2005 Dodge Caravan SE 2.4L Engine. Crank Shaft Sensor is located on the front of the engine (side toward the radiator) and right below the starter.
Raise the vehicle on stands or ramps. From under the vechcle, unclip the wire plug. Loosen and remove the 8mm bolt. Pull out old sensor.
This CAN be done WITHOUT removing the starter. Easiest way is to use a deep 8mm x 1/4” drive socket and good lighting. I had to use vise grips to grip and pul out the old sensor. It is okay to twist and pull.
NOTE: I have seen many posts placing this sensor in all kinds of places. For this vehicle, this is where it is located. If you have a different engine or year, it could be located someplace else.

the most common reason for this is the crank sensor being bad, the connection at the crank sensor needing cleaning or tightening, or possibility the distributor pick up module being bad (in the distributor cap, under the rotor).

Sit on top of engine, follow the spark plug wires to it.

The crank sensor is located on the top side of the transmission about 11:oo clock position

The 3.3/3.8L crankshaft sensor is located on the rear of the transmission housing, above the differential housing.

it is located on the bellhousing of the transmission it gets its signal from the flywheel.look where the transmission bolts to the engine.
