..

these are the steps i found for a 2001 to 2005 you may have to research a bit to make sure they are the same for a 2006 most auto stores will be able to tell you this but make sure u get a second opinion just to be safe

Many of the newer cars have the crank sensor located on the flywheel.

It depends on WHICH fuel sensor are you looking for. The fuel level sensor is part of the fuel pump module assembly, which is located INSIDE the fuel tank. The fuel temperature sensor is mounted in the TOP of the fuel tank.
Note: The fuel teperature sensor only applies to early production 2.4L engines. Other 2006 Kia Optima's are not equipped with one.

the sensor is most always located infront of the timng cover behind the crank pully or harmonic balancer on the crank shaft

Hi LIsa:
On 2001-2005 vehicles the crankshaft sensor is mounted on the front of the transmission case adjacent to the flywheel.

On 2006 vehicles the crankshaft position sensor is located next to the radiator hose inlet and outlet assembly.

I really hope this helps, and just keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Have a nice day and thanks for using FixYa.

1 all of you are stupid, and why would a crank sensor be located in the tank?!!!!
2 problem is the ignition failure sensor. had the same thing

The crankshaft position sensior is locarted at the crankshaft pulley behind the timing belt cover, see picture below.

the crank sensor should be located on the left rear of the engine nearest the bell housing. the exciter ring is bolted on the end of the crankshaft inside the crankcase. holp this helps. cheers

its on the camshaft behind the timing cover ---i think ??
