Where is the crankshaft sensor on a 2000 dodge caravan 2.4?

The crankshaft position sensor (CKP sensor) on a 2000 Dodge Caravan with the 2.4L engine is located on the passenger side of the engine block, near the bottom of the engine, and relatively close to the crankshaft pulley. It's often tucked in a somewhat difficult-to-reach spot. You'll likely need a socket and possibly a wrench or ratchet extension to get to it.

Because of the location and potential for interference, a shop manual or online diagrams specific to your year and engine are highly recommended to pinpoint the exact location visually before you start your search. Searching for "2000 Dodge Caravan 2.4L crankshaft position sensor location" on image search engines (like Google Images or Bing Images) might yield helpful pictures.

Caution: Be careful working around the engine. Hot surfaces, belts, and other moving parts pose risks. Always disconnect the negative battery terminal before working on any sensor.
