Hey Shogun,

First, Thanks for all your help!!!

I have a $250.00 Optima Deep Cycle Battery in my baby... it's not a Dead Cell. According to Optima, there is a trick to charging a Deep Cycle Battery... you have to connect it to a second battery that has a good charge and then hook-up the Optima Battery to that using a set of jumper cables "Red to Red-Black to Black" then connect the Charger to the Optima battery side and set it to charge.

This tricks the Battery Charger into thinking that the Optima Battery is still charged at at least 10.5 Volts! Most Battery Chargers will not charge a Battery is it is under 10.5 Volts! Mine went all the way down to 4.4 volts! That's because I have Under Car LEDS and my Car Alarm installed on my vehicle!!! This was draining my Battery due to it not Starting from the Crank Shaft Sensor Problem!

After I got the Battery Charged Again, The Starter began to rotate again as normal, "You Were Right About That!" Thanks! However, I still can't get the Car to Crank Over and Start! Any suggestions on this???

P.S.

RE: Crank Shaft Removal

I forgot to tell you to use a little WD40 on the Sensor Housing before you start tapping it out... This helped me a bunch! I left this out in my previous post to you!

Thanks Again!
