Luke Rooney had not scored a goal since 28 December 2014
Luke Rooney's stunning stoppage-time goal earned Crawley a point at Exeter.
Alex Nicholls had given City a great start when he lashed home Tom Nichols' pass after Clinton Morrison's dummy.
Sonny Bradley levelled as he found himself unmarked to head home Simon Walton's corner.
Nicholls struck a 20-yard half-volley to put Exeter back in front on the stroke of half-time, before Rooney's audacious 91st-minute shot flew past Bobby Olejnik and into the top corner.
Crawley Town boss Mark Yates told BBC Surrey:
Mark Yates: Crawley Town boss on draw to Exeter
"I think it was deserved. It always looks harsh on the home when you get a goal in the 92nd minute, but we kept plugging away.
"We showed a spirit coming from a goal down twice and we've come a long way since the start of the season. It's pleasing we are making progress and we are far from the finished article but we are getting a way to play and we're working hard at it.
"I thought the substitutes made a massive part of it, and something tactical genius from myself.
"When you pick eleven and I think that's my best eleven for the game and you give me 70-80 per-cent. I ask the players who come on to continue the momentum and the ones today made it."
