The crank sensor, is more then likely called a crankshaft position sensor(CKP), which monitors and determines timing for fuel injection and ignition of each cylinder, and also detects engine speeds. A crankshaft is the shaft in your engine that is connected to your connecting rods, which in turn is connected to your pistons.

Hope that helps.
