Location of crankshaft position sensor on 3.5 Oldsmobile?

The location of the crankshaft position sensor (CKP) on a 3.5L Oldsmobile engine varies slightly depending on the exact year and model. However, it's generally found on the passenger side (right side) of the engine block, near the front of the engine, close to the crankshaft pulley.

To be absolutely certain, you should:

* Consult your vehicle's repair manual: This will provide the most accurate and detailed information specific to your year and model.

* Use a reliable online parts diagram: Websites like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, or Napa Auto Parts allow you to select your vehicle's year, make, and model to view a parts diagram showing the CKP sensor's location.

Looking at diagrams or the engine itself, you'll likely see a sensor with a single-wire connector, often mounted in a small bracket. It will be positioned to read the crankshaft's rotational position via a reluctor wheel (a toothed wheel on the crankshaft).
