Where is the crank shaft sensor located on a 1999 Pontiac Bonneville?

On a 1999 Pontiac Bonneville, the crankshaft position sensor (CKP sensor) is typically located on the passenger side (right side) of the engine block, near the front of the engine, below the crankshaft pulley. However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the engine (3.8L V6 or 3.1L V6).

To be certain, you should:

* Consult your vehicle's repair manual: This is the most reliable source for the precise location.

* Use a repair manual diagram: Many online resources, like Haynes or Chilton manuals, offer diagrams showing sensor locations.

* Search online for a diagram specific to your Bonneville's engine: Search using terms like "1999 Pontiac Bonneville [3.8L or 3.1L] crankshaft position sensor location diagram".

Visually inspecting the area described above with a diagram in hand will greatly increase your chances of finding it. Remember to be careful when working around engine components.
