Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor

CMP sensor detects camshaft angle at 180-degree intervals (4-cylinder) or 120-degree intervals (V6) and sends signal to PCM. Sensor also detects cylinder No. 1 TDC (4-cylinder) or No. 1 and No. 4 TDC (V6) and sends signal to PCM. For CMP sensor location, see CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR LOCATIONS  table. On MPV, CMP sensor pulses once per camshaft revolution.
