CIRCUIT OPERATION
The camshaft position sensor is located on the front of the timing cover.

Circuit K7 supplies 5 Volts from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to the camshaft position sensor. The K7 circuit connects to cavity 17 of the Powertrain control Module (PCM).

Circuit K44 from the sensor provides an input signal to the PCM. The K44 circuit connects to cavity 18 of the PCM.

The PCM provides a ground for the camshaft position sensor signal (circuit K44) through circuit K4. Circuit K4 connects to cavity 4 of the PCM connector.
