Caution: To avoid any vehicle damage, serious personal injury or death when major components are removed from the vehicle and the vehicle is supported by a hoist, support the vehicle with jack stands at the opposite end from which the components are being removed and strap the vehicle to the hoist.

Remove the crankshaft sensor electrical connector. For specific CKP sensor identification, refer to

CKP B, CKP A, Engine Oil Pressure Switch, and Engine Oil Level Switch

Important: Inspect the crankshaft sensor o-ring for wear or damage. If a problem is found, replace the o-ring.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Important: Be sure to fully seat the CKP sensor into the engine block. Failure to fully seat the CKP sensor may cause a CKP sensor DTC to set.

Tighten
Tighten the retaining bolt between 8-11N·m (70-100 lb in).
