Hi,

The camshaft position sensor is located at the front of the engine. When you open the hood and are standing at the front of the vehicle, it will be on your left.

I attached pics below to help. The first two help locate the sensor. Pic three are the very vague directions for replacement.

Here is a link you may find more helpful:

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,

Joe
