2003 chevy silverado crankshaft position sensor location

Step 12 Remove Bolt on Crankshaft Position Sensor The sensor is located between the engine and the transmission near the front driver's side wheel.

If the crankshaft position sensor or its wiring have any issues, it can cause the crankshaft signal to be cut off while the engine is running, which can cause the engine to stall. This is usually a sign of a wiring problem.

Acceleration Problems As the engine speeds up, there needs to be adjustments to spark timing and fuel injection. Without accurate input from the crankshaft sensor, the engine control unit (ECU) can't make these adjustments as well as it should. This can result in slow or uneven acceleration.
