Camshaft Sensor Location

On the 3.0L engine, there are two cam sensors, one in front of each cylinder head. For the 2.5L engine, the cam sensor is in rear of cylinder head.

Here is a guide to walk you through the problem of having camshaft codes, most of the time it is not the sensor.

Thanks. I replaced it yesterday. I wish all sensors were that easy.

Good to hear, did it fix the issue?

Yes it’s still a little bit. But I know that the computer has to recalibrate. So I have to drive it more.

Yep, that makes sense.
