need some help please

yesterday I started getting CEL codes p0300 and p0315. I checked out what those codes mean and p0300 is random misfire and p0315 is a crank position code. I am wondering if all I need is a new crank position sensor or if there is something else. Also, does anyone know where a "how to" is for replacing said sensor? Thanks in advance.

Wow no help at all huh!?!? Anyway, I figured it out. It is the crankshaft position sensor and all you have to do is remove the starter to gain access to the sensor. There is only one bolt holding the sensor in. Thanks for nothing ev1 except for tunamelt who atleast tried to help with a bump.

I have a trifecta tune but I've had it for while with no prior issues so I am sure it's the CKP sensor. And yea after I install the new sensor, I have to have it relearned.
