Camshaft Position Sensor

Camshaft Position Sensors, found within the Engine Electronics section of Engine Parts, are critical components in modern vehicle engine management systems. These sensors monitor the position and speed of the camshaft, providing essential data to the engine control unit (ECU) for precise control of fuel injection and ignition timing. Accurate camshaft position sensing ensures optimal engine performance, fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions. Typically located near the camshaft or cylinder head, these sensors utilize Hall-effect or inductive technology to generate a signal corresponding to camshaft rotation. Examples in our catalog include Febi sensors like FEBI35143 and FEBI180719, as well as OEM sensors for BMW, Mercedes-Benz Trucks, and MAN (MPN 81473016067). Replacing a faulty camshaft position sensor is often necessary to resolve engine misfires, rough idling, or difficulty starting.
