Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator System
The camshaft position (CMP) actuator system is an electro-hydraulic operated device used for a variety of engine performance and operational enhancements. These enhancements include lower emission output through exhaust gas dilution of the intake charge in the combustion chamber, a broader engine torque range, and improved fuel economy. The CMP actuator system accomplishes this by changing the angle or timing of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft position. The CMP actuator simply allows earlier or later intake and exhaust valve opening during the four stroke engine cycle. The CMP actuator cannot vary the duration of valve opening, or the valve lift.
During engine OFF, engine idling conditions, and engine shutdown, the camshaft actuator is held in the Park position. Internal to the CMP actuator assembly is a return spring and a locking pin. During non-phasing modes of the camshaft, the return spring rotates the camshaft back to the Park position, and the locking pin retains the CMP actuator sprocket to the camshaft

camshaft position sensor location on the V6 engine located at the front of the engine block below the power steering pump. the 4 cylinder engine camshaft position sensor location below ignition coil cover where coil cover say 2.4L TWIN camshaft sensor in that location below coil cover. you will see red or red white wires connected to it.

Hi, my name is John I will do my best to assist you.

To Remove

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the filtered air tube from the throttle body and air cleaner housing.
3. For SOHC engines, remove the air cleaner inlet tube.
4. For SOHC engines, detach the electrical connectors from the engine coolant sensor and the camshaft position sensor.
5. For DOHC engines, unplug the electrical connector from the camshaft position sensor.
6. For SOHC engines, remove the brake booster hose and the electrical connectors form the holders on the end of the cylinder head cover.
7. Unfasten the camshaft position sensor mounting screws, then remove the sensor.
8. Loosen the screw/bolt attaching the target magnet to the rear of the camshaft.

To Install: NOTE: The target magnet has 2 locating dowels which fit into the machined locating holes in the end of the camshaft.

1. Install the target magnet in the end of the camshaft. Tighten the retainer to 30 inch lbs. (3.4 Nm).
2. Install the camshaft position sensor. Tighten the sensor mounting screws to 80 inch lbs. (9 Nm).
3. For SOHC engines, place the brake booster hose and the electrical harness in the holders on the end of the valve cover.
4. Attach the electrical connector(s) to the camshaft position sensor and coolant temperature sensor (if necessary).
5. Install the air cleaner inlet tube and the filtered air tube.
6. Connect the negative battery cable.

CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR 2001 Dodge Truck RAM 1500 1/2 ton 2WD 5.9L SFI 8cyl The Camshaft Position Sensor is located: Under hood, center, upper engine area, rear of intake manifold, mounted in distributor

If this is helpful.Please leave ositive Feedback. Thanks, SnugglePants

the camshaft sensor is mounted on the camshaft housing located on the end of the cylinder head.

the camshaft position sensor is right around the crankshaft. there is a magnetic wheel at the end of the camshaft that the sensor uses to produce the signal.
