Where is the crankshaft position sensor on a 2002 Oldsmobile bravada?

The crankshaft position sensor (CKP) on a 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada is located on the passenger side of the engine, near the front of the oil pan. It's usually mounted to the engine block and points towards the crankshaft pulley. However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the specific engine (likely a 4.2L or 4.3L V6).

To be absolutely certain:

* Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton repair manual specific to your 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada will have diagrams showing the exact location of the CKP sensor. This is the most reliable method.

* Use an online parts diagram: Many auto parts websites (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) allow you to select your vehicle's year, make, and model, and then view diagrams of the engine components. Look for a diagram specifically of the engine's bottom end or the oil pan area.

Because of the potential for variation and the need for precise location for repair, relying on a visual diagram from a reliable source is strongly recommended before attempting any work on your vehicle.
