Crank sensor and timing belt related?

I had my timing belt on my 2003 Hyundai XG350 replaced 300 miles ago and today the crank sensor failed and needed replaced. Was it that a faulty installation of the timing belt caused the sensor failure or are they not related?

Its possible, was the crank sensor physically damaged or just an internal failure. That would determine if it was a coincidence or not.

I have a 2004 xg350 with 67719 miles 3 codes to replace cam position sensor the ignition sensor the car is acting crazy someone said since previous owner babied it reset my computer how do i do this

If you have a OBD Code reader you can do a clear of the codes.
( if not then go to autozone and ask for them to clear-it's Free)
You may also just disconnect your battery for 5 mins and reconnect which may clear the codes.
Just clearing codes won't fix the problem if you really have a cam sensor gone bad,(this happens) this can make a car act bad.
Both the cam and Crank sensors report to the computer if they feel sick, then the computer stores the codes. IF the Cam Sensor needs replacing it's not so bad to replace BUT the Crank sensor is buried under the timing belt cover and that can take some doing, Either may be by a profession if you are not one. Parts could cost under $50 or so.Labor not bad for the cam BUT much more for The Crank sensor. It's always good to replace the Crank sensor if the timing belt Kit-and water pump is done.

02 Hyundai XG350 new spark coils still won't start

No fuel pressure or volume, need gauge to check these, timing belt if so equipped, crank sensor, ignitor or ignition module if so equipped.

Did it die while driving or was it a no start after sitting ?

Engine size ?

Replace timing belt on 2005 hyundai xg350 v6

When I did a timing chain on my Datsun I set up TDC on number 1 cylinder and then used a dob of paint on each pulley and a fixed point on the engine so that I could make sure everything lined up the same when I changed the chain.

How do you set the timing marks before i replace the timing belt 3.5 engine

Do not remove the old belt until all the marks are lined up. Only then should the old belt be removed. Turning the cams or crank with the belt removed can cause engine damage!

I had my crank sensor replaced at 59,000 miles

The timing and balance belts are 'wear' items, not covered under warranty unless they fail during the warranty period. How many miles were on the vehicle when the crank sensor was replaced? Did they recommend you replace the timing & balance belts at that time? I assume the damage which occurred happened after the 60,000 mile warranty. If so, the repair is not covered under warranty.

I had my crank sensor replaced at 59,000 miles and now I have to have it done again at 73,000 told the warranty was 60,000 miles, so should I not have another 60,000 warranty on it

Nope, components replaced under warranty does not change/extend the warranty period -- still the same warranty period. What happened to the sensor?... Damaged by the timing/ balanace belt? Has it been over a year ago since the sensor was replaced? If so, then there is no warranty coverage for this repair.
