The location of the crankshaft position sensor varies among different models of the 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander, but it is always situated close to the crankshaft itself. If you need to replace this sensor, expect to pay between $190 and $300 for the part, along with an additional $200 for installation labor. This sensor is responsible for ensuring the crankshaft spins at the right speed. If the sensor malfunctions, you may experience problems like stalling, shaking, rough acceleration, and the check engine light appearing. These issues occur because the engine's timing is off and misfiring. Along with the immediate concerns, engine strain can build up over time, potentially leading to more extensive damage and expenses.
