CAUTION:

The magnetic timing wheels (1) must not come in contact with magnets (pickup tools, trays, etc.) or any other strong magnetic field. This will destroy the timing wheels ability to correctly relay camshaft position to the camshaft position sensor.

The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensors are located at the rear of the cylinder head covers and are bolted to the cylinder head.

Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
If removing the LH CMP sensor, first remove the air inlet hose and upper intake manifold. Refer to MANIFOLD, INTAKE, REMOVAL .

NOTE:
The RH CMP sensor is shown, the LH CMP sensor is similar. If removing both RH and LH CMP sensors, mark the sensors so they can be installed in their original locations.
Disconnect the wire harness connector (1) from the CMP sensor.
Loosen the sensor mounting bolt (2).
Pull the sensor with the mounting bolt from the cylinder head cover.
