CAM ANGLE SENSOR

This hall effect sensor is fitted on the cylinder head and faces the camshaft drive pulley (exhaust). On the latter there is an aperture which allows the timing sensor to signal the engine timing position. The injection control unit uses the timing sensor signal to detect the T.D.C. at the end of compression.
