The crankshaft position sensor mounts to the engine block behind the alternator near the oil filter.

Guessing from anywhere won't get down to the answer A shop has to do the proper testing to find a problem You know that We can only answer questions with test results or someone having things apart in the driveway & are lost as how to proceed

Are you referring to the blower motor resistor? It controls blower motor speed on the ground side of your blower motor.

Just answered ...:)

Traction control usually uses part of your ABS brake system to function. Sometimes a dirty (or worn out) wheel sensor is the problem that triggers both "check engine" and "traction control"...This can be verified with the proper diagnostic meter, and many shops will perform this test for free...unfortunately the free check at the auto parts stores does not include reading the ABS/Traction sensors...sensor cost is about $65. sometimes they can be cleaned. Hope this helps.

For the engine light, get the OBD2 code read. this will tell you what it wrong and you can get help or advice on how to fix it. As far as the traction light goes, it is most likely a wheel speed sensor failure. If one of the four of the wheel speed sensors fails, you will get a traction control light. It is very likely that your ABS will not work properly if a wheel speed sensor is bad.

the oil cooler is not the same as a transmission fluid cooler. the lines are not connected and never intermingle.

I had a similar problem with my 2002 Ford F-150. It turned out to be a loose battery terminal cable. I don't know if that's your problem but worth looking into it.

Hi Roberta, here's the instructions on how to remove your door panel. I have to wonder though on why you are removing it, my guess is you window doesn't roll up or down and your replacing the regulator. Any way here goes.

REMOVAL

1. Remove the plug and remove screw attaching door pull cup to inner door panel.
2. Remove switch bezel and disconnect power window/memory switch.
3. Remove screws attaching trim panel to door from below map pocket.
4. If equipped, remove window crank. (Refer to 23 - BODY/DOOR - FRONT/WINDOW CRANK - REMOVAL)
5. Remove screw holding door trim to door panel from behind inside latch release handle .
6. Disengage clips attaching door trim to door frame around perimeter of panel.
7. Lift trim panel upward to disengage flange from inner belt molding at top of door.
8. Tilt top of trim panel away from door to gain access to latch linkage.
9. Disengage clip attaching linkage rod to inside latch release handle (INSIDE DOOR HANDLE LINKAGE).
10. Separate linkage rod from latch handle.
11. Disconnect the power door switch, courtesy lamp electrical connectors.
12. Remove front door trim panel from vehicle.

Hope this helps and have an awesome day Roberta!
