The crankshaft sensor is located one the front left of transaxle where it reads the flywheel. The sensor is a black plastic device held in place by a 10 mm bolt. It has 2 wires and a ground that come from a harness that also spilts off to the distributor. Not sure, but the Sentra should have something similar.
