Default Crankshaft Positioning Sensor

Can anyone tell me where to find the CPS on a 2000 Dakota with a 4.7 magnum engine? Thanks in advance to whoever knows this!

Your looking for a replacement sensor at a store?
Or the location on the engine?

I will move this to the 2nd generation Dakota sub-forum.

Any codes?

Turn the key on, don't start it. Then off, on again, off, then leave it on. It will display any codes in the odometer window.
