If one of these sensors are bad how will they make the truck act. I think I've got a short in one of them, never had one of these go bad so I don't know how the truck acts. Just trying to learn something.

Never seen one go bad, there hall effect sensors so there's no parts to break...unless they got to much voltage.

Thought you can swap them into the wrong hole.

I had a crank sensor go out on mine before. I just shut off and didn't want to crank. Finally got it to crank and let it idle back into the yard. I changed it and haven't had a problem since. Before it went out I would get like a miss when running it hard but that was the only symptom until it shut off.
