Where is the crank position sensor located on a 2000 Chevy Silverado pick up?

On a 2000 Chevy Silverado, the crank position sensor (CKP) is typically located on the passenger side of the engine block, near the crankshaft pulley. However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the engine (4.3L, 4.8L, 5.3L, 5.7L, 6.0L, etc.).

To be certain, you should:

* Consult your owner's manual: This is the best source for your specific vehicle.

* Use a repair manual specific to your year and engine: Chilton's or Haynes manuals often have diagrams showing sensor locations.

* Use an online parts diagram: Many auto parts websites (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) allow you to select your year, make, model, and engine to see parts diagrams.

Looking at a parts diagram will give you the most precise location. Remember to be careful when working near the engine, and always disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting any work.
