Replacing the crankshaft position sensor (cps, ckp) on my 01 Durango 4x4 with the 4.7 v8. May be the same with the 04-06 Durangos with the same 4.7 engine, may be similar to the 5.2 and 5.9 engines.

Link to sensor in description 👍
Thank you, this is the only video to show the location without flipping the camera around like you're stoned or tripping at a planetarium
😅
I appreciate this video, it shows the reality of back yard repair. Some things are just to much of a pain in the ass to do yourself when a mechanic with a hoist can do it in minutes.
Thank you Author good job.
Peter.
Thanks for showing the location. I have watched around 10 videos and non of them showed the location of the sensor.
Easiest way I’ve found on these Mopar trucks to get the crank sensor out the easiest and quickest when they’re all rusted over like yours was to heat the area on the block and work it out back and forth (the sensor housing is all plastic so heat only the block! But get it toasty around the sensor hole, that will slightly melt the outer plastic where the sensor is stuck). On another Durango that I changed wasn’t cooperating with the torch method, and I had to take a drill and run a drill bit through the sensor almost all the way ( keep the drill bit centered and level so it goes in straight) and then put a screw into the drilled out hole and keep screwing it inward, once it hits the hard steel ring gear that the sensor reads it will start pushing the sensor out without damage to the ring gear inside the block and no metal shavings to worry about. Hope these ideas can help you out or anyone one else having this issue.
That's awesome, wish I had thought of those methods.
Thank you for this. The hardest part for me was getting the wire harness disconnected but I finally got it and she's fixed! I had to go under as well and in the back yard as well. Thankfully she hasn't been too hard to work on. #durangolove
Thank you for the heads up.
Your approach was logical and thought-out and sometimes things happen sorry to see that happen to you.
Damn you were catching hell. I'm grateful you shared your experience because a lot of ppl think it's just turning wrenches and is a walk in the park.
I know, even though I still showed how to do it- all because I didn't pop mine out because there was no reason to bust it up and risk anything if mine didn't need replaced, which it didn't. It still runs great, still haven't replaced it. It was the cam sensor which I believe I mentioned in the video and did replace in another video. It's youtube- somebody is always talking shit; they expect perfection in every video. Thing is, everbody's opinion of perfection is different. Some complain about a certain part while others praise the exact same part. Literally impossible to please everyone one here, so there is always hate not matter what you do. People are too entitled to just keep their mouth shut and move on, they think the whole world needs to hear their opinion. If it weren't for the fact that I'm trying to make my channel my career, I would delete all forms of social media because the toxicity is sickening... except for the few fine people like yourself. Thank you for the support.
yep. inexperienced and unsure of your self people like myself need that experience and not to be interrupted by weird distractions from those staying warm in the house too. unless youre there cracking jokes, cheering you on, offering another approach. crap, sit in a chair and tell me how close i am to that beer when its done. nothing else though, please. if its not the mechanic's vehicle at least appreciate the free work. buy me gijoe toys. something.
@@BuckeyeBallistics My bad I don't often check my UA-cam notifications. But I know how it can be, don't let the negative comments get to you. I think your doing a fabulous. Not to mention I'm sure you helped a ton of people who just didn't or couldn't comment to let you know. Keep up the good work and don't give up!
I'm happy that you posted this.
Thanks for getting as far with removal as you did. That's how far I got too so, not stupid. Thanks for posting.
There are a few suggestions in the comments of how to get a stuck one out.
@@BuckeyeBallistics did it fixed ur dodge or no
I don't think you watched much of the video if you're asking that...
My Durangos' electric fan broke off and hit my clutch fan, long story short, my cooling system got obliterated.. I got everything installed, went to start, and it cranks with no spark... I pray it's not the timing chain. Thanks for the video, and BTW, guns and cars, two expensive hobbies 😁😁😁
Indeed
Great video, great patience! Thank you ~!
Awesome video man thanks. Hit that bolt with a quick wire brush to clean its head up and a 13 should fit nice and snug
Thanks for the video . Very helpful .
I just now got mine out!! I took some bailing wire, wrapped it behind the bolt bracket and then stuffed it down the end by where the block is behind the sensor down in the little crevice, twisted it on one side and then pulled it up around the other side and made sure that I was pulling it straight out instead of pulling at an angle and the thing popped out so fast it almost hit me in the face I hardly had to put any muscle behind it. Been messing with this thing for five hours.
Genius! Thanks for leaving the tip for others
@@BuckeyeBallistics I don’t know about genius lol but I’m glad I finally got it out but sad thing is they didn’t fix my truck putting the new one in. This thing won’t Rev past 2500 RPMs and it won’t start on its own without me putting the gas pedal all the way to the floor when trying to start it, then it will start up, so I guess I’ll start running back through this thing again once I got some time off work this next week. It’s a 2006 Dodge Durango and it’s been a good truck and I hardly drive it because I drive my service van for my locksmith business all the time. Just got done replacing the whole AC system and the day after I get it done everything’s running fine & this happens 🤦♂️
Well you got it out and I couldn't lol. What codes are you getting?
Mine was doing that and it was the pcv valve either stuck open or closed. Remove it, then shake it. If it doesn't rattle either clean or replace. Thanks for the wire tip on this sob😎
My go to backyard mechanic tapped out after 2 hours to, was trying to do it just now, he’s not one to give up either.
If you drill a small hole through the piece that's still in there and run some 14 gauge wire (I believe that's the gauge I used) through it wiggle and pull it will pop out pretty quick. I had the same problem seemed free wiggling but couldn't get a good grip on it, until I drilled it, and ran a wire through.
If I recall correctly, mine wouldn't even wiggle. I had thought after the video about drilling a small hole through it, and then drilling a drywall screw into the hole to use to pull it out.
@@BuckeyeBallistics macgyver!
I have a 2001 Durango 4x4 - exact same issue. I replaced the Camshaft Position Sensor, no problem. Crankshaft sensor won't budge. Would need to be drilled out. I'm sure that is what the shop will end up having to do.
Yeah probably. I still haven't changed mine lol, thankfully it was the cam sensor that I *was* able to get out.
Peace and love brother from New Mexico. I know how it goes😅
Brother. Thank you. You are absolutely amazing with your level of detail in your instructions. I will never knock someone down for not succeeding. You are great. I'm having the exact same issue with removing that fucking crankshaft sensor. I'm ready to burn it down and do an insurance claim. Just kidding. Seriously though, thank you for your video. Please keep up the great work.
There are a couple tips on how to get it out in the comments from others. Thankfully mine lasted until I scrapped it late last year because it was falling apart (Ohio rust), so I never did have to get it out lol. Appreciate the kind words.
Only change this when the engine is warm not hot not cold
Good video 👍
Thanks
This is the same as my 2006 Durango 4.7 & I’m havin a hell of a time gettin the sensor to pull out I got the bolt out but it will not come out
Bro thanx 4 shareing , i have watched so many videos and no1 has shown me where both sensors are in the same video n i couldnt find that fuker anywhere also i know urs is running but i was wondering if it did decide 2 go out would u b able 2 remove the oil pan and tap it out from the inside ? Sometimes tapping it in does alot 2 knock it loose as well
I'm not sure- I was wondering the same thing.
Just got mine out. After unplugging it I was able to use the tab to turn it and wiggle it out.
Nah youre not stupid man, i got the same problem with the rust, i am still trying to take mine off for 2 days, im tired ill try again another day, it kills my battery by the time it starts, so i need this thing out
that sucks
You aint stupid my guy, rust makes EVERYTHING a pain in the ass, not your fault. You have to remember there's a probably an o-ring that's fully dried up in between in there seized and locked in there too and you're technically trying to pull the part out the o-ring. It simply takes a while even for newer cars man just a PITA!
did u replace the freeze plug that caused this to happen
grip pliers did the job for me
I'm having the same issue, I was thinking vice grips
after twisting, which i know you said you couldnt do, i used a crowbar from the bottom and finally 20 minutes later, got it out..
Lucky...
Get on with it bro!
Probably your problem started when that freeze plug started losing fluid, causing water-antifreeze to get into the wiring, and also rusted that sensor in place. New sensor will probably fail as well, till you address the freeze plug problem.
It never failed lol, just scrapped the truck a few weeks ago with the original crank sensor still in it with 200,000 miles on it.
Could be loose torque converter bolts
It cannot be timing chain if it’s running well up to 3000 rpm.
how did you end up getting it out bc im have the same problem
The one I couldn't get out? I never did lol. Maybe if you run a screw into it then pull on the screw? That would probably work.
I would try tapping on it from the side with some type of hammer while shooting a lubricant on it and let it sit a few days in a row should get it np with some grips. Could also set up a pry action from below using the frame as a lever point.
Would one of those cause the entire driver side four out-of 8 banks to not fire?
I wouldn't think so, but I'm not really sure. You need to check the codes and see what it's saying...
Find a video that actually shows where the crankshaft position sensor is located. Thank you.
How much did they run you and where did you get them from
Ebay, Amazon, or Rock Auto- I buy far too many car parts to remember where 1 specifically came from. As for price they were somewhere between $40-$60 each.
Sounds like my luck with my Dodge.
Está claro que es trabajoso realizar el cambio de ése sensor
this looks like it sucks. my dodge dakota looks exactly like this. im watching your video to see what to expect. looks like you could have used a second set of eyes to joke with or offer advice too.
thank you for "dying" for us before we attempt our own. why Dodge? why?
again, thanks for your service.
Crap happens. Naw man thanx 4 the hustle.
cool
You wanted to see me shoot fireworks at it didn't you? Lol. One day when I have more land I want to blow up a car with fireworks. Maybe next year if I'm lucky...
Guns&Cars please don’t blow up a Durango or shoot it with fireworks lol I’ll take it I know your joking tho jaha
@@Aqua350Lt1 I'm not joking, but I wouldn't blow up the Durango. I would blow up something much crappier lol. Like a v6 durango! Bwah ha ha ha!
Guns&Cars 😂 😂 agreed
Mines stuck right now. Can't get it out either.
A few methods for removal were discussed in the comments. Good luck...
done mine two days ago by drilling two holes and using long needle nose pliers and twisting/pulling until it finally came out. its gonna take time but it will come out.
Heat it up
Just had this happen to me took it to supposed a good mechanic from the neighbor hood any how...... Pull up to the gas station putting thought maybe was low on gas so turned the truck off filled up with gas went to kick it over wouldn't start my buddy happen to work at shop so .... He put it on the computer came up the code to the cam sensor long story long returned back at end of week buddy's boss comes out shaking his head now mind you this is my family mobile have no other car have 3 kids tells me he don't want to break the sensor he will put some heat to it it was swollen he didn't want it to break return 4 days later comes out shaking his head saying it's done he got the sensor out put the new one it tried firing it up so wouldn't fire or it back on computer still giving the same code wont start moral to story he says it's time to junk it he thinks the chain jumped a tooth I didn't sell the truck and an getting ready to junk it any day before I do that does this sound right anyone with any knowledge with please any in put before I junk it does this sound right mins you the truck started ran down the street to the gas station started to putt out turned it off to never turn back on again anyone????
Well as I said in the video, I replaced the cam sensor first (video posted, see Durango playlist) and it fixed mine- but this is the video for the CRANK sensor. You say he replaced the cam sensor for a cam sensor code, yet you are on a video talking about and attempting to replace the CRANK sensor. So which one did he actually replace? I can't remember what exact code I had, but if I didn't mention it in this video, then I definately did in the other. Because if it was specifically a cam sensor code, then he should have been replacing the cam sensor no? But the way you talk and the fact that you are watching this video makes me think you are saying he replaced the crank sensor even though you said cam. Again I don't know what code you had and can't remember what my code was without watching the videos, but it was something that led me to believe it could be either sensor and I just got lucky that it was the cam sensor and not the crank sensor in this video.
As for whether the truck is done for, if the timing chain only skipped 1 or 2 teeth it's probably ok and just needs the timing chain fixed. But if it skipped several teeth or if the chain broke completely, then yes the engine is probably ruined. The timing chain skipping does not mean you should automatically scrap it though, because again it depends on how bad it skipped. He should be able to see if there is damage with a bore scope down the cylinders to see if the valves hit the pistons. You might want to get a second opinion if you don't want to scrap it, but replacing the timing chain will be costly even if that IS an option...
Doing this repair right now. These are a BITCH to get out
Good luck brother...

Again, go troll someplace else you’re not helpful and I doubt you’re any expert on safety of automobiles.
Does it even matter when they are all made in China,🤨
Sadly yes. I have bought cheap wheel bearings that didn't last a year, alternators that didn't last a year, batterys that didn't last 90 days, and crank and cam sensors that didn't last 1 month. The cheap stuff is always a gamble when it comes to these components, and I have lost more than I've won when gambling- and I hate having to fix stuff twice. Buy once, cry once.

Go troll somewhere else. You’re not helpful depending on the cars here in the United States. He could be in a snowbelt area that throws salt on the road he got it out so I don’t know what your squawking about.
