V6 3.5 2002 Nissan Altima crank shaft censor located bank 2

crank shaft sensor transaxle bell housing. oxygen sensor located in the exhaust manifold.

there is only one crankshaft sensor so you will be looking for a CAM shaft sensor for it to be on bank 2
go google and type in --location of cam shaft sensors on nissan altima engine ---

There is one crank sensor and it is: 1) Looking at the front of the car it is on the back side of the engine. 2) Just behind where the flywheel is located.

Bank two is towards the Radiator. You should check with a nissan dealership. call them up and give them your Vin # and have them run it for any recalls. There is a old recall that Nissan will replace both cam sensors for free if your car falls under the Vin range.

bank two is the bank of cylinders that is closer to the radiator...not the firewall side.

Crank sensor is right behind your harmonic balancer (3 or 4 pin connector). You cam sensor is in your distributor under your rotor...

The crank sensor is on the back side of the engine next to the firewall. Not sure if this car has speed sensor.

1st, Nissan had a recall on Crank position sensors for 2002-2006 Altima's. Check with you dealer before you go doing any repairs. You may discover you can get your car repaired at no charge.
NHTSA Campaign ID number :O7V527000
Symptom: Erratic behavior. Stalling and no starts and very difficult to diagnose due to the time frame in which the component actually malfunctions. The warranty should not be limited to the original owner.
I would also need more specifics as to which engine you have so I might assist you in where the location of the sensor is. The Altima had a 4 and a 6 cyl engine offered that year.

I believe if memory serves me right its on gear box housing , in slightly different areas depending on gearbox
