I have been told that I have a faulty crank angle sensor which often keeps the engine from starting.
Where is the crank angle sensor located?

Is the sensor you are referring to on the transaxle the Cam Position Sensor or the CRANK ANGLE SENSOR.
I need the crank angle sensor which effects the starting of this vehicle.

MartyandDanny, BMRFIXIT was correct. Your crank angle sensor is mounted on the transmission bellhousing, specifically, on the rear near the top. Most easily seen from under the car.

Once again - thanks -
I had another person try and say that possibly it was the other sensor.
Thanks for the description - it will now be easier and yes - it will be replaced.
