A system for determining positions of a sand control service tool includes a wash pipe positioned below the sand control service tool. The system further includes a sensor attached to the wash pipe. The system also includes one or more magnets attached to downhole completion equipment. The sensor is configured to generate position indicator information that indicates whether the one or more magnets are within a threshold distance from the sensor. A crossover port of the sand control service tool is positioned above a sand control packer when the one or more magnets are within the threshold distance from the sensor.
