2005 X5 4.4 won't crank over sometimes

[andrewwynn]

Secondary failures that will produce these symptoms:

EWS antenna (key side or column)

Crank position sensor.

Do you any sense of power stoke?

EWS antenna failure is possible but rare compared to previously mentioned and most likely terminal if it occurs.

What has crank position sensor to do with starter activation?
