I don't know where it's located so I can fix it. Can i do the job myself? or do I have to take it to a professional?

Good morning,

I attached the location of all 3 engines' crankshaft position sensors. You never told us the engine size. Please provide the engine size so I can attach the procedure and give you an idea of how difficult it is to replace the sensor.

Thank you.

I attached the procedure for you to view. It can be done at home but you will need jack stands, power tools for removing bolts and assorted hand tools.

I would plan on about 5-6 hours of work.
