The cam sensor is in the distributor. The crank sensor goes through the top of the bell housing. On the driver side on a 4.0L, pass side on a 5.2L
The cps could be a cam or crank sensor. The cam sensor is inside the distributor. The crank sensor mounts through the top of the bell housing, pointing at the flywheel.

I am having the same problem with my 93 jeep cherokee. it can hardly get out of its own way! i just recently rebuilt my motor and transmission. i replaced the cps ( crankshaft position sensor) and it made a noticeable difference, but still hasn't fixed the problem completely! I need help!
11: No crank signal to computer. Fault in wiring between crankshaft position sensor (CPS) and ECM ( PCM or computer ) or faulty CPS.12: Battery disconnected. Battery or power to the ECM disconnected in the last 50 key cycles.66: TCM to PCM failure. No message from the Transmission Control Module (TCM) to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)

I have found the best way to change this sensor on the 318cid model is from the top. I removed the transmission crossmember and jacked the transmission all the way up to gain more space behind the engine. You will find the sensor on the right side, follow the 3 wire harness and unplug it. Then using a couple of extentions and swivels you can reach behind to feel the bolts and guide the socket on to the bolts. I could not see the bolts at all it was done by feel. Remove the bolts and sensor, then reverse this procedure.
Timing on the 1990 4.0L / inline 6-cylinder engines are set & locked at factory and can only be changed by modifying parts... and modifying the parts is a BAD idea since you are masking a problem rather than solving it. You'll end up with a worse issue when you are done.If you do have a timing issue it is either a stretched timing chain or sensor related.Timing is controlled by the computer and is not adjustable. Computer timing is determined by finding TDC (top dead center) with the CKS (Crankshaft position sensor) and CPS (camshaft position sensor) but when either goes out you will generally have an engine that stalls intermittently or a 'no-start' condition.If you are having trouble diagnosing the issues you can use the diagnostic help at:http://www.lunghd.com/Tech_Articles/Engine/Basic_Sensors_Diagnostics.htm
It is above the starter. You must remove the started to get at the CPS. There is one bolt that holds the CPS in the block.
On the '89 it's on the top left side of the transmission bell housing.
The most common reason for the XJ Cherokee to turn over and not start running is a faulty Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS) on the transmission bell housing. Search the Internet or some of the Jeep specific forums, there are instructions for testing the CPS.
The cam position sensor is in the distributor. on both engines. The crank postion sensor goes through the top left of the bell housing on the 4.0L and the top right on the V8.
The camshaft position sensor is inside the distributor. The crankshaft position sensor is in the top of the bell housing on the driver side.

The Crankshaft Position Sensor is attached to the bellhousing.The CPS detects teeth on the flyweel as thay pass the sensor during engine operation and thus provides the computer with info concerning engine speed and crankshaft angle. Hope this helps.
My 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee was doing the exact same thing. The dealership told me the crank sensor had shorted out and caused all of the problems. They replaced it and I am back in business!!! I agree, mine was giving "NO BUS" error on the odometer and the CPS (Crank Position Sensor) was the culprit. Located on the rear of the top lip of the transmission, above the opening for the flywheel. I replaced mine myself, HUGE PAIN....so, I'd recommend having it done...
Absolutely! And the bad news is that they are extremely tuff to get to.I heard lots of extention on a ratchet works. It's located high up on driver side of bell housing.
No, as this engine has been built since 1964.
AnswerIts most likely to be the Crank Position Sensor (CPS) failing.
The CPS is locted on the transmission bell housing top drivers side. Look down from drivers side at rear of motor by the fire wall... you will see the wire conector going to the top of the drivers side of the transmission. GL.Answerthe cps is located on the bottom side of the engine under the manifold Answerits mounted on the tranny
