Camshaft Position Sensor: Service and Repair
Camshaft Position Sensor Location
REMOVAL
1. Disconnect cam reference sensor lead at wiring harness connector.
2. Loosen cam timing sensor retaining bolt. Loosen enough to allow slot in sensor to slide past bolt.
3. Pull sensor up and out of the chain case cover. Removal force will be high due to O-ring seal on sensor. A light tap to the top of the sensor prior to
removal may reduce the removal force.
INSTALLATION
1. If the removed sensor is to be reinstalled clean off the old spacer on the sensor face. A new spacer must be attached to the face before
installing. Inspect O-ring for damage, replace if necessary. If the sensor is being replaced, confirm that the paper spacer is attached to the face and
the O-ring is positioned in the grove of the new sensor.
2. Apply a couple drops of oil to the O-ring prior to installing. Install sensor in the chain case cover and push sensor down until contact is made with
the cam timing gear. Hold in this position and tighten the retaining bolt to 105 lb.in.(11.9 Nm).
3. Connect cam reference sensor lead wire at wiring harness connector. Position the lead wire in a fashion to keep it away from the accessory belt.
