Autozone carries this type of sensor, runs around $15
AnswerIt is located behind the engine near the firewall. It's a bit tricky to get to it, you would need to rotate the engine forward. Then look under the exhaust manifold under the cylider closest to the drivers side. 10 mm deepsocket for the bolt.That's fine but I want to where it is on a 1996 Olds. Cutlass supreme.

It takes a special gauge to install the crank sensor. It can be rented from some parts stores.
It is behind the harmonic balancer.
Behind the harmonic balancer (dampner) that is located behind the crankshaft pulley.
It's on the back of the engine....and hell to get to. Better off taking to a garage. I just broke mine off. Now I have to drop the oil pan and drive it back out.
Check the crank sensor

The 1995 Oldsmobile Aurora 4.0 liter engine crank sensor is located on the back of the crank. You will need to remove the rear engine cover in order to view the crank sensor.
i had same problem on my 94 cutlass supreme...long story short, it was the ignition switch. $300. at shop.
What size engine is it?? An internet search of the specific engine's crank sensor location might give you the answer. It's on the back side (transverse mount) on the lower part of the block on the 2.8L/3.1L/3.4L engine. That's as good of a place as any to start looking on other engines.
