas that needs to be verified.
A properly installed crank angle sensor gives your Link ECU the information necessary to synchronize the engine and maintain accurate ignition and fuel control throughout the RPM range.
For high-performance applications, that signal becomes even more important as engine speed increases.
Perfect for Custom EFI Builds
If you're building an engine harness from scratch or designing a custom trigger system, the Link ECU Crank Angle Sensor (CAS) gives you a purpose-built sensor that can be integrated into a properly engineered Link ECU installation.
Important Compatibility Note
Crank sensors are not universal bolt-on components. Sensor type, trigger-wheel configuration, air gap, mounting position, wiring, ECU trigger settings, and trigger calibration must all be correct for the engine to synchronize properly.
Verify that the Link ECU CAS is suitable for your specific engine and trigger configuration before ordering or installation.
