    I have spent weeks searching and found nothing on how to replace this sensor or the location. from what I can see from the underside there is a great deal of stuff that needs to be removed for the sensor to come out. everything I could find was for the 6 not the 4. does anyone have a picture of its location?

    that information is not correct I have found the sensor now. its behind the ac compressor. it looks like I will have to remove the compressor to get the sensor out.

    crankshaft.jpg this is the sensor right here. I am going to have to move that compressor out of the way maybe I can just unbolt it and wiggle it around to clear the sensor out.

    I just checked the service manual and it says the same Ac Compressor and bracket needs to be moved for access.
