I am having to replace the crank sensor on my 2000 Mazda MPV minivan......I need to know where it is located and HOW do I get to it? I read somewhere that I need to remove the driver's side front tire and the black shield, and I can get right to it, that it is located on the crankshaft pulley....Is this true? Please let me know, thanks

 

on timing chain cover towards front of van passengers side

 

THANKS!! I DID find it!! YAY
I am so glad you replied ! Thanks again,

 

Sorry I didn't see this thread sooner, HOWES. I was just about to suggest the same thing.

Glad you were able to find and get at it!! Good Job!!
