To locate the crankshaft position sensor you will need to remove the timing belt cover.The sensor is located just above the crank gear between the "V" of the timing belt. The sensor is held in place by on bolt and the weiring connector of course.

Go to www.autozone.com. Great website...it will show you where to locate the part and even give you instructions on how to fix it.

The crank shaft sensor is located on the front of the engine under the timing cover. In order to replace it you will need to remove the timing belt.

the crank position sensor is located to the back of the engine to the left of the oil filter, it is right next to the oil filter on the back side of the engine. hope this helps. Please rate my fix as i strive to be the best. need more help, get back to me Thanks Ray

The Crankshaft Position Sensor is located: Under hood, driver side, front engine area, mounted rear of crankshaft pulley
The Knock Sensor is located: Under hood, center, front engine area, below intake manifold, mounted on block

Look around the bottom of cylinder block. Or near where the flywheel is to, because the crank angle sensor works from missing teeth or magnets on the flywheel or a cog/wheel fixed to the crankshaft.Hope this helps

The sensor is bolted to the top of the cylinder block near the rear of right cylinder head
The sensor is accessed by removing the right front fender liner

1. Remove right front tire and right front wheelhouse liner.
2. Disconnect crankshaft position sensor pigtail harness from main wiring harness.
3. Remove two sensor (recessed hex head) mounting bolts
4. Remove sensor from engine.

crank sensor is a component used in an internal combustion engine to monitor the position or rotational speed of the crankshaft. This information is used by engine management systems to control ignition system timing and other engine parameters. Before electronic crank sensors were available, the distributor would have to be manually adjusted to a timing mark on the engine.

The crank sensor can be used in combination with a similar camshaft position sensor to monitor the relationship between the pistons and valves in the engine, which is particularly important in engines with variable valve timing. It is also commonly the primary source for the measurement of engine speed in revolutions per minute.

Crank sensors in engines are usually comprised of magnets and an inductive coil. They are principally based on the Hall effect. Common mounting locations include the main crank pulley, the flywheel, or occasionally on the crankshaft itself.

Some engines, such as GM's Premium V family utilise crank position sensors which read a reluctor ring integral to the Harmonic Balancer. This is a much more accurate method of determining the position of the crankshaft, and allows the computer to determine within a few degrees the exact position of the crankshaft (and thereby all connected components) at any given time.

The crank sensor is under the oil sending unit on the back of the motor next to the firewall. It is held in the block by an 8mm bolt. It has to be removed from under the car. Get under the car on the RH side and get back far enough that you can see over the transaxle. Good Luck.
