The crankshaft position sensor on a 1987 Chevrolet Celebrity is on the side of the engine nearest the firewall. I need to know which engine to give a more specific answer.
A CKP is the crankshaft position sensor. The engine computer uses that sensor to know the position of the crankshaft for fuel and ignition timing purposes. With out the ckp the engine will not run.
ohm test it.
I really need to know how to tell if i have a loose crankshaft or crankshaft position sensor. Or could it be the timing belt . We just put in a new water pump but the timing belt was on TDC when we were done. PLEASE HELP !!!! Its running pretty crappy...
if your crank position sensor is bad you car or truck will not start because you will not have spark
Most likely by crankshaft pulley, unplug connector and remove sensor, replace sensor with new one (if you don't know what it looks like in engine; buy new part so you have reference). Plug in, clear codes & test drive.

need to know the location of the crankshaft sensor on a 2003 ford escape
I didn't know a crank had a sensor,but most sensors are tied into manifold and top of bell house NEW ANSWER: It is behind the starter.
In older cars that used a distributor, the distributor shaft was connected to the camshaft. The camshaft was connected to the crankshaft. So as they all turned, the spark would fire in direct correlation to the crankshaft. Once they eliminated the distributor, the computer needed a way to determine when to fire the spark. So they place a sensor near the end of the crankshaft and it reports the crankshaft position to the computer. So the computer can know when to fire the spark for each cylinder.
