Which one? There are two crankshaft position sensors on the 3.1L.
One is the 24X sensor. It is located behind the crankshaft pulley, installed into the timing cover. The other sensor, the 7X sensor (this is the one that is it fails will cause a no-start condition), is located on the outside of the engine block, close to the crankshaft.

It's held down by one bolt right above the timing chain cover. It's next to the head that's facing toward the front of the car.

sometimes you can test the sensor with a multimeter(volt meter that measure OHMS), it should have some reading, if it is open(no reading) it is bad. Some autozone locations can test this sensor

The crankshaft position sensor is a two pin sensor made up of plastic like material. It is located on the back side of the engine block about half way between the oil pan and the top of the block. It can only be accessed by crawling under the car. 33899bbd-15f1-451a-9a7a-a94f8be62e27.png

Jsut want to know where crankshaft position sensor

Hi!!

here are illustrations of the CKP (crankshaft position) sensor in 2.3L and 3.0L.

Note: In the bottom of the 2.3L drawing says Trottle Position (TP) Sensor, this is wrong, It should say CKP Sensor.


2.3L Engine


The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is located to the left of the crankshaft pulley.
