What is the purpose and location of the camshaft position sensor?

The camshaft position (CMP) sensor, located near the crankshaft pulley on 7.3L diesel models or on the cylinder head on gasoline models, determines cylinder position for ignition and fuel injection signals. On 6.0L and 6.4L diesel models, it's behind the power steering pump. To remove, ensure the ignition key is off, disconnect the electrical connector, and remove the bolt and sensor. Installation is the reverse of removal. For 7.3L diesel models, raise the vehicle, support it on jackstands, remove the bolt and sensor. Installation is the reverse of removal.
