the engine could crank if the starter portoin of the ignition switch worked, but another contact didn't. Again, is your tach dead when the car won't start?
The hall sensor is how the computer/ignition gets a tach signal from the engine. I think in your car it's at the crankshaft, flywheel end under the harmonic balancer (main pulley). I belive this is a not uncomon failure. If your tach bounces when your car won't start, this can not be the problem. if your tach does not bounce, this may or may not be.
