* Near the crankshaft pulley: This is the most common location. The sensor is mounted on the engine block or transmission housing, and points towards the crankshaft pulley's teeth or reluctor ring.
* On the transmission bellhousing: Sometimes, especially in front-wheel drive vehicles, it's located on the transmission bellhousing, close to the crankshaft.
* Integrated into the distributor (older vehicles): In older vehicles with distributors, the CKP sensor might be integrated into the distributor itself. This is less common in modern vehicles.
To find the exact location in *your* vehicle, you should consult your vehicle's repair manual or a reliable online resource that provides diagrams for your specific make, model, and year. Searching online using "[Your Vehicle Year, Make, Model] Crankshaft Position Sensor Location" will likely yield helpful results, including diagrams and images.
