CLK 500 stalling after crank sensor replacement

Car was hard starting, replaced the crank sensor per the code. Now the car has stalled out 3X. Every time it stalls it seems to be during cranking the wheel' parking lot, corners....idle is fine. Sensor was replaced with an aftermarket unit.

No codes pulling...any thoughts>>>

For certain parts, aftermarket is very risky.

Great! really pleased you have it sorted. That is one sensor I would not go aftermarket on. MAF is another.

NO LONGER ACTIVE
I'll use compatible aftermarket brakes, filters, fluids, belts and hoses, but for engine electronic parts, I have to stick to OEM.
