Where is the crankshaft sensor on a 1992 dodge ram 150 truck?

The crankshaft position sensor (CKP) on a 1992 Dodge Ram 150 is located on the passenger side of the engine block, near the bellhousing (where the transmission connects to the engine). It's usually fairly close to the crankshaft itself.

However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the engine (e.g., 3.9L, 5.2L, 5.9L). To be certain, you should:

* Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton manual specific to your year and engine will have diagrams and precise locations.

* Use a parts diagram: Many online auto parts stores (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) let you select your vehicle and see diagrams of the engine. Look for the CKP sensor in those diagrams.

Keep in mind that accessing the sensor might require removing some other components. Always disconnect the negative battery terminal before working on any engine components.
