Where is the crank position sensor?

[theross86]

Apparently my crank position sensor is bad. Where would I find it on an 03 V8? Am I going to need to lift it up to get to it? Also, would this and my misfires be related? Thanks a bunch.

Here it is.

It's really easy to get to. That's the back of the engine where it meets the transmission.

You can get to it pretty easily if you drive the front two wheels up on a set of ramps.

You the man. Thanks . This other site i went to said it was in the front. Thanks. Mine keeps giving me different codes on my C.O.P system. Which Manufacturer do you suggest? Delphi , FoMoCo .. .. ..

Aren't you the one with the super special radio? (would love to see a video of that.)
What codes are you getting? It's far more likely that you have several marginal COPs than a bad crank sensor. Either way, Motorcraft for the COPs and for the crank sensor.

Yes , I am the one. I found the back up sensor button by the P/Moonroof switch , but ever since i pushed it to see if it worked , The back up sensors do not work anymore. When i put it in R , the light comes on on the button but it does not work no matter how many times you push the button.

Sounds like a fault with the parking aid system.
