Crankshaft sensor question

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
Re: Crankshaft sensor question
I went to mechanic 2 and he said whoever changed the timing belt must've messed up or damaged the crankshaft sensor.
That's only an assumption at best.
Reading the code alone is NOT a diagnosis.
Nobody should be allowed to blame anyone until the sensor is inspected for physical damage.
If there is no physical damage and the wiring connector is still attached, then it's not mechanic A's fault or problem.
Don't you think a broken sensor would have been a problem immediately after the timing belt job was completed? It's now more than 2 months after the fact.
Why can't it simply be a bad sensor? Or a wiring problem? Or a myriad of other possibilities, nobody can tell for certain what is wrong until someone actually fixes it.
I feel like this is mechanic 1's fault and I shouldn't have to pay for everything. Obviously I know next to nothing about cars so any input would be appreciated.
You own both the car and its current problem.
