Default Crank Sensor

Do any of you have the location or tell me the difficulty on changing a crank sensor on a 2005 Dodge Cummings?

Thanks.

Im assuming this is on a 5.9,if not disregaurd this.

According to the Haynes manual it is located on the front left side of the engine down next to the harmonic balancer.Just unplug the wire harness and remove the mounting bolt and replace.May have to rock it back and forth to remove and reinstall.Looks like a easy job.Cant imagine it takeing over 15 minutes or so.

Super easy to do.

I think it's a 10mm bolt, just look at the driver's side bottom front of the engine and it's the thing with wires coming out of it. If you've got the new one already, it'd be pretty darned hard to mess up.
