Description
Function of the Camshaft Position Sensor
The camshaft position sensor (CMP) is critical for engine performance. It monitors the rotation and position of the camshaft and communicates this information to the engine control unit (ECU). This allows precise control of fuel injection timing, ignition timing, and engine efficiency, ensuring smooth operation and preventing misfires. A faulty camshaft sensor causes rough idling, poor acceleration, increased fuel consumption, engine stalling, and a check engine light.
