CLAAS Id7748h / 7748h (637 06) – Engine Module ENG (A15): Intensity of the crankshaft position sensor high.
Issue description
The Engine Control Unit detects an abnormally high electrical current (low resistance) on the crankshaft position sensor circuit. This is typically caused by a short circuit to ground in the wiring harness or an internal short within the sensor itself. The engine will continue to run normally without considering the information delivered by the sensor in error, relying instead on the camshaft/high-pressure pump position sensor to determine engine timing.

Check the cause
Inspect the Crankshaft Position Sensor (Component ID: B231) for physical damage or internal electrical shorts
Check the Engine Module ENG (A15) to ensure the module's connector pins are clean and seated properly
Test the wiring harness between the B231 sensor and the A15 Engine Module for a short to ground
Repair steps
Locate the Sensor
Locate the crankshaft position sensor (B231) on the engine block.
Inspect the Wiring
Disconnect the sensor and carefully inspect the wiring harness leading back to the ENG (A15) module. Look for rubbed-through insulation or pinched wires causing a short to ground.
Test the Sensor
Use a multimeter to test the internal resistance of the crankshaft position sensor. If the resistance is out of specification (indicating an internal short), the sensor is faulty.
Repair/Replace
If the wiring harness is damaged, repair the shorted section. If the harness tests fine but the sensor is shorted, replace the crankshaft position sensor (B231).
Clear Codes
Reconnect the sensor, turn on the ignition, and use a diagnostic tool (such as CLAAS Metadiag) to clear the Id7748h / 637 06 fault code from the ENG (A15) module.
Verify Repair
Start the engine and verify that the code does not return and that engine timing synchronization is restored.
