This sensor basically keeps track of where the camshaft is rotating. It’s an electronic part, and it sends a signal to the engine's computer – we call that the ECU, Engine Control Unit – telling it exactly which position each of the engine’s valves are in. It’s measuring rotation and then translating that into data the computer can understand. It works alongside the crankshaft position sensor, giving the ECU a complete picture of what’s going on inside the engine. Think of it as a key piece in the timing puzzle. The ECU needs to know where the camshaft is to accurately time things like fuel injection and ignition. It ensures the fuel is sprayed into the cylinder at precisely the right moment and the spark plug fires when it should. It's absolutely critical for the engine to run smoothly and efficiently. It's one of those parts that doesn’t get a lot of attention until it goes bad, but it's working constantly. If this sensor fails, things get messy. You’ll likely notice if it’s going bad before the engine completely dies. Common symptoms include a rough idle, stalling, a check engine light (of course), decreased fuel economy, and sometimes even a complete refusal to start. Basically, without accurate camshaft position information, the engine can't run properly. It’s a fairly inexpensive part, thankfully, and you can find replacements easily enough – Fixparts Online has a good selection. Ignoring a failing sensor can lead to more serious damage down the road, because the engine won't be running as it's supposed to. It acts like a shield protecting your engine from running incorrectly. It’s definitely one of those parts worth keeping an eye on, or replacing proactively if you suspect trouble. Worry-free driving: Camshaft Position Sensor (MPN ADB117221) is backed by a 12-month warranty!
