Camshaft Position Sensor (4.7L)

Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor is mounted on right front corner of right cylinder head. The CMP sensor is made up of a Hall Effect switch (sync signal generator). The sync signal generator detects notches located on a tonewheel. The tonewheel is located on front of camshaft for right cylinder head. As the tonewheel rotates, the notches pass through the sync signal generator. Signal is used in conjunction with the crankshaft position sensor to differentiate between fuel injection and spark events
