Where is the crankshaft sensor on a 1997 Dodge Caravan?

The crankshaft position sensor (CKP sensor) on a 1997 Dodge Caravan is located on the passenger side of the engine, near the crankshaft pulley. It's usually mounted to the engine block itself. It's a small sensor with a single wire connector.

However, precise location can vary slightly depending on the engine (3.0L, 3.3L, or 3.8L). You'll need to consult a repair manual specific to your Caravan's engine for the most accurate placement. A picture diagram in a repair manual will be invaluable.

Searching online for "[Your Caravan's engine size] 1997 Dodge Caravan crankshaft sensor location" along with a visual search (images) will also likely yield helpful results. Be sure to double-check the images match your engine.
