My saturn shows fault code p0341. Camshaft position sensor. Where is it located? How hard to change?

Your car doesn't have a cam sensor. When you get that code in your car, it usually means you have a misfire problem so look at the plugs and wires first.

Just to add to this one the most common causes of a code P0341 on that car is black carbon build up on the spark plugs and wire ends wire they meet the plug. Also inspect the coil towers where the plug wires go they get a white corroded coating on them damaging the coil towers. Most of the time there is no feel of a miss fire when you have that code on that car.
