Crank Position Sensor

[wallgar]

Can anyone tell me where the "Crank Position Sensor" is located on a 2008 Jeep Liberty?
I am trying to solve an intermittent starting problem.
Thanks,
Gary

Hi

Got this job to do myself and the picture looks just what I am looking for. Can you just confirm that's for the 2.8l crd engine.
Been trying to find a workshop manual but all I can find is in SVG format and will not work now internet explorer is no longer useable.
Thanks
Colin
