Engine Component Description: Ignition

The V6 engine uses a coil-on-plug direct-ignition design. The camshaft position (CMP) sensor is mounted to the left-upper rear timing belt cover. The left camshaft sprocket has 3 spokes, or protrusions, incorporated into the rear of the sprocket that are used to create the camshaft sensor input signal. The dual-sensor crankshaft position (CKP) sensor assembly is located at the front of the engine at the oil pump housing. The timing belt drive sprocket has 22 spokes, or protrusions, incorporated into the rear edge of the sprocket that are used to create the crankshaft sensor input signal.
