Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor

Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor:




The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor is a hall-effect sensor which is triggered by a magnet pressed into the camshaft sprocket. The CMP sensor provides a signal pulse once every camshaft revolution, known as the CMP sensor signal. The IC module uses this signal to identify the position of the # 1 cylinder at top dead center.
