The 2012 Fiesta is likely a good match. I'd pull the old part (likely to have a part number on it), but from a photo on Amazon, it looks like the right part. It's a bit of a POA to pull it out (had to rotate back and forth to eventually get it to come out), but pretty straightforward to put back in.

My Gen 3 in TX is now having this same problem. I had the crank sensor swapped out and still no dice. The car cranks, has fuel, fuel pressure, full charge on the battery. What now?

We’re going to swap ECU’s with another car to see if it’s an ECU issue.

Crank sensor Ferd part number is BE8Z6C315A

Let me know if swapping your ECU works. You might have to also swap your throttle body to match or recalibrate.

Brandon at BSP in Frisco has an extra ECU/PCM. Turns out my car fired right up when he plugged in to the new ECU so I have a faulty computer in my car.
