Crankshaft position sensor location on the 2.0 turbo?

[tcarpenter87]

Anyone know where this sensor
Is located? I cannot find it to save my life. Which is pretty distressing since it shouldn’t be that difficult to find. Help please!

Looks like it’s behind the starter.

Thanks. Like the starter needs to be removed to access it? Any chance you have a diagram?

Remove the starter first.

Then proceed with the sensor R&R below.

So you have to remove the generator, right side engine mount, and starter to replace the CKP. Nice.

They had to balance out the fact that the 3.6 guys have to pull the intake to do plugs.

Thanks to all you who responded. Jeep is down and I’m hoping this gets me back on the trails!

Lovely. I’ve got to do this to the wife’s JLU. What a pain. Not only a battery replacement but also got P000A CEL code, so I gotta replace the sensor as well. Is there only one, or are there 2?

--EDIT--

Don't want to jinx myself, but I may not need to change it. May have been the result of a dying, low voltage battery. We will see...

On certain Nissan Altimas, they want you to pull the subframe to change that sensor. If you have a wide assortment of tools and used to working blind, then you can get it done without removing the subframe.

Thing is, the oil filter housing starts to leak when you need that plug change. So, kill two birds with one stone.
