### Removal Procedure

1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Remove the serpentine drive belt from the crankshaft pulley. Refer to Drive Belt Replacement in Engine Mechanical.
3. Raise the vehicle on hoist. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.
4. Remove the right front Tire and Wheel assembly. Refer to Tire and Wheel Removal and Installation in Tires and Wheels.
5. Remove the right front engine splash shield. Refer to Engine Splash Shield Replacement in Body Front End.
6. Remove the crankshaft harmonic balancer. Refer to Crankshaft Balancer Removal in Engine Mechanical.
7. Note the routing of sensor harness before removal.
8. Remove the harness retaining clip with bolt (1).
9. Disconnect the sensor electrical connector.
10. Remove the sensor bolts (2).
11. Remove the sensor.

### Installation Procedure

1. Install the 24X crankshaft position sensor with the bolts (2) and route the harness as noted during removal.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

2. Install the harness retaining clip with the bolt (1).

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 10 N·m (8 lb ft).

3. Connect the sensor electrical connector.
4. Reinstall the balancer on the crankshaft. Refer to Crankshaft Balancer Installation in Engine Mechanical.
5. Lower the vehicle.
6. Reinstall the serpentine drive belt. Refer to Drive Belt Replacement in Engine Mechanical.
