Where is the crankshaft sensor on a grand Cherokee Laredo with 4 L engine?

The location of the crankshaft position sensor (CKP sensor) on a Grand Cherokee Laredo with a 4.0L engine (likely a straight-6) varies slightly depending on the year. However, it's generally located on the bottom of the engine block, near the front of the oil pan, and often close to the flywheel or flexplate.

To be certain, you'll need to consult a repair manual specific to your Grand Cherokee's year and model. A Haynes or Chilton manual would be helpful, or you can find diagrams online if you search for "[Your Year] Grand Cherokee 4.0L Crankshaft Position Sensor Location". Using the year will give you much more accurate results.

Important Safety Note: Working on your vehicle's engine can be dangerous. Always disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting any work, and be aware of hot surfaces and moving parts. If you're not comfortable performing this task yourself, it's best to take your vehicle to a qualified mechanic.
