4.7L V-8
The CMP sensor on the 4.7L engine contains a hall effect device called a sync signal generator to generate a fuel sync signal. This sync signal generator detects notches located on a tone wheel. The tone wheel (4) is located at the front of the camshaft for the right cylinder head (2). As the tone wheel rotates, the notches (1) pass through the sync signal generator. The pattern of the notches (viewed counterclockwise from front of engine) is: 1 notch, 2 notches, 3 notches, 3 notches, 2 notches 1 notch, 3 notches and 1 notch. The signal from the CMP sensor is used in conjunction with the crankshaft position sensor to differentiate between fuel injection and spark events. It is also used to synchronize the fuel injectors with their respective cylinders.
