Crankshaft position sensor replacement instructions please?

Thank you very much for your answer. But I just found out that Nissan has a recall for that senser. The location heats up the senser and the check engine light goes on. The recall was on 8/28/06.

I need to find our about where is crankshaft sender locked

Unable to locate crank ignition sensor on a 1994 Nissan Altima.

Four cylinder front wheel drive automatic.

I need to replace the crankshaft position sensor on my car. I cannot find it to save my life. My Haynes manual shows it on the front of the transmission right below the distributor. Not there! Someone else told me to follow the wire coming out of the front of the distributor. That wire is bundled together with about four other wires. Can anybody just tell me exactly where to find this sensor?

That is exactly where the manual told me to look. I just did not believe them. Thanks for the help, the site is the best.

I am having a similar issue. The parts house sold me a crank sensor but your diagram shows it in the distributor, but I have seen a different diagram showing the cam sensor is in the distributor and that is what the parts house is telling me too. But I am like this guy I could not find it where it is supposed to be.

Is this where it is on a 2000 altima gle 4 cyl? I was told the camshaft sensor is in the distibutor but are the crank and cam sensor the same on this vehicle? Very confusing reading up on this.

Finally some real help, thanks so much. I've been researching for days and couldn't get a straight answer anywhere. Much appreciated my friend.
